Reberm 29 Posted June 9, 2013 It was nice to have my pillow and a furry blanket. Bring your phone and maybe a book. I was so groggy I really didn't read much. Besides that just your basic toiletries and wear lounge clothes. They give you those non skid socks to put on so I really didn't need slippers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iniysa 157 Posted June 9, 2013 Surgery Monday! Clear liquids tomorrow. I'm freaking out. Any packing suggestions for the hospital stay?? I'm Monday as well. I am going to bring a robe, slippers, hair ties, phone, charger, laptop, small firm pillow to hold against my stomach while getting in and out of bed and to put between my stomach and the seatbelt on the way home. I will also be taking GasX dissolvable. I will wear my loose fitting clothes there and then just wear them back again. (With a pair of clean panties of course. ) 3 nicolenik17, nursesettie and Longie339 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
