I think it's unlikely you'll shower while in the hospital, but maybe. You'll probably want something prettier than a hospital gown to wear - a loose fitting set of PJs would be good, or a night gown with buttons down the front so you can breastfeed.
Also, deodorant, mints, toothbrush and paste, a hand mirror and makeup.
One of the greatest things you can bring is a big bowl of candy for the nurses, with a cute note on the bowl, "thanks nurses and docs for making my birth so special!". Changes a lot of attitudes. ;D
Best wishes with the birth.
Hi there. Yes, you should be getting up (very slowly) from the day after the op. my first shower was 24 hours after the c section. Moving a little and gently each day is important to recovery. I was told not to raise arms above head though.
All the best!
