Csection mommas yeast problems?

I have the most sensitive skin EVER! Ugh. With DD, vaginal birth, I had a terrible pregnancy rash. With DS, I had terrible sensitivity issues with surgical tape and some minor yeast issues. This time, I have two fairly large patches of yeasty skin near my incision... Anyone else?! Other than exposing the area to the air as much as possible and using nystatin powder, is there anything I can do? I feel so gross!!!

  • my doctors had me place a pad with dry weave over my incision to keep it dry. especially during the night sweats. i used always overnights because they were long but im sure any brand would work.

  • My nurse gave me a tip. After a shower use a hair dryer on low/cool to dry the incision. Works like a charm!
