Depends or Pads for after birth?

Question

Answer

They sent me home from the hospital with pads and tons of mesh underwear, so I just used pads and the mesh for awhile and had no issues whatsoever. It's all personal preference and whatever makes you feel comfortable though!

Answer

I am personally leaning towards depends. Just because they seem easier to deal with.

Answer

FTM here so whatever hospital gives me lol

Answer

Don't buy too many. I stocked up on pads and didn't even go through one bag with PP

Answer

I used the always infinity pads. They are super thin and hold a lot. You can get really good overnight ones

Answer

I'm going to use the thin depends this time. For me using pads was just very messy with my first and I would not like to deal with that again.

Answer

Psh, pads! I used the mesh panties for one day after getting home. Then I bought black boy shorts from target, one size larger than usual. I wanted to have some of my dignity back, lol!

Answer

I like the hospital panty with pad better ... The only thing is the pads are so it tears the up the panty on the crotch area... I tried the depends today (leaving home) and it was ok but the part that sits against my stomach gets isn't the fold of the incision when sitting... Doesn't hurt or irritate it but I would prefer to be cautious and not have anything interfere with the incision...

Answer

Cloth pads

Answer

Depends as long as you're not leaving the house lol.  I didn't bleed on any clothes or furniture.
