Your favorite drink! IF anyone asks what you want- ask them to grab your favorite coffee or tea or a gift card to your favorite place. This gives you somewhere to go to get out of the house as well.
Your memories. Photos, trinkets, anything tangible you can hold to grieve and mourn.
EXCEDERIN EXTRA STRENGTH. The crying… all the crying it hurts so much. Make sure to follow instructions on how much to take and how often.
A journal and your favorite pens or pencils. You will need a way to express yourself and writing is the easiest and most effective way to do it sitting down or laying down. OR use a voicerecorder on your phone if you just want to talk into it.
A nice candle to burn in honor of your baby. I found this to be healing when I was journaling or spending time in her corner where all her stuff was. It was comforting to hear the wick flicker ( i love the woodwick candles).
1 or 2 comfort outfits that you can wear that are ok to go out in public in- I wore my maternity dress because it was the most comfortable. You will spend a lot of time going back and forth for the first couple days. Don’t overthink it or make extra decisions.
