NICU nurse here! No one’s gonna judge you for bringing a suitcase, they’ll just automatically know this is your first time! 🤣 all jokes aside, you do what makes you feel prepared and comfortable girl!! The hospital will also have pretty much everything you’ll need 💖

Your baby boy is gonna be so cute can’t wait for you guys to show him. “WHATS UP DUDES” never gets old

Great job filming Abby, I'm impressed!! I'm a retired nurse, worked many years in postpartum/ nursery...... Most all new Moms pack a little extra, but it's what you want and what makes you comfortable. You are very thoughtful in choosing what to bring for all three of you!! I'm sending you good vibes for an uncomplicated, easy delivery! Can't wait to meet your Little Dude!! All of God's Blessings to all of you 💜

I had my first baby 3 months ago. I packed my hospital bag & pretended I was going on a fun trip. The nurses told me that staying positive is the key to having a good labor & delivery. Having a good mindset WILL help you have a good outcome!💝

From a first time mom all of your after care stuff can stay at home!!!! The hospital provides everything and you can ask for extras! Trust me! I packed the same kit and didn't use any of it except socks. Have the after birth care already set up in your bathroom at home before you leave so you don't have to worry about it when you get home after having your little dude, It took way too much space. Bring everything home that the hospital gives you includong diapers!

I haven't watched the whole video yet, but in my experience I barely used anything I brought in my hospital bag! Our hospital was amazing and provided allll the diapers and wipes for our son, ice pack pads for me and really all the postpartum care things, and anything else that I might have potentially needed as a new mama! So your mom is right - just anything you would need to go overnight somewhere! ❤ You got this, mama! You look absolutely beautiful!

Being a first time mom is a lot but you’re going to do great! I’d HIGHLY recommend bringing a blanket and your own pillow! That was one of the best things I brought and made me feel more comfortable and at home which is all you really want after going through labor! Praying for you guys and baby💙

A little trick I learned from when I had my kids (they are 19, 17 and 15) is when I needed cooling pads, for breasts or down there care. I was told to wet a diaper so it swells up and place it in the freezer. Works wonders as a cold pack. I have loved following your pregnancy journey. You "dudes" are the best qnd my favorite youtubers!!

Hey girl, love you! And I can’t wait to see your little baby boy! But let’s just take a moment to appreciate the fact that Abby still puts effort into videos even while she is about to have a kid! Can’t wait to see this little baby boy grow up by the best parents, and the kindest ones!

Honestly for a first time mama, I think you did a phenomenal job!! You’re so precious, and as a mom of two I find these “pack with me” with pregnant FTMs to be the sweetest things!

I packed just like Abby for my first delivery, and used like, 2 things the whole time 🤣 it ended up being more to unpack after we got home than I wanted to, BUT, every single new mom wants to feel prepared. You learn as you go. Maternal instincts kicked in and Abby’s will too! You got it, girl! Xoxox

Girl! I feel this video in my soul from when my daughter was born. It’s going to depend on your hospital. A lot of the stuff that you’ve packed, my hospital gave me. Don’t feel bad for taking the things they give you. You’ll understand when you get your bill. The nipple shields you may not need. It all depends how lil dude latches. My daughter struggled to latch so I used shields with every feeding, my son on the other hand only needed to use it for the first few days or whenever my nipples were sore/raw. I have so much I could tell you that no one told me when I went in! I would also suggest Tuks pads and/or earth mama perineal spray. That stuff saved my life!

You can always call the hospital and ask what they have available for postpartum supplies! I've never seen a hospital that doesn't supply all that but its always good to check :)

Prayers and blessings to your unborn child. You guys will be the best parents to him, with your undying curiosity of the world.

About to be 33 weeks with my baby boy! 💙 Praying for a healthy and safe delivery for us both! 💙💙

How exciting! A few tips… -pack 0-3 month as well for clothes in case he’s on the bigger end -nipple shields can help with latching but aren’t necessary for everyone -ask your doctor what they provide for postpartum care..you may not need to bring pads and ice packs -oh and outfits for the baby that have hand covers already built in are great! Mittens can fall off so easily but maybe you’ll like them 🙂 -snacks are great to have -bring some headphones

Cant wait to see your little one! Good wishes for the last weeks. Would also recomend: preagnancy pillow, a good bottle for water/drink, slippers for the shower, lipbalm, notebook to remember all the details from birth

You did an AWESOME job filming girl! I do have to say though, yes, you did over pack and you'll realize that once your ready to come home but ya know what? I think every 1st time mom did the same thing. I know I did! Lol so you pack whatever makes you feel comfortable with that way your not stressing on the way to the hospital wondering if you forgot something. Some of the things you packed the hospital will have already provided you with but thatsbok you'll need that stuff when you get home. You did do a great job packing and thinking of everything and everyone lol. Wishing you the best of luck and cannot wait to see little dude. You guys are gonna be wonderful parents!!! Love you guys!!!

