Netty good luck for next week.

My advice would be to rest as much as possible.
Don't be afraid to ask for help.
Have the pain killers they give you and only stop taking them if you think you can go without them. (I only ever took them for about 3 days after)
I was told never lift anything heavier than the weight of your baby.
Keep your scar dry at all times. I found after a couple of weeks putting sudocram on it helped with keeping it dry (you get a free sample in your bounty bag)
