    So due to work being such annoying pains in the butts! I’m having to move my surgery from Dec 11th to Nov 13th.
    Which means I’ve got less time to prepare myself and get my head around everything.
    I don’t want to forget anything and even though I have a list would you girls mind telling me what I need for surgery day and afterwards when recovering?

    Thank u xx

    Hey! So I was an overnight case I bought;
    Macom bra (black)
    V shaped pillow ( life saver)
    Underwear
    Socks
    Toothbrush
    Toothpaste
    Mags
    iPad
    Chargers
    Hair bands with no metal
    Baby wipes
    For after surgery make sure everything is at a level where you don’t have to reach high. Plenty of water ( they’ll give you painkillers and antibiotics) and ice packs lots and lots of ice packs!
    Hope that helped !xx

    @shaniceja I’m the 13th of Nov in Fitzroy too! May see you there! I’m day case.
    As far as I’m aware, a v shaped pillow is a must, loads of girls have said they’ve been a massive help.
    Take comfy clothes that aren’t going to be a struggle to get in to (maybe leggings or joggers and a zip up/button up top)
    Phone charger, ipad, magazine etc something to keep you occupied incase you have to wait a while for your ok. Seen a few people say about taking snacks for afterwards too. But most importantly your post surgery bra 🙂 xxx
