Anyone know what website I can find a list of things to bring to the hospital for a c-section??
Here's one. I would say that you wouldn't need to worry about bringing the massage oil since you are having a c-section. :) Plan on bringing enough supplies (shampoo, soap) to last you at least 3-4 days, since your hospital stay should be about that long. Hope this helps. Congrats and I hope everything goes smoothly!
Reply:I dont know, but it would be like as if it was for a vaginal delivery. You will need;


toothbrush


toothpaste


hair brush


hair ties


glasses if you were them because they don't let you wear contacts in surgery


facial wash if you use it


shampoo


conditioner


body wash


they have giant maxi pads there


pillows


pajamas


bath robe


slippers


loose fitting clothing because of the incision like dresses


socks


underwear loose or low cut


make up if you wear it


magazines or puzzles and cards to pass the time when the baby is sleeping if your not tired


dry snacks


an outfit for the baby to come home in


they have diapers, formula and all other baby stuff you won't need that stuff.


camera


video camera if you want to video tape stuff


personal phone book to call people after the baby is born


unless you use the computer some hosp have a set up were you can use your computer.


I can't think of anything else right now good luck
Reply:Can't advise on a website.





But good luck with your surgery, My daughter is 3mths, born via c-section. If my husband was not there to help me I don't know how I would have managed the first 48hrs.
