granny knickers are a must

And get your hair braided or something. With my first c.s my hair was a mess and it bothered me. I wasn't able to brush it till the following day and even then I had to get DH to do it. 2nd time round I had a nice plait put in the night before . Laying on the bed for hours really messes it up...

As for make up ect can't help you there I don't wear it
