what is better to pack?

I wouldn't pack either, if you are just going to hospital I would wear their gowns, they are just going to be poking and prodding on you. Besides one less thing to decontaminate when you return home.

I was more comfortable in my own clothes. I'd recommend sleep pants and an oversized t-shirt.

I bought pj's with me, but ended up staying in the hospital gown. Between the IV's, the drain and all the other crap it was easier to stay in the hospital gown, but I did end up wearing my pj's home.

Two piece pj's. Even at the hotel it is easier for your tummy and more comfortable I think.

I would recommend pj's or sweats, 2 piece because they often come in to check your incisions and drain and it's much nicer to just pull up your shirt then having to hike your nightshirt up all the way.

For me I wore the hospital gowns in the hospital but pulled on an oversized pair of sweatpants when I wanted to walk the halls. Didn't want to worry about the booty hanging out lol I just pushed the front down under my belly so it didn't rub on anything. They also had big pockets which were great for putting the drain in when walking. Whatever you bring I definitely recommend pockets for that reason.

Since I had another 2 nights in the hotel after leaving the hospital I just lived in a comfy t-shirt and those big sweatpants. I had a hard time finding a good pair in the womens section so I just hit the mens section and found a great drawstring pair plenty big enough to give me comfort room while the belly was healing. I packed that set of clothes and something nice to wear just in case we wanted to go anywhere or go down and eat in the hotel.

I brought 3 nightgowns, and was so happy to have a clean fresh nighty to change into.
