    Hi girls wondering if anyone can help me.
    I’m a day case and struggling to think of what I need to bring with me and what I’ll need post op also? Can anyone help please? Also can you only wash with antibacterial soap before the op?
    And do you have to take all piercings out of ears and also belly bars? What pillows and sports bras would you recommend? Hearing different opinions. Sorry loads of questions haha! Thank you xx

    Hey when I had my op nearly 2 weeks ago I took with me button up pjs, slippers, dressing gown, toothbrush, charger, magazines and a pillow and some biscuits in the car. I was a day case but they say prepare to be staying over just incase. I travelled in leggings and a shirt but ended up just wearing my pjs home! All you really need post op is dry shampoo, anti-bacterial wipes, sports bras, and my v pillow has been a big help. You have to wash with only antibacterial soap on the morning of your op I bought a bar of soap by detol for sensitive skin. You have to take all piercings out including belly bars. I recommend the Macom bra and the George asda sports bras which you get 2 in a pack for £7. Hope this helps good luck xx

    Are the antibacterial wipes for when you can’t have a shower ?
    Where did you get your v pillow from ?
    Hope you’re finding recovery okay Hun!
    How do you wash your hair after without getting them wet? Did you bend over the bath? Thank you you’ve been great help. @charlotteemily xx

    Yeah I just used hem for armpits and everywhere you can’t wash in a shallow bath, I just got a cheap one off eBay, yeah 4 days after my op I got my boyfriend to wash it over the bath and used dry shampoo so I could leave it for longer between washes but now I’m washing it myself. I’m doing good I think I’ve been one of the lucky ones I’ve had hardly any pain just struggling with the breast band really there so annoying!! That’s ok any time 🙂 xx
