I'm Going To Have A C-section, What Do I Need?
I am going to have a planned c-section because of a pregnancy complication. I want to have anything that I'll need ready at home before I leave for the hospital. Are there any special care items that I will need to recover from my c-section?

you will need the family support to help you in the first days, as long as you can not make abrupt movements and not carry any heany things in the first days, so the elastic belly supporter is a must in that cases coz it helps you to get your belly more comfortable, pain killers will be need as long as the first days are kinda painfully but that is up to your doctor prescribe, dont make so much force in the first days around your abdomen coz you can desenvolve a uterine infection, and try walk from time to time, stay so long sit or lay for a long time can make you get gas problems and it make your discomfort time be a bit worse. cheers.

I have had 2 c-sections, and I did not have anything special at home for when I came home. The most difficult part is walking after the section, but by the time you leave hospital you should be ok with that. Just make sure that you do not pick up anything heavy or stretch or anything like that, because it can cause your wound to open, leading you back to the hospital. The best thing to do is just sit comfortable, make sure that you keep walking around the house, and try not to bend down too much or as I said before stretch, or lift anything heavy. Once you have had your section you will know exactly what you feel you can and cant do, but there is nothing that you need really.

Yes before going to hospital you have to celan up the house properly and make good quantity of food also for reheat as you can do this after that a.All the necessary things for baby like clothes , cream of baby all things should be arranged , clothes should be washed before only so that when you come back you dont require to do the things.
