Wear after op?

Girls,

What did you all wear to and from your operation?? I bought a new onsie specially for the occasion but I've opened it (occasion? who the hell am I, haha). So need something else but, but not a onsie. Any ideas? Xx

To - just normal clothes. From - I ended up staying in my nightshirt, pulling on a pair of leggings and some trainers that I didn't need to bend to put on. You want something front fastening or that you can step into, nothing you have to raise your arms for. Comfy, loose fitting. Easy slip on shoes.

I am thinking of wearing leggings and my uggs (easy to put on) and not sure on top yet. The only front opening top I can find are shirts and I am not a big fan of shirts. Maybe a big baggy top that i can get my OH to put over my head so i just have to slip my arms into?

lol a the new onesie for the occaison, I did the same with some new pj's, but after reading other girls stories, I might just stay in the gown that they provide rather than faffing around. I have my onesie that I thought of taking but its very pink, fluffy and animal print so not sure I want to walk out of the hospital in that with people staring! x

I wore onesie. But tracksuit would be fine x anything loose would be fine x

by Boney1992 25th February 2014, 4:53 pm

Yeah, I think I may just wear my onsie there and back - did any one take slippers? Xx

by LuciaH 25th February 2014, 5:08 pm

what sort of onesie did you wear Sahara? The only ones I have got are the really think fluffy ones with flufffy hoods, so I am thinking they might not be very good. xx

I wore jeans and a vest top first time second time tights and shorts and a vest top both times with a cardiagan

from the get go i had all arm movements which was great but even if not I could have stepped into my vest xx

I think a onesie is a bad idea. You can't go to te toilet without getting stripped off and it's more hassle I think.
I wore my normal clothes to it.
And came out still in my pjs. Just pj bottoms and my Macom ontop with a zip up hoody. I wasn't able for wearing any clothes and felt all happy and cosy in my pjs. Just comfort clothes haha. Took me 4 days till I was putting on normal clothes. Just sat in my Macom and my fluffy comfy jumpers for bed that are zip ups. Xxx it's a time to be lazy and rest :)

by tinkerbell24 25th February 2014, 5:40 pm

yeah I was in my bed from 8.30am - 4.30pm lol first 2 days as the kids and peter were out obv I got up for a bath and food and to stretch my legs etc but other than that I watched my catch up tv

day 4 I went out and got the kids home from school and was dressing as normal xx

by LuciaH 25th February 2014, 5:42 pm

ah ok, didnt think about going for a wee! Maybe just leggings, uggs and vest top with zip up hoody? xx

by tinkerbell24 25th February 2014, 5:44 pm

I love my onesie nut even on a normal night its rubbish having to strip to pee lol x

by krizzooo1 25th February 2014, 5:48 pm

COMFY SLACK clothing is best. Easy up bottoms like joggers or stretch trousers...some have worn jeans and struggled ...I wore them at home a few days after, hub had to fasten button for me.
Hoodie (zip up as over head arm movement can be restricted)... vest top for easy access to your new friends.... I wore UGGs they were a PAIN to pull on, so go for slip on shoes of some sort or trainers/ballet pumps.

xx

by LuciaH 25th February 2014, 5:53 pm

Thanks Krizz, I will swap my uggs for some pumps. I don't own any joggers, so will go and get some tomorrow. have plenty of vest tops and have a zip up hoody. So sort of ready to rock and roll after I go shopping for some joggers. x

by krizzooo1 25th February 2014, 5:57 pm

Lol no I didn't, I had some stretchy black trousers from River island that were comfy and easy on/off ... or leggings won't be so bad x

by greenbean1 25th February 2014, 6:02 pm

Hi girls, i wore jeans, easy pull on ankle boots, Macom and a front button casual shirt for leaving hospital. My sis had the kids so hubby and i went for a cheeky pub lunch on the way home! All the best for ur special day, exciting, Lucia! xxDi

by greenbean1 25th February 2014, 6:05 pm

Oooh, LOVE ur pic krizz! Another gorgeous bikini and lovely on those boobies! XxDi

by LuciaH 25th February 2014, 6:08 pm

Thanks Di, I can't believe I am more indecisive about what to wear to and from the hospital than I was about everything else!

Xx

by Princess_x 25th February 2014, 6:30 pm

Tracksuit bottoms, zip up top and uggs x

by rachelw287 25th February 2014, 6:31 pm

I'm honking leggings, uggs and a long check shirt. If I'm unwell or feeling rough looking half decent puts me in a better mood. I'll sulk if I'm in my pjs 24/7 lol xxx

by rachelw287 25th February 2014, 6:32 pm

Haha thinking not honking

by greenbean1 25th February 2014, 6:36 pm

I was the same Lucia! I re-packed hospital bag about 4 times but kinda forgot the reason i was going into hospital. I obsessed over my BA hospital bag the same as when i had my 2 children. Its all part of the experience so indulge yourself and enjoy ur day when it comes...soon! XxDi

by Kt402 25th February 2014, 6:51 pm

Tracky bottoms or something easy to pull on for the bottoms, and vest tops for the top! With a zip front jumper or button front shirt/cardie.

I lived in vest tops, stepped into them and pulled them up as far as my chest, then slipped arms into the straps. Couldn't be doing with taking anything over my head for about two weeks at least!

You will also find that trying to get tight trousers/jeans on is quite painful in terms of moving your arms down and together to do up the buttons/pull them on!

All these little things that no one tells you hey! lol xx

by LuciaH 25th February 2014, 7:09 pm

Aghhhhhh!!! What a decision! Di, I think I am losing sight of what's happening and stressing out over what to blooming wear!

I think I will settle with joggers, vest top, sip up hoody and my ugg boots as they are quite easy to get on and I will have my OH there to help me if not.

by krizzooo1 25th February 2014, 7:17 pm

My Hubby helped with the whole Ugg pulling on and off hun, you'll be fine.

Kt is right about the vest tops. I still live in them under stuff... easy to pop down for a peek etc and comfy too.

I made the mistake of skinny jeans ... Had a baggy top but given the few hours I was in the clinic ( not overnight) the water retention posed interesting while the nurse tried to dress me ....very comedy
