Yep.... hospital gown for me too. I have to say it was the least restrictive thing going which was exactly what i wanted.

Also... probably a bit confrontational but the absolute BEST thing I packed (quite by accident) was a dark brown face washer. I packed it to clean my face but ended up rolling it up (in a log shape) & just gently placing it between my legs after a shower. You will be quite sore, unable to wipe & probably loosing a bit of blood. It was perfect until I got my underwear on.

The hospital provides white washers but that was the last thing I wanted to use IYKWIM.

Un unexpected tip.... It just popped into my mind.
