My c/s is scheduled for Friday... and I was wondering if anyone knows if Troy Beaumont provides a binder for recovery... or if I should buy my own...

Thanks!  So excited to meet our little one in 4 days!! wow....

I got one when I was there. Good luck. I had a great recovery after the c-section I hope you do to.

What time did u schedule it for? I heard the best time to schedule is the first appt in the morning b/c if you do it later there are usually emergency ones that bump you.

Hmm... I must be "out of the loop" on these "binders".  I had a C/S at St. Joes Ann Arbor, and I've never even heard of them.  Someone please enlighten me.  Are they supposed to help with recovery? Perhaps I'll need to look into these for Baby #2.

If they don't automatically give you one, just ask your nurse and they can get it.  My sister loved hers and lived in it for the first week.  I tried wearing one after having DS and it was horrible.  It made the pain so much worse.

Thanks ladies!!

I'm scheduled for 10:30am which I think is the second appointment.. not sure... I hope we don't get bumped... lol

A binder is basically like a wide maternity belt you wear around your incision that sometimes helps recovery pain... but we'll see. I've heard mixed reviews as well...

2 days!! Can't believe it!
