pads or depend?

Question

I've had people tell me that depends is over kill and pads work just fine but I've also been told that depends is just more comfortable and less worry about leaking. What do you think works best?

Answer

I used pads last time but I think I'll grab some depends this time around.  Only because I had/am having a c-section and didn't always make it to the bathroom 🤣

Answer

I used pads but the first few days I do wish I’d had something with better coverage, I ended up having to scrub my bed sheets twice, a few changes of clothes and once my couch.

Answer

Thanks for your input everyone!

Answer

BOTH. Depends for the first few days or so because anything convenient and easy is the way to go! I then used pads as soreness and heavier bleeding went away.

Answer

I had a c section and I used the mesh underwear and the hospital pads. I took some home with me and by day 5 pp I am using normal pads and wearing my own underwear. Everyone is different, but I did not need the depends. I’m glad I didn’t end up getting them.
