It has been three years since I packed my delivery bag for twins and headed to the hospital. I guess you could say this post is long overdue, but that is most of my to-do list with toddler twins running around.

Delivery Bag for Twins: What You Need to Pack for YOU and the twins

What to Pack in a Delivery Bag
for Twins

We’ll pretend I used all that time to think about what you need to pack in a hospital bag for twins in order to make this the best twin hospital packing checklist ever.

Plus, I recently turned it into a printable delivery bag checklist that you can grab at the end of this post!

Hospital Packing List for Mom

First, what to pack in a Delivery Bag for Twins that is for YOU! It’s better to be over prepared than under prepared, especially if you don’t live close to the hospital.

#1 Carry-on bag or large bag to fit all the items listed below.

#2 Loose comfortable nightgown or nursing nightgown

#3 Change of clothes for going home, unless you don’t mind leaving in your nightgown.

#4  Flip-flops, slippers, or slipper socks because sadly that swelling isn’t going away once the babies are delivered. At least it didn’t for me.

#5 Giant comfy underwear you don’t care about. No thongs and nothing fancy that you plan to wear again because those super-sized maternity pads aren’t always the greatest. Even when worn with those stylish mesh protector panties.

#6 Lotion, lip balm, hair tie/clip/headband, hairbrush, toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, deodorant.

It’s just nice to feel refreshed after all the work of delivering twins honestly. I had to soak in a tub each day I was in the hospital but will admit that I didn’t fully put myself together until the day I went home.

#7 Pillow if you prefer you own comfortable pillow over what the hospital will provide.

#8 Camera, smartphone, and chargers. For all those twin baby photos you’ll be taking, obvs.

#9 Nursing Bra, nursing pads, and nipple cream if you will be nursing.

#10 Documents you will need including insurance cards, social security cards, or anything else the hospital requires you to provide. I brought along a folder with everything in it, and it worked well for ALL the paperwork the hospital gave me too.

#11 Thank You Cards for nurses, and if you want to get a head start on the gifts visitors brought in.

#5 Preemie outfit for each baby. I didn’t have this with me because of the size my twins weighed in at pre-delivery. Even then, newborn clothes were a bit big so hubby ran out and picked up preemie outfits for them. You just never so it’s nice to have these on hand just in case.

#6 Booties or socks, and hand mittens.

#7 Jackets, hats, or whatever the twins need based on the weather when you deliver.

#8 Boppy Pillow and this can go on both lists because it comes in handy for holding, nursing, and comfort while sleeping!

Guess what?! I recently turned this awesome hospital packing list for twins into a printable so you can prepare for the big day! Grab it below and get packing!
