My program says that a typical stay for VSG is 2-3 days. Can I wear anything other than the gown while I'm in the hospital? Baggy sweatpants, robe or anything? I assume they'll want to check my incisions & maybe an IV? So nothing crazy- I'm just always freezing and want to be comfy.

I wore a loose fitting sundress. But take some gym shoes. They will want you up walking as soon as possible

Loose clothes that doesn't stick to your body are most preferable. All the best....

My surgery was performed at Howard University Hospital (HUH) in Washington, DC.

I kept my hospital gown on because it was very comfortable and walked in socks hospital provided. The nurses adjusted the room temperature accordingly as I am premenopausal (ugh).

Good luck and God bless.

I wore just a hospital gown and then when I was ready to come home I changed into my gown when I was going to wear at home and came home with my gown and robe on. I was in the hospital for a day and a half. VSG surgery. They check your belly all the time and you want to be very comfortable. She don't worry about bringing any clothes just go him in your nightgown. Gods blessings!!
