best panties for recovery???

Question

I'm a ftm and I'm almost 30 weeks. I have everything set up and ready for baby but literally nothing for my recovery. Is there a type of panty you'd suggest? Or just any cotton panty? Also is there anything else that's vital to have during that time? I'm due in December and probably will only go outside for his dr appts so I want to have everything stocked and ready

Edit: I work in a bra/panty specialty store so I'm also wondering if I should buy from work since they're better quality or just get the panties from the pack at like Walmart or something?

Answer

That's just the pad inside. The panty is just mesh.

Answer

I've bought fairly inexpensive multi packs of soft cotton 'full briefs' that cover my bump (two sizes, some that fit easily now at 8 months and the size down). It's what was suggested to me by the teacher at my antenatal class who said they'd be most comfortable and work well with c-sections since they won't rub or catch on my incision.  I've also bought a pack of disposable underwear for the first few days when I'm told the bleeding will be at the worst.

Answer

Biiiig ones. Over here (UK) the midwives tell you to double up on pads for the first day or so (or at least that's what I had with both my boys). You also want to be comfortable as you'll still have a bit of a bump while everything goes back to normal and if you have to have stitches or anything you want something that's not too tight so maybe go a size or 2 up?
