Hospital List

Ahh finally finally finally I'm actually ready and close to my date.

So now I need help!!

I'm wondering what to bring to the hospital, essentials, non-essentials, things you wish you had brought, or had to send others out to get..

Anything that pops into your head as useful for a hospital visit, let me know!

Thanks!

 Mouthwash!!! You won't be able to drink anything and it keeps your mouth from getting dry :]  oh and I am SO glad I brought my iPod :]  I'm ready for you to come over to the loser's bench :]]

me too!

18 days feels like FOREVER!

But i know soon enough, I'l be bypassed. (in the good way, hopefully)

I'm having surgery tomorrow morning, and I've been frantically packing the essentials.

Things I'm bringing:
iPod
Laptop
Change of clothes (in case I'm hot or cold)
Toothbrush/toothpaste/mouthwash
Hair brush
Lotion
Tylenol (just in case)
Gas-X (the dissolving strips kind...I was told this helps a LOT)

I have the feeling I'm going to be sleeping a lot, but it'll be nice to have things with which to entertain myself.
 
Good luck!!

Exciting!!  I'm getting closer to the end of the road for me too.  My last physician supervised visit will be on April 18.  I can't offer you any suggestions as i'm not there yet but I wanted to say congrats on getting a date!!  I can't wait till I'm there!

CHAPSTICK!!!!

your lips will get really dry

 I am SO thankful I brought chapstick by accident.

My mouth and lips are super dry...not to mention my throat is very sore.

I hope your feeling better!
I'm patiently waiting my surgery would love to hear how you are doing so far!

Gah! I love this! I'm 9 days away...I was told to bring a travel alarm clock because some rooms don't have clocks visible..and I like to know what time it is...and also, someone told me to bring a blanket and/or pillow from home to kind of make it more comfortable...I have a super light weight blanket that I'm going to bring--it'll add comfort and a bit of flare (it's purple!!)
