I had my strapping off on 7DPO, she then put a steri strip on and told me to remove it that night and shower. Not had anything on my incisions since then xx
The nurse said to take it off thursday… could i get a shower with them on? Im all the leaflets i was given from my surgeon it says not to get them wet for the first 7days so i dont see why i cant shower so annoying.. oh an im getting ahead of myself im 9dpo haha xx
Is there anything you could use to cover them with @laura ?!
I know it’s a bit random but I work in a hospital and sometimes if someone has a cast on like their arm or leg we use a bag and tape around it in the shower lol
Not sure what you could use to cover but worth a think? Xx
I was thinking that Mae but cant think of anything i can use lol in the paperwork i got from my first consulation theres abit about aftercare an it says not to get the incissions wet for the first 7days so i dont understand why im not allowed to shower yet im on day 9. Getting a wash just isnt the same i want a nice hot shower lol xx
@lauraj1987 just thinking, could you remove them, have a shower, just water on incisions, and then redress them yourself with a big plaster? I know how annoying it was to not shower and I only had to last 7 days! Let alone 9 + 4 more! Xx
I have just spoke to someone from the clinic where i had my op an they have said to wait till i take them off thursday before getting them wet. Looks like another crappy shallow bath lol xx
