What kind of things did you get from the hospital when you had the baby? I got a lot of offers for toys and formula. I got a few samples like pampers, powder and lotion.

Didnt know you get free samples when you go to the hospital. Thats a nice little perk.

I remember my mom bringing home a a bit of free stuff, pacifiers and other stuff. It didnt last to long. ;)

Ya. I got a bag off stuff to. Besides all the coupons and freebies, there was the discount for having the baby pictures done by whatever photographer had the contract for the hospital. There was also a lot of informational brochures on breast feeding, rashes, colic, and shot records.

I got a giant cup :). I like it. We also got a few bottles and brushes.

I didn't get anything for my children. :mad: But oh well. They turned out alright without them.

I don't recall getting anything. Must've started doing that after I'd already had my kids. I guess my daughter can look forward to some nice freebies though, that's a good thing.

With my son (born in AZ in 2002) I received some formula in a container and travel sizes, I think thats about all. With my girl (last year in SC) I got the container, a diaper bag, load of diapers and wipes, towels, blankets. :) I think oddly that AZ should have supplied more (being a more $ state), but then again - things work out funny like that.

They gave me formula which I promptly gave away because I was nursing him, diaper bag, and lots of coupons for formula. They sent home some parenting videos and stuff also.
