I don't remember what to wear!

What did you find comfortable wearing during the days after your surgery?  I am completely over maternity wear and I would like to purchase regular yoga pants to wear at the hospital.  I'll take a larger size than usual.  Is this a good idea?  Thanks for your input!  It's my third time...  I can't believe I don't remember that!

  • If you have maternity pants with a panel over the belly I would wear those you dont want anything around the area where your incision will be. You can also get a nightgown. Honestly just putting on a pair of pants will be great I doubt you will care if th
  • I had yoga pants with a fold over top portion which I just didn't fold. Also extra big pj pants with jacket like top to wear over hospital robe or tshirt was nice for wearing while walking halls.

  • I had loose nightgowns for nighttime, during the day I wore maternity yoga pants and capris from old navy...I found the large fold over waist band very comfortable and it didn't interfere with my incision at all. 
  • Ditto yoga pants with a fold.  You don't want pants that start right where your incision is because it can reopen.  Oh and Granny panties.  Lots of granny panties.
