    Wahoo good luck!
    I’m 15DPO.

    Advice: chill out an enjoy the ride! It’ll be over in a flash!

    Expect to do NOTHING afterwards. I didn’t experience any pain at all afterwards but I had sickness, nausea, swelling and generally feeling tight and uncomfortable.

    I would take
    Post op bras
    Comfy clothes that don’t go over your head
    A charger if you’re an overnight case
    A travel pillow of you have one.

    Things everyone says you need but I didn’t:
    Throat sweets
    Lip balm
    Dressing gown
    Slippers

    Hospitals are always so warm I would’ve boiled of I wore my dressing gown!

    I took a few snacks with me but I was too sick to eat them.

    Don’t be too hard on yourself at any point, its major surgery xx