I’m so exited to see little dude, he is coming into a wonderful family and he is so lucky!!! Good luck Abby you are in my prayers!

Girl, it was so fun getting to see you do a solo vlog for a change! You are the cutest thing and you and Matt are going to make the cutest parents to the cutest little dude!! I’m so excited for you both and am glad to be brought along for this journey🤩☺️Y’all are the best!❤️

I’d recommend packing a heating pad or heating blanket for your back! I just watched a labor/delivery video where they used one during the contractions and said it was very comforting so i immediately put it on my hospital bag list!!

Praying for a safe and healthy baby and mama for the rest of the pregnancy journey! Also abby is glowing in this video! She is so pretty! Cant wait to see lil dude!

I’m 33 w pregnant with baby #3 (also in AZ) and I feel you on the breathlessness and the HEAT 😂 If you have a nursing pillow, I recommend bringing that because it works so much better than bunching up bed pillows. Good luck with your delivery!

We love following along on your journey. It's a family event sitting down and watching you guys. I'm a mom of 2 and I think you're doing great! The hospital has everything you need. Make sure you have Matt pack WARM clothes...the hospital rooms are freezing!! My husband was in a hoodie the whole time! God Bless!

I’m so excited to see the baby! You guys will be the best parents!

You’re doing great, Abby! Better to have a little more than not enough. Love and prayers to you, Matt, and lil Dude!

I’m so excited for y’all. over all I hope y’all have a healthy baby! Abby your literally so strong girl I know you got this! 💖 love yalllll!!

Love you guys! Just had my first baby 6 weeks ago 🥰 bring a reusable tote bag or duffel bag to take all the things from the hospital you can(postpartum supplies, diapers, wipes, everything that they give you in your room you can take home) so excited for you and prayers for a safe and easy delivery! 🥰🥰

Omg just clicked so fast. So happy for another video!

Today I couldn't be able to stop myself from commenting. 1 and half year back I randomly saw your video on KZfaq where you guys were watching your wedding video . I felt so good and I subscribed your channel right after that . After that I watched every single video of you guys and I felt so goodddd and The moment you guys revealed about your pregnancy I became so much happier and this journey throughout was so amazing and inspiring for me . You guys are living very simple yet the most beautiful life and today watching this video made me Emotional. I said in one of the previous video that little dude is going to be blessed with best parents and today i will repeat that again . I am so happy for you guys . Abby and Matt wish you a very smooth and beautiful journey ahead ♥️

So glad you are taking us along for the journey! Praying for you and the baby and for a safe and wonderful delivery 💞

I’m so excited for y’all! Your family is growing so much and I pray the baby boy is happy and healthy!

Abby you’re seriously the cutest human being. I genuinely feel like you’re a friend to me with just how genuine your personality is!! I love that you & Matt are able to create those type of connections ❤️ few more weeks!! Praying for a healthy baby and delivery!!

You did awesome Abby! May God bless you with a safe labor and delivery, and may God be with you all, and guide you all the days of your life and through this parenting journey. God bless hunn, with God on your side you both got this all ! Sending love !

As excited & energetic as Abby is in this video I would expect her to go into labor within 24 hours. Can hardly wait for this baby to be born I feel like an expectant grandma for her.

I love abby vlogging on her own while matts away. you go girl! such a sweet vlog to include us in. I'm so happy for you.

Awww I’m soo excited for the little dude to be here soon!! I have been with you guys since the start and have enjoyed every minute of yalls amazing journey! Ily guys, and hope for a safe, happy and healthy birth! 🤍🤍🤍

Don’t forget to bring a large duffel bag to get stuff from the hospital to put in, so excited for you guys!

It feels like yesterday when y'all announced the pregnancy. Wishing the best for you and lil' dude during delivery!

I'm genuinely so happy for you guys! It's crazy how time went by, and how the baby is going to be here!!! Thank you for sharing such a beautiful and heartwarming experience! ❤

Love this! So excited to see the baby! You guys will be awesome parents! I am looking forward to seeing all the videos with him!

