Uhm question about what to wear tommorrow to surgery



Recommended Posts

i am having my surgery done tommorrow morning, and this is about the oddest question, but am i like totally naked in a hospital gown? I am assuming that would have to be true ? or do i get to keep my underwear on? or ?

I would assume totally naked as they need access to all of the stomach area, but just wanted to make sure

sorry for the silly question..

But, girlfriend, your gown is on backwards so you feel like you have a "dress" on :)

Everyone is so professional and the time just flys by, so you won't have time to be embarrassed.

The very best of luck to you...:D

Yes, girl, you are totally naked underneath. It is uncomfortable to lay around like that waiting, but my nerves were more of what I was concerned about, but how about this, when I lay in my hospital bed waiting for surgery, my feet were facing the nurses station, so if I were to move around I had to be REALLY careful. But its all good. Just dont worry about it.

:) I think we've now sufficiently scared you to death (like you weren't already nervous!)

What I DIDN'T tell you is that you are also covered with a sheet laying in the bed! So, it's just like you're at home in bed, only they wheel you around---whee!!!!

Hey kiddo, it'll be over before you know it! Let us know how it goes...:D

Heh thanks guys. I figured i would be, since its surgery and all, I just wasnt entirely sure and didnt wanna wear ugly underwear!

Got my maternity dresses ready to go for tommorrow to come home in. They are about the biggest things i own (hit my top weight ever at 9 months pregnant heh).

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
