NEED SOME HELP
Lip Balm!!! a must you're lips will be so dry and flakey!! also deoderant hahah I forgot mine and YUCK!! my doctor let us bring mouth wash but i didnt use it instead i asked the nurse to give me a swab i could dip in water to wet my mouth, that was on the 2day in the hospital since you cant drink anything the 1-2 day
i wuld bring sweats and a shirt and I had my time of month in there so i brought my own pads
/ underwear, no way was I gonna use the crappy net underware the hospital gives out hahha
and I brought my IPAD but it was little use since i was sore and tired the first few days there.
I wish you the best!!! Im so glad I got my surgery!!

Yep!! Don't overpack!! I stayed in their gown the whole 3 days. I took clothes to go home in, toothbrush & toothpaste, chapstick (nivia - i'm addicted), slippers, hairbrush, deoderant and a robe to walk the halls in - they will make you walk so be prepared and that was about all I needed. I did overpack though because I took pajamas that I never wore, makeup that I never wore, etc!! Lol!!
I brought my bathrobe, I could put one arm thru and draped it over the other shoulder, it was warmer than putting on a 2nd gown backwards over the 1st gown, lip balm, hairbrush, the hospital provided me with toiletries, slippers, etc. The only thing I wish I would have brought was a neck pillow, you know the kind shaped like a horseshoe? That would have been wonderful those first few days trying to sleep sitting up....
A wrap around robe for your walks in the hallway it gives you room for the IV and you are covered. LIP BALM thats a must. Hair brush, toothbrush and any other toleries you want to bring. Some people bring gas strips. I got gas drops when I was there. Slippers, I wore flip flops. Wear loose comfortable clothes to the hospital because when you go home anything snug will put pressure on your belly. i wore a flannel shirt and exercise pants. Cell phone and charger. A neck pillow is a good idea. Walking and sipping will get you out there the quickest. Are you going to be on a liquid peo-op diet?
