As I readied myself to be a new mom, my head was spinning with questions. There were so many things I didn’t know and didn’t even know to ask. One thing that came in handy was a list of things I should take to the hospital upon my delivery. You should have seen my suitcase before I saw this list; it looked like I was traveling aboard for at least a month. My delivery at Del Sol Medical Center was the best experience of my life; the nurses, doctors, and staff were amazing.
