Seriously, you won't use half of that stuff. Haaha. You will probably only be there overnight to two days, make-up will be very low on your list. If you are cathed you might not be able to wear pants (or underpants), but they will give you a robe so you don't moon everyone. I brought books & homework, but I didn't touch the stuff really. I was in the hospital for 4 days! Toothbrush & hygiene stuff is a good plan, cell phone, a pillow or whatever makes you feel happy, but "looking good" is not going to be an early post-op concern. I was most concerned with making sure that I'd pee after they took out the catheter because they said they'd re-insert it if I didn't and this time it would be without the anesthesia.
All jokes aside, you'll be fine and home sooner than you realize and carting a whole bunch of stuff to the hospital will just make more stuff to put away when you get home. Good luck and we'll be waiting for you on the loser's bench!
