Hello!
I've just been told that I will be having a c-section in 2-3 weeks (38-39 weeks) due a number of reasons. In case this affects the answers to my first q it's because my blood pressure has gone up (had pre existing high bp), my kidney function isn't great (again already had problems before pregnancy but it's got worse) and the baby is breech (they won't try and turn her due to my bp).
I have some questions if that's ok...
how long do they generally keep you and baby in after a section (assuming no complications)?
How many pairs of big pants do I need? I bought 5...
Do they leave the catheter in for a while? I'm usually a pj's girl so trying to work out if I need to buy some nighties.
Any hospital bag tips?
Any other general tips?
Thanks in advance! X
