Ha...I didn't get this "swag" either. I got a peri bottle, very few super crappy pads, and the plastic seat that goes over the toilet to wash in (can't remember the name). Oh and my one pair of disposable undies.

Jennibean5, you didn't happen to deliver in Canada did you? I can't forget that yes, I did get the 1 pair of disposable undies-I hear you get 2 pair with a c-section though!

We get a box. Formula samples or a hand breast pump, lots of pads, both sanitary and for the bed, a stack of mesh undies (which I LOVE), the peri bottle, and various other items. A group of local ladies put together some things like tshirts, hand-knitted hats, etc.

No anon #3, I was in NY. And the nurse actually told me they were only allowed to give 1 pair to everyone.

Where I live we don't get a postpartum hospital bag. All the "swag" we get is a perri bottle, however that works great if you make your own baby wipes and solution for storing the solution and then sprtizing the baby wipes.
