Wound Vac for C section?

Courtney

So I had an emergency c section on Sunday the 10th. When I woke up I had this crazy wound vac thing attached my my belly. It’s basically battery powered and it flushes my incision every so often. It had a long tube that’s attached to me so it’s kind of annoying to carry around. The doctor said it will die tomorrow and I can take it off. Have any of you other c section mamas had this? I was open on the table for a bit longer because I had a uterine tear so I think that’s why she thought I needed it but I’m not sure.
