    I’m 6 days post op, just seen the nurse. She removed my dressings and told me I can shower as normal now but I forgot to ask if I can bathe? I’ve been having shallow baths so I don’t get the dressings wet but now they’re off do I still need to keep them from getting submerged? Thanks girls x

    My nurse told me I can’t have a deep bath where I get my incisions wet until my 6 week check. I’ve been having shallow baths, leaving my sports bra on but not letting the water get high x
