What did you wear for your belly after c-section?

Just wondering if anyone wore something on their tummy after c-section and did it help? With pain, jiggling, basic comfort, healing? I had come across csectionrecoverykit.com and it looked interesting wondering if anyone has bought anything from them. Also if anyone has any suggestions or info I'm all ears.

For the ride home from the hospital I had a pillow in my lap. I just wore comfortable pants.

I just wear my sweat pants.. I've also stolen some of DF's sweat pants, too. I still can't wear anything tight.. it's been almost a week and I give it at least another week or so till I can wear even my maternity jeans again.

I wore sweatpants granny panties and really big shirts, nothing that would hurt the c section area or be tight on it.

I just wore sweat pants... my belly didn't hurt much afterwards, it was only when I had the staples in still that it bothered me. I put a pad in front of my incision so that my sweats didn't rub up against it

i got a belly band thing from the hospital, but i ended up not needing it initially. but once i started doing stuff around the house again and going out, i would have to wear it for support.
