I think it's great you are thinking ahead. I had an unplanned c-section so I wasn't prepared for it at all. Like many others, I also have the Halo bassinet. I wish I had chosen the Doc-a-Tot because I would love to sleep as close to my son as possible in a safe way. The added benefit of the Doc-a-Tot is how portable it is. The Halo is HEAVY. You can't move it easily in between rooms. However, my 3 month old baby now sleeps great in it. The only problem I had with it in the beginning is that my bed is pretty low to the ground and the Halo bassinet is too high for it to hover right above the mattress as I would like it to. It was very hard to sit up quickly after a c-section so I ended up sleeping on the couch next to the Pack and Play Bassinet which was the perfect height to roll over and check on my newborn son. The swivel feature of the Halo is pretty great though.
My advice is to practice rolling over to sit up. It's in our nature as moms to want to sit up quickly if we hear our baby cry and that was so painful after the c-section. If you roll into a fetal position facing the edge of the bed or couch, then try to lower you legs to the floor and use your arms to push yourself up. The bellybinders really help. I wore 2 at one time sometimes. Even after most of the abdominal pain is gone I found my incision and skin on my stomach to be very tender. Even the waist band of sweat bands would bother me. I got these underwear and they really helped suck everything in and I could even wear jeans without pain. It takes awhile to get used to the corset boning, but I love them.
An another bit of advice I should add is to stay on top of your pain meds! At my hospital even when you are prescribed a stronger medication, you have to request it, they won't just bring it to you at the time of the next dose because of how addicting they are. It took awhile for the anesthesia to wear off so I was surprised by how great I felt until day 2 when I turned down a round of oxycodin and then I felt like I was hit by a truck.
