After you pee on the stick (or five if you are anything like me) and get your double line, plus sign, or the indisputable “pregnant” reading, you typically have about 8 months left before D-day. That is a lot of time to prepare emotional and physical for baby. You may need a new car if you are adding baby number 2 or 3 to the family. You may need more space in your home or need to move things around to clear out space for your new addition. You will most likely be decorating and/or painting your baby’s space. You will probably read a book or two telling you what to expect throughout your pregnancy and tracking your baby’s growth, and the changes in your body. And while prep for baby is obviously the most important thing to consider, you can’t forget to prepare for Delivery Day as well! You can certainly call your many mom friends to find out what you’ll need, or use your past experience and knowledge to get your bag ready, or you can simplify your efforts by purchasing the Push Pack! Obviously invented by a mommy, the Push Pack covers all the bases and provides you with the essentials for your trip to the hospital.

Laura Magu, owner of Small Batch Studio, created the Push Pack after the delivery of her daughter. After trying to figure out what she needed to take with her to the hospital, she realized there was a real need for moms to simplify the process. She began giving pre-packed bags away as gifts for baby showers and everyone wanted to know where to get one. One thing led to another and Laura Magu went from mommy to mompreneur. The Push Pack is a pre-packed hospital labor bag that includes only natural or organic products, and is the perfect gift for your next baby shower, or for yourself. The great thing is that Laura thought of everything! When I saw that she included oatmeal, I didn’t really understand why, until she noted on her website that oatmeal actually helps with milk production! Plus, the food and perishables are not purchased and added to the Push Pack until after you place your order–only the best for mommy! The coolest thing is that if you buy a Push Pack, not only are you making delivery day easier for yourself or an expecting mom in your life, you are also supporting yet another creative mompreneur! Us mamas need to stick together!
