c section!

Unplanned c section.
I'm waiting on a call to confirm the time  and day.. doc said could be 2marro!!
Anything extra needed to pack for a c section than a regular birth?

For yourself , pants that can go over your scar. Comfortable ones at that! I've had two and anything that got near my scar bothered me since it was still sore. It still bothers me sometimes. Don't get behind on pain medicine! Make sure when your able to walk around don't be afraid to walk around. Empty your bladder as much as possible. With my second csection I wouldn't realize I had to pee and when j finally did pee it hurt. Don't over work yourself and rest as much as you can! Make sure you have help at least the first two weeks cause as well as taking care of baby your still recovering from surgery! Good luck momma!!!!
