Removing C Section Bandage

Hi all. My doctor instructed me to remove the bandage 10 days post operation and before my office follow-up visit next week. What is the best way to remove the bandage? I'm scared the strips will come up as well if I try to peel the bandage off 🫣

10 days?! Wow! I had to remove mine the day after the csection. The nurses literally made me do it.

I went in to the office to have mine removed they just pulled it off they didn't use anything special or anything and I didn't get mine off till a week pp

You could do it in the shower that's what they told me. I was told to remove it the day after though

I took mine off 7 days after op, did it in the shower, hard to peel off but it i was scared too, thinking midwife will take it off but I did it as was told by community to do it myself

I didnt remove mine they told me too but i didnt lmfao. My drs medical assitant took them off for me

@Bianca same! They made me do it 24 hours later

I was instructed to get it very very wet in the shower, and that’ll make it easier to pull off

Wow 10 days is a long time! They removed mine in the hospital on like day 2. I showered and everything at the hospital

The midwife came around for bubs check up 5 days after coming home and they removed it for me.
