Hello, ladies! For those who have had a cesarean section, what did you bring with you? What proved to be useful?

Cesarean section, what’s important:
- Hygienic pads (maximum absorbency)
- Water and moist wipes
- A warm dress or robe
- Toiletries (toothbrush, toothpaste, soap)
- A cap and socks
- Documents and a referral card
- Nipple shields, if you plan to breastfeed
- Food for yourself (light and easily digestible)
- Items for the baby that are hard to access (diapers, wipes, clothes)
- A soft pillow or cushion for comfort
Don’t forget to ask your doctor for recommendations on postpartum care.

The most important thing is glycerin suppositories. Make sure to pack them first in your bag. The bandage on the hooks, and the one with Velcro, didn't hold me well, so I used a towel to wrap myself the old-fashioned way 😅. The rest is on the list: disposable underwear, slippers, and so on.

I didn't take anything except for the bandage, which I was also wearing during my pregnancy.

Kucherenko Oksana I'm nodding in agreement 😊 Candles are the most important thing. Also, I keep some Citramon just in case, since one of the side effects of anesthesia can be migraines.

Wearing compression stockings is essential.

Nagymanova Saltanat
Small candles or an enema
Postoperative bandage
Compression stockings
Disposable underwear and postpartum pads (they can be replaced with postpartum underwear that somewhat resemble diapers)
Water, snacks, tea, sugar, salt
Slippers
Towel
Hygiene and skincare products
Nipple cream
Manual breast pump (since the baby wasn't with me constantly and was brought in for feeding at scheduled times, and not always hungry), plus breast pads and two nursing bras — I took an extra just in case, and in the end, I needed both)
Disposable bed pads for myself
Dishes and cleaning supplies
Clothes were provided there
And for the baby, I only needed diapers. I also brought a swaddle blanket, a pacifier (but didn't need it because the baby wasn't with me, and pacifiers are not allowed there)
At the hospital where I delivered, everyone only brought their babies for feeding; during other times, staff cared for, washed, swaddled, and fed the babies.
