Advice please! My surgery is on Monday what are things I need or should pack for the hospital.
Thank you!

I remember I packed a pair of warm socks because it can be cold in the hospital room. And a pair of slippers that way I could walk around and my tooth brush and some tooth paste. And a change of clothes so when I went home. You’re gonna be sore and in some pain and be uncomfortable but it’ll be worth if. You got this! This is just the beginning of the journey but the results will be worth it!

I also made sure to pack any Necessary paperwork you need for the hospital and I made sure to have my hair braided so that way I didn’t have to worry about it

Awesome! Thank you for the feedback... I am so darn nervous but know it’s for the better. I anticipate to have my hair braided. Thank you!

Mine is on Tuesday! I was told to bring mouth moisturizer, Chapstick, gas X, a robe, slippers.

Keep me posted. We can get through this together!!

anyone take a heating pad w them to the hospital?worried about being cold.

They should have a lot of prewarmed blankets, demand them if they don't offer. I don't know about you but I'm taking sweatpants for my bottom half and one of my knitted poncho things to wrap around my shoulders since my arms will probably have IVs and there may be wires etc attached to my sweet self. [emoji40][emoji39][emoji73]Easter Bunny[emoji195] and I say good luck for your tomorrows and heal healthy!
