Covering my backside

[LindaS 316]

I know a frequent question here is what to bring to the hospital, and I have a suggestion that I hadn't read before: loose fitting yoga pants.

The first night after surgery, I was up and walking around wearing a hospital gown with a second gown draped over my backside like a cape. I was too groggy to care if anything was viewable, but the nurse with me made sure I was covered. The next day, I wanted to be a bit more discrete.

The yoga pants were great because I didn't have to worry about revealing my backside when walking around. It also meant that I didn't have to show so much of my lower front side when nurses and doctors were checking on my incision sites. They were loose enough to accommodate all of the poking and prodding yet they kept my bum covered. They were also comfy for the car ride home.

I found some super comfy pants at Target in the maternity section. Yeah it kinda sucks that I have the body of a 9-month pregnant woman, but hey it won't be much longer! The pants are almost like coolots (sp?) with a loose fitting waist. I bought two pair. One for the plane ride and one for the trip home. Now I am thinking of wearing something else on the plane and saving a pair for the hospital?
