v shaped pillow and other bits n bobs .. ?

Evening girls, My ops in jan and im currently in the process of buying all sorts of weird and wonderful things for my op, just getting things gradually. Got myself the following so far:

New pjamas (button up front)

Savlon wound spray

A white macom bra, a black macom bra, 2 cheap tesco sports bras (incase the macoms arent for me!!) Some new slippers, bio oil x 2 big tubs for pre op and when i can start using again after surgery 1 tub of palmers cocoa butter.

Lactulose- incase i get constipated (BLUSH)

So the next thing im looking into is v shaped pillows!!! Is the standard £10 ones from argos any good or would you reccommend the memory foam ones? and should i buy one or two??

Also what else should i get??? xxxx

Core your just about ready to go lol (Y)

I would just probably add; dry shampoo, heard hibiscrub to prevent infection (not too sure), some say arnica (but make sure you ask your surgeon firstand maybe dermatix scar sheets…

In regards to V-pillow yep £10 at argos however I saw another thread about sainsburys having one on offer from £12 to £9 x

Thanks hun

He he just wanted to be organised, with xmas coming up i just wanted everything bought and out the way in time to have a nice relaxing xmas.

I didnt know with the dermatix whether to get the gel or to get the strips??

Yeah the v pillows are a right bargain really i think il get a couple.

Need a tracksuit for after surgery as well (dont own one always thought they were for chavs lol) xxx

Woohoo bet your excited… I haven’t even bothered buying anything because mine isn’t until may:(

I’d say get the strips because it offers protection against the friction of your bra rubbing against your scars. (well thats what someone suggested to me and I thought it made sense)

Yh they are chav’ like I suppose but it’ll be nice and baggy x

Hot water bottle!!! Hun in telling u now this is as important as the v pillow! Sleeping sitting up is the worst thing about the op and the hot water bottle takes the edge off the back ache xxx
