Clean underwear to wear home (I wore the clothes that I wore to the hospital home).

Chapstick

Biotene spray

A pillow for the ride home

Phone/charger. My mom went to the hospital with me so I gave her my phone with strict instructions not to give it back to me until I was no longer loopy. She used it to keep my friends in the loop via text since a few wanted updates.

A hot pad.

The best thing I took was my mom!

As little as possible. I took my charger for iPhone/iPad, clean pair of undies, and socks.

I mostly went minimalist. Brought a clean set of clothes, phone charger and a handheld game console. Didn't really need anything else.

Thank you all very much. ????

Wipies! Trust me. You want these. I brought lavender moisturizing ones, and they honestly felt like heaven.
