Grandma undies are a must. Trackies also a must.

I found that tubigrip stuff really great, except for trying to take it off..... kinda ouchy and scary that I might hurt my incision. I ended up buying an abdominal support from the chemist. It was about $60, but worth every cent. It was like a big firm elastic band which had a soft panel at the front and fastened with velcro. It made my recovery a LOT faster. I was able to walk around the shops for up to 5hrs at a time with my mum at 2 weeks pp. And of course, because that's what you do to help a new mum recovering from a c/s and horrible horrible experience with complictions..... you go shopping. Guess who won't be invited when this bub arrives?!
