About c-section.....

Hi magmag,

My gynae provided the binder. The brand is Dale. It has a website at http://www.dalemed.com/prod/abdominalbinder.html
I personally find it useful. I even used it during my post-natal massage.

You can check with your gyane if he/she sell a binder. I think most pharmacies sell binders.

I took the nurse's advice during the course to wear button-down pyjamas dresses. However, I personally find it troublesome to button up and down whenever I breastfeed. It is not recommended to wear pants, unless it's really low waist and loose like maternity pants, as the pants may 'cut' into your c-section wound.

You would need to bring disposable panties, the hospi wld not be providing. Remember to buy at least a size bigger than usual. You can also bring your own sanitary pads. The hospi should however provide one packet.
 


hi mine is also Dale. The hospital (Mt A) also sell if u need. if u find it hot, u can wear it outside of ur clothes too.
 
Thanks for the info, i prefer to wear pants , maybe i will get loose pant n wear it with a binder, hope it wont cut into my c-section wound.
 
magmag, i tried to wear the binder with pants, it's ok. just that it will look "big" on the bottom half area.
 
under general anesthesia, can u share your experience? where and what they use to knock u out? whats the side effect when wake up, other than pain?
