Csect recovery - binder ?

Hi mummies, im at day 3/4 of csect, any tips for recovery ? Just discharged and doc just changed my bandage to waterproof bandage and told me not to get it wet for the next 5 days. So scared of it cs i always wash using bidet at home. And do you use binder over your incision and to sleep? #FTM

Just shower as per normal but not directly spray onto the bandage. Once done, Pat dry ur bandage. You can get any existing tubes you have at home and wear it under the binder otherwise ur skin will start to itch and there will be rashes due to long hours of usage. The binder should cover the incision (as that’s how my gynae / nurses) wear it for me.
