Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted June 28, 2016 Hello! I am trying to get prepared ahead of my surgery date and make sure what I should pack in my bag? Any suggestions? Thank you in advance! Clean underwear to wear home (I wore the clothes that I wore to the hospital home).Chapstick Biotene spray A pillow for the ride home Phone/charger. My mom went to the hospital with me so I gave her my phone with strict instructions not to give it back to me until I was no longer loopy. She used it to keep my friends in the loop via text since a few wanted updates. A hot pad. The best thing I took was my mom! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jj7481 363 Posted June 28, 2016 As little as possible. I took my charger for iPhone/iPad, clean pair of undies, and socks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
