So, Surgery Day is Tomorrow.. I've been preparing for a while on what to take with my to the hospital and what I needed once I got back home. So, I thought it'd be good for a post to let you know what I plan on taking with me and maybe it will be helpful for others that might be going in for the same surgery.

In my Hospital Bag:
Slippers (Non-Slip)
Lightweight Night Gown
Underwear ( 100% Cotton)
Button Up Night Shirts
Lightweight Bottoms
Toiletries (Toothbrush, Toothpaste, Anti-Bacterial Skin Cleanser for the shower)
Things I've Bought for Home:
V-Pillow
Wedge Pillow
Lots of  other Pillows
Over the Bed Table

Garments:
2 x Macom Medical Bra for Post Op (One on, One off)
A second Tummy Tuck Garment

Other:
Arnica 30 -  Helps with Bruising and Swelling
Stool Softners (as Pain Meds may 'clog' you up)
Dry Shampoo (As I've been told no showering for 2 weeks!)
Multi-Vitamins
Wet Wipes
Anti-Histamines -  to help with itching.

Other than the above, I'll obviously be bringing things to keep me occupied during my stay including my phone, for updating everyone, Ipad, which is currently full of movies and TV shows to watch.. and my Laptop as a backup if I run out of things to do. I doubt I'll use the above though, as my guess is that I will probably sleep a lot.

Hopefully, I'm not missing anything. Today, I'll be travelling up to Birmingham, where the hospital is, but we thought it'd be good to spend the day out at Alton Towers for the day to keep my mind off surgery. Hopefully I don't regret the decision. Hah.

For now, my nerves are holding up pretty well. I'm not nervous at all really, not thinking about it all that much or worrying. I'm sure it will be different soon enough and I doubt I will get much sleep tonight. Eeeek!

Question: Ever had Major Surgery? How were your nerves?
