C Section wound

Today is day 5 after c section and I’ve had the dressing taken off earlier. It felt okay with the dressing on but now they’ve taken it off it’s really tender and painful when moving. Has anyone else found this? Is there anything I can do to help other than taking painkillers?

I’m worried about this tomorrow😅 I have heard loose nighties do nothing touches it and just keeping regularly with painkillers x

@Bonnie It’s the underwear issue I’m struggling with, can’t wear lower ones cos it’s on the wound and the massive ones the fabric is touching and hurting 😖 I’m going to go and put a massive nightie on now instead of maternity pj bottoms! Good luck for tomorrow x

I’ve been recommended silicon scar covers by my sister who had a c-section - maybe one to have a look at

@Naomi I’ll have a look, thank you! X
