Ontario Mamas

I know there are a few of you around. The "What to pack in your hospital bag" thread prompted me to check what my hospital requires. It says to bring a package of diapers and 4-6 receiving blankets. Does this mean that they don't provide ANY of these things at all?
Congrats to my TTC buddy Madeline! Cheering for all the strong 3T ladies!

Re: Ontario Mamas

  • Just take a tour of your hospital and you can get all of your questions answered. You can sign up for one anytime so if you're a planner and want to do it super early that's ok. You can ask what they provide, sleeping arrangements for your H, visiting hours, ets. Hospitals vary so much this is really the best way to know for sure.

  • I delivered in TO! 

    I would say that they gave us blankets to use there but didn't take any home. They're wrapped immediately and we weren't expected to provide those blankets. Diapers...probably got 6? Then had to provide them on their own!

    I delivered in Ottawa and they provided diapers, wash cloths not wipes, blankets, pads, vaseline, and baby and DH roomed in.
