When can I start wearing panty liners instead of pads?! 😩

Question

Can anyone share their experience? I can't take these pads anymore! They're so uncomfortable and itchy. When does the bleeding get light enough to start wearing panty liners?

EDIT: Thanks everyone! I'm currently 11 pp and that weird discharge junk seems to be dwindling down. Hopefully I can switch to liners soon!

Answer

My bleeding got lighter around 2 weeks I believe...its now almost 4 weeks and the pantiliners are still needed unfortunately. Tmi but I have yellowish, sometimes smelly discharge that i assume is old blood. I hope by the 6 week mark its all gone! Hubby is losing his mind with no sex & I'm just not in the mood to give a bj 😁

Answer

I'm 2weeks pp and I thought I'd be able to put on a liner cuz my bleeding stopped for 2 days and I just had a slight discharge thankfully I was at home cuz I sneezed and it wasn't a fun time.. Back to pads it is.. They say with breast feeding it's supposed to make it stop.. I find that it makes it worse 😩

Answer

I'm 10 days post partum and only need a thin liner now. I like the always foam pads as they're absorbent like a pad but thin like a liner (even the overnight ones)

Answer

Have you tried using thin pads?
