C section essentials?

Question

What can you guys recommend to me to bring to the hospital/ have for after birth for a planned c section? I’ve had one already but I honestly can’t remember what I really used and needed

Answer

Nursing robe/pj gown set and a dress to wear home. I remember wanting nothing near that incision at first.

Answer

Pillow to hold against your incision for the ride home!

Answer

Robe and slippers (I just wore hospital gowns the whole time, so much easier to toss and grab a clean one whenever needed) 
Nursing bra and pads
Nipple cream!!!! 
Toiletries 
Something loose to wear home, pressure on the incision area is all bad. 
My hospital supplies pads, disposable panties, diapers, wipes, swaddle blankets etc so I didn’t need to bring any of that.

Answer

Witch hazel pads. It works wonders on my incision to clean, and cool to relieve pain

Answer

Super loose clothes/nightgowns
Slippers/socks
Granny panties to go home in (I bought a pack just for this)
Toiletries 
My hospital provides a lot so I’m bringing the bare minimum.

Answer

Slip on shoes! That way you don’t need to bend down to put them on.

Answer

A neck pillow. Personally I slept at an angle and a neck pillow was needed. Good luck!
