I packed CPAP machine, chapstick, toothpaste/toothbrush. PJs and sweats/t-shirt/slip on shoes for the ride home, a tablet with preloaded books and movies and my own pillow. I also brought distilled water because I am picky about my water.

My friend sent some crosswords and magazines with my husband. That helped when I was bored. I stayed 2 nights because of pain/vomiting.

Used nothing but charger and laptop in the end. Something to brush your teeth. And the pajamas I came in. I tried underwear but had to take it off

Phone charger and chapstick. If you like watching Tv maybe an ipad but you won't need anything else. It's one day, 2 tops lol.

A pillow for your drive home! You will feel every bump, you will want to hold the pillow gently against your stomach.

I was outpatient, a pillow for the drive home and a bottle or two of water especially if you get the scopolamine patch. That thing gives you cotton mouth like you wouldn’t believe!

I was outpatient. I packed a pair of yoga pants and panties, but was provided sweats and an oversized shirt for surgery and sent home wearing that. I brought a pillow for the ride home, but didn't need it. I was provided water, and had chapstick in my purse which I did use.
