    Hello!
    I’ve been using this forum and the Boobie Bible to help get organised and prepared for my op.

    I have already begun to body butter my boobs on a daily basis (if i remember) in hope of eliminating stretch marks.
    2 weeks before my op I will stop taking my pill..
    QUESTION: I take anti-histamines daily for allergies… I dont have to stop taking these at any point do I? I’ve not read anything about them on here!
    1 week before my op I will begin using bio-oil and taking arnica tablets.

    for the op day itself I will take:
    a sports bra
    v pillow
    front fastening pjs
    zip up hoody (in case cold)
    books/magazines/dvds
    paracetamol / ibuprofen
    phone charger
    toothbrush
    slip on shoes / slippers
    nibbles and a drink for after
    straws (to make drinking easier)

    For the week following I will have ready:
    some laxatives – QUESTION: do people start taking these before the op or just after?
    some dry shampoo
    a hot water bottle for my lower back
    a long sausage pillow for under my legs

    Any more amazing advice girls? anything I am missing? xxx

    Ice pack for at home 🙂
    & don’t start taking laxatives until you know you can’t go to the toilet, you dont want the opposite & to be stuck on the toilet!! Xx
