There's a product called a 'Kiddopotamus' that Babies R Us sells. It's a velcro blanket, and only costs $10. The 'Miracle Blanket', (same thing) sells for $30. They're pretty cool.

As for the soreness, how long has it been? I had quite a bit of tenderness for several weeks, like 4. I had to stand up slowly for the first 4 weeks. I was driving & picking up my toddler out of sheer necessity, not because it was the 'smart' thing to do. The incision site itself is still numb, and can remain so for up to a year. How's her temperature? If it's high she could have the start of an infection. Best to get it checked out. Better to call and go see a doc for no reason than to not go and really need it! I called a couple weeks after mine because I'd read so much about blood clots, and if you have pain in your legs to call immediatly. Turns out what I was feeling was nothing, but I'm glad I asked.
