What to take in my overnight bag?

Hello ladies.

We need to gather a list of what to take in our overnight bag to provide information for ladies about to have their operation so I'll start with:

Bridget Jones big knickers, Nightie rather than PJ's, loose clothing for return journey, dressing gown (Hospital gowns tend not to tie at the back) Phone and charger, books, nibbles, mints, pillow for return journey, toiletries, herbal or decaff teabags if preferred,

Add whatever I've missed......If we keep this going and add new items it'll stay towards the top of the "Chat" which'll be good for our new members!

I took my own towels in with me as the hospital ones are small and I'm definitely not

LOL! I agree, they're more like flannels!

No matter how you feel beforehand., you probably won't end up reading that long novel you always meant to read but never had the time. With everything else that's going on, something short and light will be much more appealing! (Ebooks on a kindle, tablet or phone will give you lots of choice.

So helpful, hospital just phoned to say I’m to be at hospital at 7.30 in the morning for robotic hysterectomy. I have been self isolating and had my COVID test on Saturday. Just worried that a wound on my foot from January and had healed doesn’t look good today. Fingers crossed it’ll be ok.
Think I may take my nasal spray, don’t usually need it but if air is very dry it helps.
