Yay! Good luck! I packed gossip magazines....I didn't have the energy to mess with my ipad. I packed very loose pj pants and very loose top and bra for when I went home. Pack a blow dryer too, for after your daily showers. My hospital didn't have one and I had to let my hair air dry which I thought would make me sick (catch a cold - prob an old wives tale).

Recovery will be long and boring!!! So be prepared!

Good luck!!!! Prayers going your way!!!

Yes get those, I know some people say they don't/can't help but I took them almost immediately after surgery and I never had any gas pains...Could be just luck but whatever....

Oh and my glade plug in!! I loved that, I don't like the smell of a hospital!

Good luck! I was in for two days & had no desire to get on my iPad, my cell w/charger was good enough. I wore something comfortable to the hospital ( I only kept it on for about 30 minutes) so I wore the same thing home. Don't overpack. I brought flip flops for the shower. Hospitals are full of germs.

See ya on then other side. I am seven weeks postop and I have never had a one minute of regret.

Definitely lip balm, baby Shampoo (used it as body soap too), baby wipes (I just felt gross even with showering), and I felt a lot more comfortable with a loose comfy pair of shorts to wear under my gowns.

I'm going to double check with my surgeon again, but seems to me he said that it's typically a one night hospital stay...can't imagine taking much for just one night. Maybe it was two.........hmmm. I'd rather stay two nights to be sure everything is ok!
