Support Garments?? Other advice? (emergency c-section mama)

Shawnee11507

I had to have an emergency c-section on Monday. I was planning on a vaginal birth and didn't read up on c-sections. I feel like no one told me much of anything. They didn't give me any literature to read or discharge self-care. All I was told is basically to keep my incision dry, call if it gets puss/infected looking, and see my OB in 2 weeks.

What else should I know? Limitations? Can I start wearing a support garment to help recovery or should I wait until it heals more? If I can, is there one you suggest?

 Thanks
