Scheduled c section

Hi mamas! I’m scheduled for a c section for my twins in about 3-4 weeks and preparing my hospital bag, I was wondering what recovery things i should order from amazon like the always diapers for adults, any certain creams,stool softener etc?? ( already have pjs and toiletries ready for me and girls)

Also i’m honestly so scared as a ftm (i also have get anxiety in general lol) so pls tell me additional any tips and your c section experiences ! 😅🙏

Diapers for sure! They help tighten you back in as well which was nice. I got a belly binder and it’s seemed to help but I didn’t start wearing that until about 5 days post partum. I bought the Momcozy ice pack version as well and literally never used it. Dulcolax liquid bottle worked great!

My hospital prescribed me stool softeners as they prescribe strong pain relief so that was good, I’d ask about that.

For my twins I didn’t really need anything different than a normal singleton.

That was my second section last week and it’s normal to be nervous but it’s honestly so fine and recovery isn’t as bad as people think it will be after the first couple of days I’m up and pretty mobile.