So excited for y'all! Honestly, I packed way too much for my first baby but I was in the same mindset of "better safe than sorry". Also, all hospitals are different as far as what they provide and what they'll allow you to wear and use. Praying for a safe and easy delivery! 💙

I was just crossed trained on the labor and mom/baby floors and many parents brought suitcases so you definitely won’t be the only one. You have a great, positive attitude and I’m sure you’re going to raise a sweet little one!

Good lucky Abby! I had my baby boy May 19th and it’s the most incredible experience. Jack is my first baby so I watched all the hospital bag videos and definitely overpacked too😂 I would say the best thing I brought was a delivery dress. I didn’t wear it during delivery but I wore it after and was much more comfortable. Also a portable charger so I didn’t have to be plugged in to a wall. Definitely bring shower stuff and an extra bag to bring home hospital stuff💙

Can’t believe how fast this went felt like yesterday when you suprises Matt that your pregnant can’t wait till this little boy comes into this world 🤍🌍💋

You did a great job, Abby! And you do a great job filming. I love how sweet you are and you always know what to film. You and Matt are going to be awesome parents. I hope your labor, child birth and after goes as well as possible. I’ll be praying for a healthy birth experience for you and baby and a fast recuperation. 💞

Ahhh he’s so close to arriving!! So exciting with you 💕 Blessings for a safe and healthy delivery 🫶

I love how Abby and Liana jade were pregnant at the same time! So excited to see both these cuties

God bless you Abby. So glad you have brought all us dudes along on this journey with you, Matt, and baby dude. May the Lord bless with a healthy baby!

AHHHH IM SO EXCITEDDD I have been following along this journey since day 1! So happy you had a good pregnancy and also wow you are good at packing!

Thank you for sharing this video! I’ll be packing mine soon! I’ll definitely be taking something to smell fresh as well. The labor and delivery nurse at our birthing class did say to be careful with perfumes, because they can be too much for babies’ little noses, but you can always double check with your provider as well!🥰

Super excited for the baby I can't wait to see you guys even more happy 😊

Mama of 4 here! You defiantly don't need to pack any after care stuff for the hospital, in fact it would be much more convenient to have it all organized and accessible for when you get home. I feel like in general less is more, someone can usually bring you things if you need them, or Matt can run home later, but you don't want to have to unpack a bunch of stuff when you get home, you will be exhausted. Also you can eat when you are in labor, it can make a big difference if you are running low on energy. Best wishes to you and Matt, parenting is an amazing, crazy journey!

SO EXCITED FOR YOUR BABY!!! I wish you comfort during the rest of your pregnancy!

Abby, you are so sweet and so pretty. You made a perfect vlog by yourself. I am so excited to see pictures/videos of little dude. I hope that labor and delivery goes smoothly and that your baby boy is happy and healthy. I can't believe he's going to be here soon!! I'm so excited for you and Matt. Becoming parents is the best feeling in the world.

You did such an amazing job filming alone, Abby! And as a professional newborn nanny, I think you did an excellent job packing the baby’s bag. I swear by the shusher - it’s works like magic!

I'm so excited for you guys 🥰 I have 2 boys and with my first, I packed EVERYTHING you could imagine 😆 with the second one, I took my robe, phone, charger, a sports bra, a dress to go home in (in case of c-section, thankfully didn't happen), socks, an outfit for the baby, and my blanket 🤣 the hospital has almost everything you need! You're gonna have the best time delivering that baby and getting him in your arms 💙💙💙💙

Awesome! Every time you post I get instantly happier! I can’t wait to see your baby! Have a great day and Happy Fathers Day to Matt

I’m always sad when your videos are over! From the little bit I know about you both, I think you’re going to make amazing parents. Can’t wait to see where the future takes you! Also, I agree! Be as prepared as possible.

Would love to see a video afterwards about what you’re glad you packed, what you didn’t need, and what you wished you packed. Y’all are doing amazing and I can’t wait to see y’all become parents!

