Fit2btied 122 Posted September 24, 2013 What did you wear in the hospital for the time you were there? Did you put pj pants on? Wear yogas during the day? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Macy6 356 Posted September 24, 2013 I wore the gown the first day but got up and showered and put on my pajamas the second day and left those on until I showered the next morning and I put on yoga pants and a shirt to go home in. It was nice to be in my stuff and I was comfy. 1 Fit2btied reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bufflehead 6,358 Posted September 24, 2013 I wore hospital gowns the entire time. Usually just one, but if I was leaving my room to walk I put on a second one facing backwards to make sure I wasn't flashing people. I had an IV pole and a drain the first day I was there - I think it would have been hard for me to maneuver with those things in anything other than a hospital gown. 1 TonyaA reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arts137 1,811 Posted September 24, 2013 I wore the gown and a robe when I walked (to cover my exposed behind). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J.Diesel 220 Posted September 24, 2013 Gown with shorts on underneath the first day and the 2nd and 3rd days I wore comfy jogging shorts and a long sleeve t-shirt...(hospitals are really cold). You'll feel better after you take a shower the next day and you'll want to put on some regular clothes. So bring your most comfy (loose) clothes and you'll be fine.

newat52 1,613 Posted September 24, 2013 I wore my hospital gown and had a pretty pink robe with me that my hubby put over my shoulders to walk in. I did so well that I got to go home the next day. Good luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JerseyGirl68 1,172 Posted September 24, 2013 What did you wear in the hospital for the time you were there? Did you put pj pants on? Wear yogas during the day? I had a cathedar post-op until the next morning, so I stayed in the hospital gown and a robe when I was walking (the hospital gown was actually a side-tying one so no exposure and it was pretty comfortable). When the cathedar came out,I showered it was stretch pants and a soft top until I went home. I stayed comfy for the next few days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bufflehead 6,358 Posted September 24, 2013 That's right Fit2btied! Especially since with all those IV fluids I was using the toilet just about every hour! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marfar7 1,533 Posted September 25, 2013 I too just wore the hospital gown for the enritre 48 hrs. I had an iv most of the time and its a pain for the nurse to string it thru the sleeve of ur own clothes. I forgot I was evn having tummy surgery and brought jeans to go home in. Thankfully they were jeans that were a little loose. But I should've brought something stretchier Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
