I had an emergency section a week and a half ago. Best advice I got was to take the painkillers at regular intervals, not just when you think you need them. I had an alarm set on my phone for 4 hour intervals for the paracetamol and DH had his set for 8 hours for the ibruphrophen (no idea how that's spelled and I have a sleeping baby on me so I'm not getting up).

I also had one of the feeder cushions (a curved pillow that fits around me, sort of a horseshoe shape), which has been fabulous.
