I'm a born organiser<BR/><BR/>Wordnerd: What goes on underneath, stays underneath. Pretties sounds like a good idea. You never know when that bus might come along. (Or Dr McDreamy for that matter)<BR/><BR/>GrannyMar: practical as ever. Actually its a pelvic incision so I think the big bangers are probably better or just go commando.<BR/><BR/>Anony; I want a T shirt that says "You Can't Touch This" with a downward pointing arrow!<BR/><BR/>SID: I can't imagine you being embarrased in a gown or otherwise but thanks for the advice I'll be prepared. Just worried about the effects of painkillers. Visited my old Dad once and he was so off his face he lost all possession of modesty - Some things a daughter should never see! I should have entered the competiton for the green shorts!<BR/><BR/>Ian: Gowns are designed purely to reduce everyone to the same level, much like the nom de plume 'nil by mouth' I will make a special sign to go above the bed that says, "My name is Helen and don't you forget it!"<BR/><BR/>AV: You are wicked and that would be a wonderful idea however, I don't think I'll be retaining my furry bits. Too much information I know. <BR/><BR/>Steph: Welcome. A CATHETER BAG! Well they can just piss in my pocket! I'm not walking around with one of those things in full view!Bainohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156193098088048637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-48371478971227979982007-11-12T09:06:00.000+11:002007-11-12T09:06:00.000+11:00Hi BainoForget the fancy knickers - what you reall...Hi Baino<BR/><BR/>Forget the fancy knickers - what you really need is a designer bag to carry your bits n' pieces in (urinary catheter etc)when you go walk-about. <BR/><BR/>I do like the sound of the glittery furry bits though!<BR/><BR/>Best of luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-13140252024238028832007-11-11T18:57:00.000+11:002007-11-11T18:57:00.000+11:00I think you can count on not caring a toss what yo...I think you can count on not caring a toss what you look like on the first couple of days. Do bear in mind that aside from wanting to look pretty for the dishy doctor, you might want to be wearing something that will not chafe on scars/stitches or cause you trouble to put on. I find voluminous t-shirts do the trick just nicely. As for the bottom bits, who cares whose looking. They've seen it all, and more besides. Just try not to do, as in the joke about the gynae and his patient, to apply glitter to your furry bits.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04871239587214383387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-62038390160256874572007-11-11T09:23:00.000+11:002007-11-11T09:23:00.000+11:00Baino,Having spent the last twenty-odd years visit...Baino,<BR/><BR/>Having spent the last twenty-odd years visiting people in all sorts of hospitals, I would advise comfort rather than style! Those hospital gowns are awful: I was visiting an 88 year old guy last night who had fallen down the stairs form his apartment checking that the meals on wheels guy had got away safely, (the old guy was fine), and there was a young fellow of about 20 across the ward with a broken leg trying to retain a bit of dignity in a gown. I don't understand why they use them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-59934782536920999022007-11-11T08:41:00.000+11:002007-11-11T08:41:00.000+11:00Having been there, you can be sure that no matter ...Having been there, you can be sure that no matter what you wear,your dignity will remain firmly at the door of the hospital.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!S.I.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15360630347283039214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-89741480827326519642007-11-11T08:35:00.000+11:002007-11-11T08:35:00.000+11:00I'd go for extra long novelty T's that point out I...I'd go for extra long novelty T's that point out I'm a Superwoman or whatever message you want to give visitors and hospital staff.

I walked across the street to the hospital, and after the birth sent my husband home for clothes... let's just say he made some odd decisions and I had my hospital bag all packed by about the 4th month of pregnancy the next time around.<BR/><BR/>I say, go ahead and splurge on nice underwear. You'll know it's there even after the days when a steady parade of strangers is coming into your room to poke, prod, and peek.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02778318185310548615noreply@blogger.com
