This may sound like a silly question, but what did you wear to your surgery? I promise I'm not being fashion conscious. Lol! The hospital says "something comfortable, easy on easy off". I was thinking sweat pants and tshirt, but will it be too painful to bend over to pull up the sweatpants? Maybe a light dress? Any suggestions?

Depends on your climate. If its warm, a dress is ideal. Someone will help you dress, so bending over isn't a big issue. I'm in Seattle, so I wore loose sweats home and had no trouble.

I wore comfy yoga pants (loose) and a t-shirt and my trusty flip-flops.

Thanks ladies! I have all of these options, so I'm safe :-) I guess I'm getting nervous and this is what I'm choosing to stress out about. Lol!

If it is like my hospital, you will be in a hospital gown right after admitting, and until you are ready to go home.

BUT, you will be SORE after surgery, so whatever clothes you bring should be loose fitting and very comfortable! You won't want to wear something that will aggravate your incisions. Slip on shoes might be a good option too, you won't want to be doing toe touching exercises either

One of the thing they told me not to do was bend over. I wore lose sweat pants and they help dress me. If I could do it over I would wear something like a sun dress.

Oh not a silly question at all! I have been thinking about the best thing to wear and was going to go out and buy some pj pants..but glad to have read about a sundress. Great idea!

I read somewhere to wear tops with buttons or a zipper rather than tops that need to be pulled over your head...

I wore a cute new house dress and flip flops.I bought a few and wore them all day, everyday until my 2wk post op visit.

I always wear flip flops.lol

I wore some baggie shorts , after I wore a Loose fitting what they used to call a moo moo dress for a few days like 4 to be more specific then I was able to put the shorts back on it really doesn't matter what u ewhere to the hospital for surgry cause they put u in one of the hospital gowns any way for surgery , it's what u want to be comfortable in on the ride home and something Really Loose fitting is better and take a small pillow that the seat belt will fit over cause u will have tenderness on ur stomache.

Definitely a dress. I couldn't stand anything around my waist.

[jsws91 153]

I wore a tshirt and really loose pants. but after I got home I wore nightgowns for almost a week. didn't like to feel the pressure on my waist from pants.
