How soon can I bath?
4 days post section, got my 5 day check tomorrow where they will remove the dressing. Obviously I’m going to ask the midwife if my incision looks okay to bath but when I’ve searched I get soooo many different answers! Few days to 6 weeks?!
Desperate for a nice bath!

I bathed at day 7 when my dressings came off xx
I had my first bath day 5 when my dressing and stitches were removed

I was advised that I needed to wait for the dressing to be removed before bathing. But then once it’s been removed to be careful as soaps/body wash can irritate it. I’m yet to have a bath, I’ve just been showering as nervous I’ll aggravate my scar 🙈 x
