Buy a binder before your surgery
Before my surgery, I ordered a binder from this site:
http://www.hysterectomystore.com/tum...-2-cool-packs/
This was a godsend and I would not have been without it for anything!! I'm 10 days pre-op, and I used the binder every day, every time I was getting out of bed. Sometimes, I even slept with it to keep the stomach in place. It made everything so much easier!
Recovery would have been a lot harder without the binder, so it has my highest recommendation. Get one before your surgery! Since I left the hospital and came home, I haven't taken it off. It's too comfy having it on, and it's helping me so much when I move/walk around
