Random question. I have hair under my bellybutton where they will do an incision and I normally shave there. Can I still shave for the surgery or do I need to leave it?

Is anyone gonna do belly binding or using a belt?

If so how soon after birth will you start? I'm gonna start using a belly for belly and back support but my pain hasn't completely subsided so I've not started it yet. Just wondering when would be the appropriate time?
