I think the only things I brought that I used were my phone and charger and a couple of hygiene items.

I wore comfy clothes there and wore the same ones home. I wore the hospital gown with another one going the other way so I could walk the halls. Didn't use a robe. The nurses put those non-slip socks on me.

I did use my own face wash and toothbrush. And my hairbrush. I brought lip balm (my mouth and lips were really dry) but the hospital provided lip moisturizer for me to use and I just used that one.

I brought my heating pad because when I had my gallbladder out years ago I had a lot of gas pain afterwards. I didn't have those pains this time, I had a morphine drip and it was awesome.

Some people bring books and things to do but honestly I didn't feel like concentrating on anything like that. I watched tv. I slept. I peed. I walked the halls. That was it.

I stayed 2 nights and was glad I did. Most people only stay one night. You really don't need much.

I packed my phone, phone charger and 2 change of clothes. I was a wreck after surgery I didn't touch anything in my bag until the day I left. Just wore the hospital gown for 3 days lol. Pack very light.

I couldn't wear a robe because of the IV in my arm. Other than that, tooth brush, tooth paste, phone charger, underwear, sleep pants, slippers, my CPAP and my cell phone.

Pillows, a robe, a phone charger, and lotion. Couldn't concentrate or stay awake long enough for books or movies. Pack light. I brought way too much stuff that I didn't need.
