Hospital bag... c-section edition?

Question

So im more than likely going to have a c-section (like 98% sure) and im wondering if my hospital bag should be any different? What did you pack for your c-section? Is there anything special I need to buy for my recovery?

Answer

I’m having a c section too and I’ve got a nightie so I don’t have to put on pjs bottoms, large underwear for scar avoidance and baggy topped trousers for going home in. Everything else I think would be the same if natural or c section.

Answer

I’ve only had c sections so I don’t know about different but I always recommend compression socks! Put them on and move around as soon as they take the leg massagers off.

Answer

Belly binder. The hospital will give you one but it usually sucks. Smaller pads too. With my csection i bled a lot less than with my vaginal. Other than that i was able to wear all of my own clothes home

Answer

High waisted underwear! Omg I wasn’t expecting a csection and I had one. Every pair of underwear felt like their sole purpose was to dig into my incision. Maybe it was just me but boy it was uncomfortable.
