Heating pad, lots of pillows, do not lay flat in bed the first night--unless you have someone to help you sit up (I got stuck, if not for DH I'd probably still be laying there!). Fill your prescription pain meds before surgery if your doctor will give them to you in advance. Have a firm pillow to hold against your tummy when you cough, nice to have for ride home as well, between you and seat belt.

The usual food list, already mentioned.

Thermometer should be handy to watch for fever post-op. I am just getting over an e.coli Sepsis infection after a minor surgical procedure. Odds against it were high, recovery is long. 30 minute procedure led to 3 weeks out of work and 2 ER visits...keep your eye on it. ER total was $18,000 charged to my insurance.

Do your laundry and chores before going to the hospital, it will be a week before you feel like doing it (ok, before you feel up to doing it). Have someone available for help with childcare if you have little ones.
