What to pack

It won't be long and it'll be time to pack for the hospital. For those who've had their surgery would you please share what was essential? I'm an 'overpacker' by nature but don't want to take a lot of stuff I'm not going to need/use. I know it's going to be important to walk around so what would you suggest to wear? Doesn't seem that anything with a waistband would be wise. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

And Chapstick. Just got mine today. Was told by another member who had surgery yesterday. When is your surgery? Mines on May 30th.

I was barely in the hospital 24 hrs. My bathrobe and a zip up hoodie were useful. And I bought new slippers. I wore the same clothes home I wore there. I brought my marajuca oil for my face (best stuff ever). I have long hair so I brought a hair tie too. Really I needed very little. They provided toothpaste etc.
