Pregnant after IF

Hospital Bag (SAIFW)

Okay, I am pretty sure I am over packed.  But am I missing anything? Or bringing anything that is completely not needed?

Baby Bag (as per previous post):
-Baby Wipes, Diapers, Vaseline, Shampoo/Soap (all told to bring by cheap a$$ hospital)
- 3 receiving blankets (for going home, in case 2 get spit up on)
- hand sanitizer
- newborn clothing: short sleeve onsie, long sleeve onsie, footed pants, footed sleeper, 2 pairs of socks, hat (all for going home - I have no idea if it will be warm or chilly outside)

DH bag:
- Pillow, sheet, blanket (all told to bring by hospital)
- 3 pairs boxers
- 3 pairs socks
- 3 t-shirts
- 1 jammie pants
- 1 sweater
- pants that he wears in to L&D
- toothbrush and paste
- deodorant
- gum/breath mints
- camera and charger
- cellphone
- snacks

My Bag:
- Hospital book and birth plan
- 6 underwear, 6 pairs socks, 3 sports bras
- pj's x 2
- 3 yoga pants
- 3 t-shirts
- sweatshirt
- flipflops (for shower and walking around room)
- towels x2 (so I don't have to use hospital tiny ones)
- pillow and extra pillowcase
- blanket (for making room seem more personal)
- soap (it was on the hospital list...)
- hand lotion
- pads  (hospital doesn't supply them)
- tensor bandage (to try and keep engorgement down as I will be EFF)
- contact lenses solution and case, glasses
- breast pads
- toilet paper (hospital kind is yucky)
- kleenex (oh so soft for all my tears)
- lip balm
- hair stuff (shampoo, gel, elastics)
- toothbrush
- deodorant
- heating pad and back massager (for during labour)
- razor

Did you make it to the end of my very long list?  lol. I should mention that I am packing lots just in case I have a c-section and I am in for 4 days.  We live a hour from the hosptial so it isn't to easy to run home to get something.  Maybe I should pack for only 2 days and have a second bag packed that my mom could pick up if I am in longer?  What do you think? And am I missing anything?
