Hi, am having planned c-section on thursday and though I have been told that I can't wear anything under the gown, being quite well endowed (and pregnant!) I'm going to feel very naked indeed and will feel very self conscious "getting them out" to try and breastfeed in that crucial first few hours whilst in recovery. I can't see it being that easy to get a bra straight on after the op either.
A midwife mentioned I can't wear one because of the metal? - why not?, I'll have metal rings on which will be taped up...
Has anyone worn a bra during their c-section? Will I get away with it?
Stupid concern I know (should really be worried about far more important things!) but just wanted advice/ any experiences please as it's niggling me. Thank you.
