1 teeny oxygen tank, infant bag & mask
home birth bag containing: IV supplies, suture equipment, catheter, gloves, extra instruments, soap for cleaning instruments
visit bag: BP stuff, gloves, doppler (not pictured)
In addition to this, all women receive a box of supplies for the delivery or postpartum period from the company that is doing their care in the home for the first week. As far as I can tell the box is the same whether or not you are having a planned homebirth or hospital birth. It contains blue pads, gauze, pads, cotton balls. Everything you need postpartum ;)
the tiniest O2 tank ever! i can't imagine that would last long. their supplies make ours look excessive. do you think we over-pack, or are there things at Dutch homebirths that you wish you had?
ReplyDeletei LOVE that they have such great post partum care.
miss you jill! take care. xo
i am a midwife in canada trying to track down the type of birth bag you have... any idea where i could find one? thanks for your help!
