Re: Girls having a c-section
I don't know if you need that many PJ's - truth is, it will be hard to maneuver and it will probably just be more comfortable, and easier for them to check your incision, if you wear the robe they give you. I didn't change into clothes until the 3rd day in the hospital.
The other thing - you may not be able to get up so easily to go get food from the vending machine - it's a good idea to pack snacks for yourself that are readily available.
Also, if you DO pack clothes for yourself, and you do plan on nursing, it's worth it to pack a nursing tank/shirt.
And, of course, some clothes and toiletries for DH
