Recommendations on what helped you with a planned C-section

Al

My last full-term pregnancy ended in an emergency c-section after a very long labor. I decided this time to do a planned one because I had anxiety that the past would happen again.

I'm 7 weeks away now, and since I obviously get to prepare better this time around (lol) what are your tips for things to bring to the hospital or to help with postpartum recovery? Interested in comments about compression leggings or belly support especially.
