what do I need ? Started by: Steph

Hey,

I would definitely say that you don’t need as much as you think. If you’re only a day case I’d take something to keep you occupied whilst you’re waiting, iPad/iPhone/charger/magazines/book etc, being comfy clothes and a button/zip up top to wear. If you’re not a fan of tea and toast then bring some snacks.

All you really need is your bra, comfy clothes and something to keep you occupied. Anything else is just extra stuff that isn’t necessary. I was so obsessed with being super prepared as so many girls were writing huge lists but actually in the end I went for the basics and even then it was too much to take haha!

For after care I would massively recommend a v pillow, gel ice packs and just having a good tv series saved up to watch plus someone supportive to help you out for the first week 🙂

Good luck for Feb xxx

which vitamin e cream did you buy from the body shop @JESS Theres so many to choose from?! x

Think the photo worked! 🙂
I also bought a vitamin e hydrating face spray it’s like a spray cream says u can use it to settle make up too but I’m just gonna use it to spray over my face save rubbing in moisturiser if my boobs ache (Ive already used it a few times and it’s really nice and non greasy!) so would defo recommend! Xx

I’m so glad I came on here tonight, my op is Thursday and I’ve been too nervous to come onto the forum but I feel so much more at ease after reading through the posts ( however I have some shopping to do) but have got my head around what I need and what to expect so much more ! Thank you ladies for those post op hope your enjoying your new assests for those with up coming OPS good luck xx
