All you'll need for the overnight stay is:

(1) cell phone and charger

(2) lip balm

(3) toothbrush, toothpaste, comb/brush

Don't bring pajamas because you won't be able to change into them with the IV and monitors attached to you. You don't need a heating pad. You won't need underwear compression.

The only things I used from my bag were:

underwear (I couldn't stand to be commando even for 2 days)

lip balm

hand cream

phone and charger

It was even too big a hassle to get unhooked from everything to bother to brush my teeth. I brushed before I left home and then when I got home 31 hours later. I had french braided my hair so it wouldn't be an issue during my stay.

Some hospitals have heating pads (especially on the maternity floor), perhaps you can request one ahead of time
