C-sect binder

Question

Hi! Ill be doing c-sect at Thomson Medical Centre. I also have a postpartum massage package, which will start 3 weeks after c-sect (after getting clearance from gynae that the wound is okay). The massage will come with a binder that Ill get to keep.I understand that TMC also sells binder, but at a higher price ($66~) than what we can possibly source online.My question is, should I buy one binder first to bring to hospital and wear? Any recommendations? Or is it okay to wait 3 weeks? Thanks for the help! :)#1stimemom

from my past experience, nurse will ask if u bring binder right after csec and put on for u at ops theatre (I didn't know must bring so I didn't🙄 and use the one from hospital which cost me $100+) so is advisable to get b4 csec
