Getting ready...

So far I have my broth and Soup for post op and that's it. I still need to get my chewable Vitamins, gas strips, and a sleep bra (just in case my incisions are too close to my underwire). Oh, I already have a heating pad and I know what I'm going to wear home from the hospital :biggrin:

What about everyone else? What's on your shopping list?

I got my items. Dont forget the liquid Tylenol, icypops (for the pills you have to crush), 100% juices, and lip balm. I am taking a comfy robe and slippers to the hospital as we will be walking alot and I dont want to MOON anyone!! I also am looking into purchasing a wedge for my bed as it is hard to get in and out after surgery. Good Luck shopping!

it's funny I brought so much stuff to the hospital and did not touch a thing I did not get out of that bed except for the twice they made me pee I was so out of it. But let me tell you it's all so worth it I'm 11 days out and 16 pounds lighter thank you god!

I bought all the bowell prep my surgeon wants me to do next sunday, the chewable vitamins, calcium, broth, and whey protein. I keep looking for better prices on the gas strips. 7.99 for 30 at Rite Aid seems high. I have to wait on the Celebrex and an anti nausea suppository from the drug store. They have to order it. I have plenty of books to read when I get home. The only thing I'm taking to the hospital is slippers, a book, and clothes to go home.
