Post birth. Had episiotomy yesterday am, narrowly avoiding emcs. Surgeon states to keep stitches clean, very clean.
How on earth do you do this? I am bleeding heavily. Still in hospital atm but don't have a shower at home, although a shower attachment on the bath so could stand and rinse. But there'll be blood again within minutes.
What's the best way to clean the area and avoid infection?
