    Help girls I have my op on Friday. I’m an overnight stay with an admission time of 12pm.
    I so far have this to go in my bag
    vest pj top
    pj bottoms
    button up pj top
    sports bra
    face wash and moisturiser
    Baby wipes
    Little snacks for after surgery
    bottle of lucozade for after surgery
    dressing gown
    slippers
    slipper socks
    phone and charger
    tablet and charger
    headphones
    medications for morning after (thyroxine and vitamins)
    Hair brush and hair ties
    Vest top, zip up hoody and jogging bottoms for the next day to go home
    book
    suduko book and pen

    Is there anything I’m missing. I have a v pillow BT didn’t know if I have to take that with me or just use it for home?
    I’ll be going in the car on the way home so will put a thin pillow in the car for the journey

    I feel like I’m missing something.

    I plan on taking some pillows not sure if I will take my v pillow, I will use them in the car so the seatbelt doesn’t put too much pressure on my chest. I’m totally going to use your list when I pack my bag for my BA lol x

    Hey 🙂 I had mine done 22nd December! I’d say you’re better off with a zip up or button up top rather than vest top – you’ll never be able to get it on haha xx
