Power strip is genius

This is a great video for mom or partner to pull a list together from! I can’t believe how many comments criticized this video because it was “too much” stuff. 🤦🏽‍♀️ Literally it is a hospital bag brainstorm sesh that really lays out some key items and potential comforts. My husband’s hospital bag from my previous pregnancy had quite a few of these things, but totally not all of them and certainly a different bag than other partners might want to have packed. My partner needed to make forays back home to take care of our dogs during the days I needed to stay at the hospital, so for him he packed light on clothes, snacks and toiletries for himself because he could get those things at home, especially since our house is 5 min from the hospital, but a dad who’s house is a 45 min drive may want a more robust supply of what might be considered essential for a mini vacay.

[@ThePaternalPartner]

Yes! Ya certainly don't need all these items; just for ideas. Thanks for the comment!

[@Pappysjuice]

Thank you for this 🙏🏻 expecting my baby girl in less than 7 weeks as a first time dad

[@izzyash123]

[@ThePaternalPartner]

Glad it was helpful! Good luck on the packing :)

This is fantastic hospital bag checklist for dads!!! Snacks was the most important thing on my husbands list 😂. He dedicated time to prepare snacks and sandwiches and didn’t get to eat any of them 😂😂

[@ThePaternalPartner]

That’s funny 😂 snacks is always the most important thing on my list

Keep up the good work man. We had fun doing this type of video but it’s not nearly as extensive!

[@ThePaternalPartner]

I’m going to check it out!

[@iantomcharlesworth]

At 37 weeks, taking notes

[@runitbackgaming503]

I wish this video was longer, could you do a more in-depth guide? Our babies due in February and I could use some help with corona guidelines

[@ThePaternalPartner]

Congratulations! February is a good time to have a baby. You can hunker down with your new baby and enjoy the time together. You can also check out the vid we did about birth during covid. Was our first vid: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6HWe4ujn7p6sMU

[@RhythmAndRibs]

It's my wife's due date today and my bag ain't packed. This is severe overkill lol

[@diomavin0230]

I appreciate this video

[@andeegonzales308]

This is wonderful, but do you have a pre-made check list? I'm setting my hubbies bag up, thank you!!

[@ThePaternalPartner]

No, but I should! Great idea!

[@andeegonzales308]

The video is wonderful, but it might just be easier to follow with written list as well, thank you!! 💞

[@bonitasmith5043]

Seriously this bag is bigga than mom and baby together🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ThePaternalPartner]

Hahaha yeah I don’t recommend taking EVERYTHING. Pick and choose what makes the most sense to you.

[@karenbachman5603]

so great!!! you forgot ONE thing! DOULA!!! How hilarious is you had a doula sitting off to side or right in the middle of the pile!

[@ThePaternalPartner]

We would’ve packed one, but they hate getting in those bags!

[@neri3376]

Came here because i wanna make sure my husband is very comfortable when I go in labor.

[@ThePaternalPartner]

That is hilarious 😂 Hey I totally understood your comment. ❤️

[@Josward.R]

This is the one !

[@ThePaternalPartner]

Hey Josward! Thanks for watching. When are y’all due?

[@bbdass4598]

This is hilarious. Dude packing for a staycation. Absolutely OTT. No you do not pack like this

[@ThePaternalPartner]

That’s funny! In the video, I say I do not recommend bringing everything here. This is to give dads ideas on items to bring. Pick and choose what makes most sense to your situation. My wife would absolutely hate the idea of an essential oil diffuser, but some women might find it very comforting. Hopefully you got some good ideas from it.

[@Sue_woop]

Must have a hard time hearing

[@lizcruz6638]

Better safe than sorry, the last thing you will want is to be in and out the hospital getting stuff

[@Daisy-id8bp]

....This is one nervous and anxious dad to be, by how he is packing!! Lol.. Your not gonna need most of these things, he over packed! 😁

[@ThePaternalPartner]

You’re not supposed to pack ALL of it. In the video, it says to not pack everything. Pick and choose what works best for you.

[@Utubeisazzho]

Settle up lol

[@user-fh1tn3pm8i]

This was so extra 🤦‍♂️

[@ThePaternalPartner]

Thanks!

[@johnsagewilson]

Dis tew much

[@ThePaternalPartner]

Nah man. Don’t take ALL of it!

[@stevej02]

“Birth partners” LOL you mean Dads.

[@ThePaternalPartner]

In most cases, yes!

[@ThePaternalPartner]

Not every birth has a dad in the picture.

[@Tunechi65]

Not ever mom has a dad. I know someone whose partner died before birth

[@Tunechi65]

Or you have your typical bum dad

[@stevej02]

@@ThePaternalPartner Yes, but every human on earth has one dad and one Mum, regardless of whether they dad is alive or has run away etc.
