packing/ prepping for hospital
I packed underwear, pajamas, iPad, phone, charger, pillow, and teddy bear Did not need pj's as I was more comfortable in the hospital gown, but definitely glad I had it. Took toiletries but just used wet wipes. Pillows always seem to be a problem in hospitals so I'm glad I had mine. My room was super cold I wish I had brought my warm, comfy blanket. Not just for warmth but comfort and security as well.

Gas pain
I find lying on my left side helps or just pressure on the left side. I'm back at work already so when the pain gets bad I just close my door and lay on my chair with a pillow against my side and that provides some relief
