I just wore above the knee loose dresses.
They’re so easy to manoeuvre in and not a pain to try and get up or down when going to the loo!

I’d recommend your maternity clothes – loose dresses and tops – especially soft ones – are great when you’re recovering from abdominal surgery.

Nothing tight on your tummy. I actually wore some of my maternity clothes still, or hubby’s big flannelette shirt. I was told not to lift anything heavier than my newborn (that includes older children), don’t stretch to do jobs like hang clothes on the line or get cups out of a top cupboard, and don’t drive a car for 6 weeks (although I know women that have). Keep you suture site clean, and when it starts healing well, I found moisturing cream like Cocoa Butter helped stop the itchiness of the scar.

Cry recovery shorts, really expensive but so worth it.

rest, dont lift anything, and no right fitting clothes

My advice would be not to wear jeans or othertight fitting clothes.

try a long dress nothing that will sit on your scar line.

tracksuits are great – thats what I wore.

Loose clothings but the most important thing is keeping the wound clean to prevent infection. Just go back wearing those maternity clothes for now

how did you go?

Hope you found some comfortable clothes to wear.

What was the best recommendation?

What did you end up deciding?

Really baggy clothing and big undies

Yes – big supportive knickers are great.

Loose fitting clothes at first to prevent irritation.

Have you chosen what you want to wear

Choose undies that goes above or bellow the cut. Remember that you will be bleeding so my advise is to not have a too big undies otherwise you will have some accidents.
I didn’t want to wear pjs day and night, so I choose the tights that I used while pregnant and a large top, it was very comfy and made me feel good.
As soon I had less pain I started wearing recovery pants. I love it!
My baby is 11 weeks and my tummy is flat like before pregnant. I am so happy as I’ve gained 20 kilos during pregnancy and managed to get my body back to normal.

Undies 1x bigger than u’d normally wear and pyjamas 1 size larger, basically wear anything loose around youa waist.

Granny undies that are a couple of sizes too big and loose fitting dresses like baby doll ones
