I was in the hospital for less than 24 hours, so I really did not need much. My number one thing was pajama pants to wear with my hospital gown so my backside was not hanging out while I walked the halls. I also used the previously mentioned chapstick, Biotin mouth spray, phone, iPad, and charger. The hospital had toothbrush and toothpaste. I did not shower during my short stay. I wore the same comfy clothes home that I had worn to the hospital.
Hope your surgery and hospital stay are boring and short!

I was freezing, so I wore the slip resistant socks over my knee high socks. 🤣 One of nurses cracked up at how bundled up I was. I get cold easily though and it was really cold in my hospital room.

Oh, and bring a pillow to hug on the ride home...helps to hold over your tum when you go over bumps!

you're not going to need much because they'll have you in a hospital gown and slip-resistant socks, and you're probably going to sleep much of the time you're there. Phone and charger for sure. And wear comfy, easy-to-put-on clothes that you can wear home, too.

I brought a robe (it gets cold in the hospital rooms), knee high socks, an extra long phone cord charger and my laptop computer! I was hooked up. I would bring chapstick and face wipes if I did it again though. Other than that - you should be set.
Good luck!!

+1 for the chapstick
i also brought a bottle of Biotin spray for the unbelievably sore/dry throat that i woke up with after the surgery.
(everything else I brought was left untouched in my overnight bag...well except my phone)

I'll also add chapstick to the list! You really don't need much though. You will have surgery, then pretty much sleep on and off for the next 24 hours!

Exciting!
I appreciated having baby/feminine wipes to stay as clean as possible (could not shower immediately) and tons of nurse/doctor maybe touching you especially your arms/hands
