Instruction
1. After operation of Cesarean section it is possible to carry a postoperative bandage in the form of pants. It is necessary to put on it for the second day after operation. It will help not only to tighten on stomach skin, but also in many respects will facilitate walking and child care. The bandage after Cesarean section becomes especially relevant when the bandage plaster is removed, and the seam needs to be covered with clean diapers. To hold the child, to hold a diaper on a seam and at the same time still to go (for example, for weighing of the child) - it is rather problematic. During the postoperative period the bandage has also a psychological function: it seems that it "helps" a seam, holds a stomach.

It is connected with that, laying should not "close" densely a vagina, free access of air is necessary. When the woman lays down, it is the best of all to take off pants with laying that allocations quietly followed (conveniently in this case to use the disposable absorbing diapers). Cowards bandages in this situation will create adverse "effect of a hotbed" and can provoke (together with other factors) postnatal complications. It is possible to wear a belt bandage after the delivery since first day.

In case during childbirth in weight the woman had an increase within norm, it is possible to choose the size corresponding to prenatal. If the increase in weight big, is better to choose linen one size bigger.
