How bad are scented pads/adult diaper products?
I just had my baby 5 days ago and I’m a bit concerned because I just realized the adult diapers my husband picked up from the store for me are lightly scented. I’m afraid it will give me an infection or something. Should I stop using them?
I don’t want to waste them and I didn’t have any tears or anything and I’m healing well.
I know you aren’t supposed to use scented stuff down there..
I didn’t get many pads and disposable underwear from the hospital and I don’t like pads because they always scrunch up and leak on the sides. Adult diapers have been so much nicer postpartum for me. Quicker to change them too when I have a crying baby to attend to.
