Don't stress on what to take to the hospital because you won't even use half of it. All you need is underware, slippers, pants to walk the hall in (you don't want your butt to show) and extra big clothes for the car ride home. Oh and don't forget your toothbrush. Good Luck

Take some chapstick or lip balm (they'll be really dry) and also a book to read, or MP3 player. Wear easy on/off shoes (you won't want to bend over long enough to tie them) and a pillow for the ride home (to brace your surgical sites. Really helps) brush, comb...glasses case if needed (don't wear contacts if you do, they'll make you take them out) toothbrush clean undies (you'll wear their gown) Good luck!

OH and the bag is adorable! :lol:

A good book to read, MP3 player when you want to listen to your favorite songs. Tooth brush, comb, a pair of comfortable slipper and a dress to wear. That will do for now.

Why would we bring anything, this is out pt...right?

Melly obviously it isn't an outpatient procedure for everyone...and most insurance companies consider it "outpatient" if you are there less than 24 hours (which can mean you are there 23 hours). Some people stay overnight; some if complications arise stay longer. Some docs REQUIRE an overnight stay just to be on the safe side. We're all different.

Hi, I agree with everyone. toothbrush, chapstick, pillow for ride home, slip on shoes, undies, brush and maybe a cell phone? I stayed overnight and your very sleepy for the most part so you'll probably not need much else. Good Luck.
