Any tips or advise for c section

Due to a couple of reasons, my doctor has decided on doing a c section at 38 weeks. This is my first baby and I'm completely terrified of what is about to happen. I chose the option of receiving a spinal so I could be awake for the birth. Does anyone have tips on how I can recover more quickly after birth?

Keep the wound dry and clean. I didn’t bathe for a week - which was when my gynae said I could remove the dressing. Take things easy and rest more. Don’t squat, bend or carry heavy stuff. Wear compression socks to control water retention.
