I’m embarrassed to have to ask. But I have quite bad anxiety and my worst fear is getting an infection or sepsis after my c section on Tuesday.
I’ve read into how to look after the incision afterwards and regularly showers are recommend (twice a day?) they say just to use water on the wound and make sure it is super super dry all of the time.
So my question is, if only using water is best.. what do I do about shampoo, conditioner and body wash? I feel like all those suds and bubbles in the wound wouldn’t do it much good if they’ve got dirt in from my hair and body.
Am I just over thinking it?
