There are several to choose from depending on whether&amp;nbsp;it's&amp;nbsp;a first baby, "they've been through three times already" or are giving birth at home.&amp;nbsp;The Deluxe LaborKit includes a&amp;nbsp;baby care DVD, &lt;A class="" href="http://www.liandrea.com/products.html" mce_href="http://www.liandrea.com/products.html"&gt;Bringing Baby Home&lt;/A&gt;, to help answer&amp;nbsp;every&amp;nbsp;question a&amp;nbsp;first-time mom and dad may&amp;nbsp;have. The DVD even includes a section on how Dad can bond with Baby. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P mce_keep="true"&gt;Also, since Dad is often the one excitedly trying to call all friends and family, each LaborKit includes a "Share the Joy" contact list to ensure Dad has all important phone numbers and emails handy when he's ready to share the joy&amp;nbsp;of the arrival of his new son or daughter.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P mce_keep="true"&gt;Gone are the days of dads sitting in the waiting room while mom gives birth in a ward down the hall. Dads are right there on the frontlines helping moms physically and emotionally. Plan ahead and be prepared -- it will&amp;nbsp;ease the anxiety that comes with labor and delivery and let both of you focus on the joy and excitement of welcoming your new baby into the world. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/aggbug.aspx?PostID=30" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/archive/tags/Hospital+Bag+Checklist/default.aspx">Hospital Bag Checklist</category><category domain="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/archive/tags/Hospital+Bag/default.aspx">Hospital Bag</category><category domain="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/archive/tags/new+baby/default.aspx">new baby</category><category domain="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/archive/tags/birth/default.aspx">birth</category><category domain="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/archive/tags/laborkit/default.aspx">laborkit</category><category domain="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/archive/tags/Dad+to+be/default.aspx">Dad to be</category><category domain="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/archive/tags/baby+shower+gift/default.aspx">baby shower gift</category><category domain="http://blog.hospitalbag.org/archive/tags/new+dad+prepared/default.aspx">new dad prepared</category></item></channel></rss>