I love to be a part of this amazing journey! Can't wait to see your healthy baby Matt and Abby 🤗

It's so close!!! Eke! I can see where Little Dude has dropped, preparing for his appearance 😊 You did great packing 💖

OMG I AM LITERALY SO EXCITED TO SEE YOUR BABAY YOU DONT WVEN KNOW I HAVE BEEN WAITING AND HAVE BEEN WATCHING YOU FOR SOOOOOOOOO LONG. I have never been more excited to see a baby, I love you guyyyyssss soo much good luck with your baby sense he is about to come!🥰😙

The suitcase looks great! I also packed a heating pad because my back was aching. My doctor also let me eat hard candies so my husband got me some of those. I bought all the aftercare stuff but my hospital provided everything and everything was really great so I literally used all their things. They even provided binkies for the baby, nipple cream for me the disposable underwear etc. Bring whatever makes you happy because it’s better to have it then not! Good luck guys, you guys are going to do great!!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY MATT. I wish you all the best.

Hi! The sound machine will definitely help in the hospital! We used one even to help us sleep for all the late night nurse visits. Even with my second baby I felt like I didn’t pack enough clothes for him! Especially boys, they love to just pee when the cold air hits them while changing them. I think my son probably peed on most of not all of his outfits so definitely pack extra outfits for him just in case so no one has to run home! We lovvveee the three days we get in the hospital (I’ve had c sections both times) and my husband never wants to leave to run home to grab anything if he doesn’t need to and we always doordash food to us🤪

Congratulations and all the best for a new beginning and a baby ❤❤ May your baby boy be extremely healthy!

Making videos with a baby almost coming?! Wow, Abby! We all appreciate it so much. I hope the birth is safe and will go well. Thank u for the amazing vids!

I’d highly recommend bringing your boppy pillow with you! It’s nice while learning to breastfeed but also setting him in!

This is the earliest I have ever been to a video of your guys. I love your content, always make my day that bit brighter with your positivity! Thank you guys, I’m sure everything will go amazing for your little dude with you as parents. 🤗

You are adorable!! And I love how you and Matt take care of each other!!

💙Nesting 💙 I loved doing all of it, going through clothes, packing for the hospital. Can't wait for you to meet your sweet baby boy 🤗

So excited for your baby to be here soon!!! Don’t overthink about overpacking Abby, I’m sure all moms do that ❤️

I used a suitcase that big and it was absolutely full in fact I had two bags aswell you can never be to prepared when having a baby your going to be an awesome mumma and I'm so excited for you sending all my love x

You and Matt are so stinking cute. Excited for you and your little one's arrival. Wishing you all happy safe delivery

10/10 would recommend bringing a Bluetooth speaker and playing music during labor and delivery. I made a playlist and I loved having music playing, especially during contractions. You’re gonna do great and Matt is going to be the best supporter🥰

YOU’RE SO CLOSE! Going to be the best parents. Congratulations!

The lil' dude is so so lucky to have such great parents! I'm so exited for you guys!

I would for sure bring a blanket! I got super cold while delivering my baby girl. I know that the hospital has some, but having a little piece of home is worth it! I'm so excited for you guys ❤

It is crazy to be with you guys like all the way from pregnancy test to packing to hospital!

IM SO EXCITED FOR YALLLLLL. ITS GETTING SO REAL. SO PROUD OF YALL. YOU GOT THIS ;)❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

OMG I can’t freaking wait to see the baby! You guys are so cute! Love you guys!!!

The ball is a great idea!!! I used mine in labor like the entire time between my legs laying in the bed and it made a world of difference for the pain, it actually helped me sleep. ☺️🙏 Very happy for you two!

Love you Abby! I’m so excited for you guys! You are so adorable and I know you are going to be a fantastic mother! 💗 🌹🙏🏻

SOOO excited to see this next journey!! Love you guys so much a rn so excited to meet little dude!!

Can’t wait for lil dude to come, so excited, y’all are gonna be the best parents!

One of the best parts about newborn life is they sleep through almost anything! So the little shusher may not be necessary :) prayers for a smooth and safe delivery! So excited for you guys, it’s just the best thing in the world to see their little face for the very first time 🥲

Love all your videos! You and Matt are so amazing

So so excited for you and Matt! 💙

I wish you all the best! You guys are going to be great parents!

I always like to be over prepared than under!! Also I just started third trimester and found this very helpful!! Thank you so much, so excited for y’all!!

I love watching all of your videos! I am not sure if you have it on the list or already packed but I would definitely recommend bringing one of your own blankets from home (like a comfy throw) not sure if the hospital provides you with one but I know I always feel more relaxed when I have my own blankets with me :) cannot wait for lil dudes arrival!!! And you LOOK BEAUTIFUL!!!!
