Remove csection waterproof bandage

My csection waterproof bandage can be removed tomorrow, on day 8 post delivery, as per kkh nurse. However, my incision still hurts. Is it normal? Im so scared they open and its exposed and open back or something. Since after the waterproof bandage they say can shower as per normal etc. At which day post delivery did your waterproof bandage removed and incision no longer covered ? And does it hurt when in contact with water ? Im so scared cs its weird how the stitching healed in just a week. #FTM

C sect mom here. I didn’t put on any waterproof bandage. My gynae said I can showered as per normal but I only did so after the confinement. The wound didn’t hurt or sting when come in contact with water. I avoid touching it though 🤣

Oh my means once discharged, theres no plaster or anything covering the incision is it ? Like it’s exposed ?
