Going Home

Thank you so much for this forum. I just started the planning stages and I was wondering what do you wear when you are leaving the hospital to go home. Do you need to size up do to swelling? Can you wear a bra?

You can wear a bra and some very comfortable pants and shirts. I wore a sports bra, yoga pants and a big t-shirt. What ever you feel comfortable in, and yes there is some swelling. Good luck and welcome to VST.

I wore the exact same clothes i went to the hospital in. Of course- i put on new panties! Other than that - same exact clothes - no problem. I had no drains or real swelling that was notable.
