I took one the day that I got home from the hospital, 2 days after having my son. Once the dr says its okay for you to shower then baths are free game

I didn't take a bath for a week after c section, because it still got wet. So I only wash all my body using warm water slowly. After a week, the doctor gave me water-resistant plaster for the c-section mark, then i go shower only using warm water. A week after, he opened the plaster and say that it's 100% safe o I can truly shower. It was recommended by the doctor to prevent the scar from getting any infection, and to help healing process faster.

What did your doctor say? You should not get your surgery wet before it is completely healed.
