Must haves for recovery?

Question

Any recommendations on must haves that helped you with recovery after birth? Or things that you wish you had?

Answer

I found that wearing loose comfy pants helped with having to heal for the 6 weeks and dealing with the pads
Find some comfy underwear that aren't too tight also to allow room for your pads depending on size you'll need depending on how much you bleed
Having lots of water to help keep up with staying hydrated and for nursing too
Hospital should give you a bottle to help with going pee in the event it burns so you can squirt warm water on yourself
Whatever you do though even if you feel good don't lift anything heavy!
I made that mistake about 4 weeks after I delivered of
Thinking oh I feel fine and helped my
Mom move a piece of furniture ugh stupid mistake and the pain kicked in
Listen to your body and go from there
You won't know until it's time how your birth will go or what type of birth you'll have healing process will depend on that for sure
Good luck!

Answer

Depends (incontinence undies) Lol. I swear. SO COMFY. I was actually sad to run out of them.
 Witch hazel too. My birth center didn't provide it for me but I got a jug at target.
Water bottles to keep in your room with you or wherever you'll spend the most time. Snacks.

Answer

Not sure if you will need it but I had a c-section and couldn't sleep in my bed for WEEKS. Having a lazy boy and comfy blankets was a must for me.
