Have to be at hospital in 14 hours!

Ack! What should I bring with me? Wanted to bring my iPad but too scared it'd get stolen. Sweatpants? T-shirts? Toothpaste? I've never stayed in a hospital before and I guess it's gonna be a 2 day stay.

Plus my nerves are really starting to get the best of me, am I making the right decision? I know I'll feel better once everything is over with, the anticipation is difficult.

Wish me luck everyone!

You're going to do fantastic! Don't take your ipad, things do come up missing sometimes in hospitals. Walk, walk, walk. Let us know how you breezed through it when you can.

Good luck!!

I have to be at the hospital in 13.5 hours and I'm trying to figure out what to take. I know the dr said I'll be able to shower and I'm plannin on loose fitting pj's. I'm starting to panic more than anything. Just last minute jitters. I'm taking a book to read instead of taking my laptop. I am also taking cards so I can play solitare. I'm trying to remember stuff like my cell phone charger. I have been told by more than one person to take my own pillow. I wish you the best of luck :tongue_smilie: Keep us posted. We can swap stories when we're back home :biggrin0:
