Hi Neeti, a light shower is ok but you can not take proper bath right after a C-section. Typically, it will take 7-10 days before the incisions and sutures heal, and getting them wet can lead to other infections and adverse effects. If the doctor used Steri–strips for the incision, don’t try to remove or wash the glue. Let the strips fall off before you go for a warm bath. Light sponging and shower is ok but you should wait for at least 10 days before you fix a warm long bath. you should also consult your doctor as she knows your case better
