They can provide compression socks and lactulose, you won’t need a breast pump for the first bit of colostrum but most hospitals have one you can use if your hospital stay is extended x

I think it’s hospital dependent.
My last C-section I didn’t have compression socks , they used these inflatable sleeve things 🤷🏼‍♀️

They don’t recommend belly bands after C-sections

They don’t give any form of laxative (or pain relief) you have to provide your own

Can’t help with breast pump side of things sorry.

I took a Medela hospital grade breast pump home for a few months from my hospital. Really hoping to do the same again 🙏🏼
