Depends or Pads ?

Question

I am honestly debating on if I should wear pads & cotton panties OR

just buy a box of depends diapers for my self am I silly or is this just not easier ? How you ladies feel about it ?

Answer

Depends are so much more comfortable to me than pads. I switch over to pads when bleeding slows

Answer

Always makes disposable underwear that are comfy and work very well.

Answer

How long do you think you will bleed for? 
I bled longer with my second and apparently the more children you have the longer it lasts.
So with my 1st I bled for 2 weeks and with my 2nd I bled for 4 weeks. 
That being said I’m going to try disposable pants this time round as I can’t stand wearing pantyliners 😫
I’m usually a tampon girl (when I’m not pregnant)

Answer

I'm going to try both just to see what I like better. I only bought a small pack to start. I hate ruining underwear, so I figured disposable underwear might be worth trying at least for the first few days. I also bought the frida mom disposable underwear to try out and I'm making padsicles. It's like one big postpartum care experiment. Haha

Answer

I’m using depends and once bleeding is minimum I’ll switch over to pads.

Answer

Depends! I used always discrete. They are amazing and way more comfortable than pads.

Answer

Depends!  I found the post partum pads too bulky which caused pain - i had a little tearing and hemorrhoids from pushing.  Going with depends again this go around although i am checking to see if there are affordable heavy bleed period underwear.

Answer

I'm confused as to why anyone would choose to wear depends. I'm in Australia and we only ever get told to use pads by the hospital. Is there are reason for them? I'm not being nasty, I'm simply confused as I've seen this type of topic many times and never asked.

Answer

I'm bringing both, then I can decide depending on what's more comfortable - or I've also heard people recommend a pad inside the depends, if you have heavy bleeding in the first 24 hours then it'll be less likely to leak.

Answer

Depends ! for me I bleed way too much and more safer every time I wear pads I always bleed out through my pants
