Yeah, the need for huge pads and colace isn't any different with a c-section. I also like the nightgown suggestion - so many of my clothes irritated my incision! And this might be a weird thing to buy for someone else, bu I loved high-waist panties (yeah, like granny panties lol) after my c-section because all of my normal underwear pressed right on the incision.

Honestly, there wasn't much else I wanted or needed. I know some moms buy stuff to put on the incision/scar as it heals but I was terrified of mine and didn't want to touch or look at it! Food was great and always much appreciated, as was having someone come over when DH was at work so I could just have some company or someone to hold the baby while I showered or whatever. She won't be able to drive right away due to the painkillers, and being stuck in the house drove me nuts!

I second the pads, colace, night gowns and granny panties. I'd also toss in some snacks.
