Was talking to my MIL about my upcoming ELCS, telling her I was going into hospital at 8 for an 11am section.
MIL: Oh yes, because they'll want to give you a good wash!
Me: ???
MIL: Yes, you have to be sterile going into theatre.
Now I've had an EMCS before and remember no such thing.
So should I expect 'a good wash' when I go in ?? I was planning to shower at home beforehand!
