Question about 2nd J-pouch surgery (take down)

Hi. I'm scheduled for my take down surgery in a couple weeks. My surgeon is in a city an hour and a half from where I live. For the last surgery, my spouse and I stayed in a hotel for a couple days after I was discharged from the hospital. This was good for 2 reasons:
1) Every bump in the road hurt so much that I would not have been comfortable on the drive home. The extra 2 days to get a little more comfortable helped.
2) I was afraid of getting home and having a complication. It was good to be close to my surgical team until I could see that I'd be ok at home.

I know the reconnection surgery is a lot less serious as surgeries go, but I still want to stay close to the hospital for a night or two. The thing I'm worried about though is whether I will be able to be comfortable in a hotel. It's a nice hotel but it's not home.

I'll bring some pads to protect the bed and I'll have my own TP and creams but what else would I want from home?
My husbands says he will get pasta, bananas, peanut butter crackers, and eggs for me to eat. I won't need to go anywhere.

Thoughts? Thanks so much! I'm nervous about this next surgery but there's no turning back now! :)

I would avoid TB and buy flushable wet wipes. Much much better for butt burn if it happens

Thanks very much for the helpful info! It's amazing what you don't get told from the surgeon's office.

Marianne -- Thanks for saying that the first days after takedown are nutty. I really like that description. So much better than saying it's difficult! I think I will have a better attitude if I think of whatever happens as nutty! Thanks!
