What do my c-section moms use to keep your incision dry and protected ?

@jazmanboyd2 awesome🙌

@blujul8, yeah it’s starting to stay dry since I’ve been using dial soap and gauze. It’s looking better.

@jazmanboyd2 same thing happened to me this year I was constantly sweating cause it was 3rd child so I think the skin overlapping cause that sweat and it's so annoying but I would put long pieces of gauze with tape to keep in place and it worked and then I would lay down flat on the bed and let it air dry I was getting to the point that I thought it would never heal but it does. I hope u don't stress out to much u'll b ok hope u heal well blessings.😊

@jsco, yeah I stopped using it. I use dial soap and gauze now

I didn't have a c-section. But you should never use peroxide on open wounds! It kills the good stuff that's helping you heal

@bayou_donna, I might call her tomorrow

@jazmanboyd2, don’t be afraid. You don’t want it to get infected and maybe the doctor can give you something that will dry it better.

@bayou_donna, no I’m scared to call her. It don’t look infected or anything but I feel like it’s not healing like it should. I know I’m not getting enough protein either which is good for healing. I just bought some vitamins today.

Lol yes the sweat is real but not definitely put a pad their something to soak the moisture even a panty liner mama

@jazmanboyd2, did you mention to your doctor that your cut is not drying or is open? My cut didn’t open but maybe a very little in one area that sealed back a few days afterwards.

@skysmommy04, yeah that worked for me but 5 to 10 minutes later I’m sweating again lol. I just want to cry sometimes.

Yea I literally showered and put a blow dryer on that bad boy with the cool setting or I laid in front of a fan

@bayou_donna, I lost 20lbs right after giving birth. 2 weeks later and I’ve probably lost even more now, but this extra fat is not going away.

@skysmommy04, I have like 4 little openings so I’m scared that would really burn for me. I use peroxide tho. I just can’t keep it dry tho afterwards. i found these cotton rounds so I’m going to see how these work for me.

@jazmanboyd2, lol yes although I’m losing my baby weight well. I drink lots of water.

@bayou_donna, yes

@jazmanboyd2, like a fat roll 😑😩?

It stung a tiny bit nothing harsh but also mine was healing great before I left the hospital and alcohol dries it out

@eaj8290, they do look comfortable

@bayou_donna, do you have the extra skin that hangs over your incision?

I think i may have used a pad as well for an extra absorption layer, but I lived in these as long as I could.

@skysmommy04, that alcohol didn’t burn?

@eaj8290, I have really stretchy underwear. I just have a problem with sweating right on my incision.

I wore a pad on it but also when I showered I cleaned it with alcohol and dried it

@pettybetty, I did that with my twins but my incision is different this time. I had strips of tape my first c section but none this time. I have extra skin that falls over my incision so I’m always sweating there so it’s always wet. It’s so annoying.

It's like Depends. Not as comfy as the hospital undies, but same idea

@eaj8290, I didn’t know they made diapers. Are they like the underwear in the hospital ?

I don’t recall using anything but keep it clean with soap and water and wearing those stretchy underwear from the hospital (they were comfortable)

I wore a pad over mine during the day and left it uncovered at night.

I wear always diapers lol
