What to bring to the hospital

I've been collecting ideas from others that I thought I would share.

Chap Stick
Meds
Loose pants that can be worn below incision points. (I would hate to wear tight jeans home. Ouch!)
Sugar free mints to help with nausea
Biotene mouth spray for the cotton mouth you will have (It's a mouth moisturizer found in the pharmacy)
Robe to walk around in (Unless you want to show off the granny panties one last time!)
Slip on shoes (You won't be able to bend over to put shoes on)
Toothbrush and toothpaste
Brush or comb and hair bands to pull your hair up (Some people have also mentioned shampoo and conditioner)
Wear you glasses instead of contacts (Your eyes will be dry)
MP3/iPod, Nook/Kindle, whatever you'll like to do during infomercial time (You may not be able to sleep very well)
Maybe a sleeping mask or earplugs to block the light and drown out the noise
Hand moisturizer
Don't wear your jewelry, except maybe a watch

What else can you think of or have heard about?

my phone charger for my phone which i use as a computer pretty much. it does MP3s and movies and everything if i get bored with the internet

chap stick

hair brush
toothpaste
shampoo and such to shower there before i go home
big comfy stretchy yoga pants or pajamas. not sure which i will choose yet

ooh, ear plugs is a good idea. i need those or i can't sleep, that would suck!

Ooh...earplugs is a great idea! Thanks! Ya know...I'm hearing so many people say that they bring all this stuff we have listed, and don't use any of it except the chap stick. Everyone seems to agree that you will want chap stick!!!

I think I would rather bring extra items and not use them, than to not have them and wish I did!
