This helped me the first few days after surgery to keep everything in place. Sometimes the hospital will give you one.
NYOrtho 9" Abdominal Binder 3-Panel Unisex
LOVED this! It helped me get home safely without getting hurt by a seatbelt. I could walk around the house wearing it with no risk of my dog jumping up and hurting me. It was great on the couch too for holding my snacks.
MOYOAMA Hysterectomy Pillow Post Surgery
Another great pillow option
Hysterectomy Pillow with Pocket for Hot Cold Pack

This group was so great for me. I learned so much from others.
