There isn't a lot of lists out there for moms having c-sections!!! I am having my 4th daughter in about 2 months. I have had c-sections with each one and found each time I forgot something :) My youngest is 5 so it's been a bit since I've had to get bags ready.
Thank you so much for taking the time to get this together. I forgot how uncomfortable the sheets & pillows were and have now added that to my list!
I did like the net underwear the hospital provided, they were loose and very comfortable. Maybe the hospital you went to had a different type and I'm sorry for that because I LOVED the ones I was given, they were actually 100 times better than the ones I brought myself. And I too took 3 or 4 pairs home with my last 2.

This is nice to have for women who know they are having a c-section. I have had two c-sections and I'm having my third in 3 days. I however disagree on some of the things that are said to bring on this list. I did not want to wear any of my own clothes. I only wore the hospital gown. When I went for walks I wore another gown put on backwards, I'm taking my robe this time around. It is way too uncomfortable to wear pants and when you are in the hospital noone cares what you are wearing. I wouldn't have wanted my own underwear either. I wore the net underwear the entire time I was in the hospital and I took two pairs home and wore them for a week at home. My regular underwear were too uncomfortable to wear on my belly. I am bringing my own pillow but I found the sheets at my hospital to be fine. Good luck to everyone having a c-section.
