so many questions

hi sorry i just keep thinking of new questions to ask, wot do people recommend, day stay or staying a nite in hospital? im drawn between to surgeons, one is staying overnight which my husband would prefer, the other is ur out a few hours later afta the op xxx

I'll be staying in overnight my PS said he doesn't do day surgery, he always leaves the drains in overnight as it apparently decreases the risk of infection. I haven't spoken to any PS that offer day surgery so not sure what their views are on this. x

Thank u hun, thats a good point bout lowering risk of infection. im such a wimp and not sure wot to expect so thinking if i stayed overnight then im there to ask questions rather than feeling should i shouldnt i make a phonecall. Hope all goes well for u wiv ur op xxx

i stayed over night and enjoyed it! would not of wanted to go home! i took in my lap top and magasines it was nice to have someone to look after me all the time . they were so good and did regular chek ups on my boobs and brought ice packs cuppa teas and all sorts :) Loved my experiance!!!! i went with transform :)

Haha that makes two of us, still a wimp even after childbirth lol!

I'm sure you will make the right choice for you, you'll know when you find the right PS who answers all your questions and makes you feel comfortable. Good luck with your ba journey too x

im goin to stay overnite. i decided to go with THG and they only offer nite stays. the way i see it is.... if u any have queries or complications then u are in the perfect place for the experts to help you! x

I'm going to stay in overnight... but day surgery wasn't even offered to me as an option, so I'm just doing what I'm told hehe x

It's totally your choice LM.

Some ladies are happier to have a day case, your surgeon would definately NOT allow anybody to be released from the hospital should they believe to were any more at risk of infection those staying. If your surgeon had reson to believe you were at risk of ANYTHING then you would stay in hospital for as ling as your surgeon felt needed free of charge.

I had no choice in staying or not as I have an auto immune disorder so it was decidered for me I was to be an overnighter. I'm pretty much a wimp anyway so I still would have chosen to spend the night in hospital. I suffered a bleed in hospital so it was decided as the bleed was continuous and blood pressure low that I were to stay for a second night.

If you're the kind of girl who had no problem with going home, there is absolutely no reast whatsoever why you shouldn't if that's the way you want to LM.

Its a simple choice of whether or not you 'want' to go home or not hun, nothing more to it. xx

hey hun I had the choice of goin home or staying chose to stay in as i feel more comfortable knowing i'm around nurses and people who know what i'm going through and also then don't have to go home with my drains in me!! just do what u feels best suppose we'll have plenty of time to look at the walls in our houses may as well make the most of the hospitals walls first lol xxxxx

lol thanx everyone, great to get ur feedback, yeah even after childbirth twice im still a wimp but feeling if im in hosp overnight then i wont feel silly asking lil questions or querying things, also will stop me moaning at my husband as to why he not doing a good enough job cleaning house etc ,going to phone and book to c surgeon asap, thanx so much for ur help everyone,im so excited xxx
