I don't think you need to do anything. I went with a bag of crap and needed nothing. They even supplied the robe.. I did prefer my own tooth brush, but I was only there 2 days and was walking most of that time and trying to sip on 1-2 ounces of Water. Don't bring anything of value.. No phones or Ipads etc. My sister had her Ipad stolen during her surgery, but eventually found it when the only person she saw in the room somehow found it in the laundry.. :-) I don't think you'll even need the PJ's. Johnnies and a robe and little slipper socks were all provided to me. Like I said, I had brought all of that, but it was unnecessary.. Good luck, this is the BEST gift you could ever give yourself..

I think every hospital is different. I was told to take a shower, but not to scrub my belly with anything particular. I was told to bring comfortable clothing that I would not be upset if they got blood on them. As a precaution, I would take at least some basic things like the tooth brush and a sweater or bathrobe.

The thing I used the most actually was a retractable back scratcher. The pain meds they gave made me a bit itchy and was sooo happy for it. I was also happy for my phone, ipad and stretchie pants. I really didn't need much else.

Best of luck!!!

I did bring my phone which was nice to have but I was too tired for any other diversions. lol I pretty much slept/drank/peed/walked and then by the time your done you're ready for another nap! I did enjoy having my own robe but it's not necessary, mine is very long so when I draped it behind me I felt safely covered and also if you are not big on sleeping with their slipper socks on it was nice to have slip on slippers from home (def not a necessity but I don't like asking for help to put them on every time I need to get up). Oh, and definitely bring some type of chapstick/carmex, it is so dry in the hospital! Hmmm, I can't think of anything else you might need! Good luck!
