Hospital stay go bag. What to take?

So I am sitting here in preop, waiting waiting. Wondering if anyone has advice on what to take for my lovely 2 night stay at the luxurious hotel hospital. Sarcasm of course. Just any ideas appreciated?

    I over packed. I only used my phone charger, slippers, underwear, chap stick and a pillow from home. I was in 3 nights

    All I needed/used was:

    Lip balm

    Biotene spray

    Phone charger

    Pillow for the ride home

    Clean underwear (I wore home what I wore to the hospital)

    Heating pad

    The best thing I took with me was my mom!

    I'm planning to bring an extension cord for the phone charger, and either a laptop or kindle & headphones so I can watch netflix.
