Postpartum must haves for MOM ??

Question

First time mom here, 13 weeks left in this pregnancy. It just occurred to me about the “afters” of giving birth, healing, taking care of yourself down there etc. 
Does anybody have recommendations of what to have on hand for after baby comes? Some must have items?
♥️♥️

Answer

Hospitals will give you a lot of the postpartum things that you'll need like a peri bottle, but here are things the hospital didn't give me that I loved:
-homemade padsicles (pad + aloe + witch hazel and freeze it = ice pack for down there) I went through a ridiculous number of these
-pads and panty liners of all sizes. It's hard to know how much to buy because it varies, but you'll want a nice selection.
-a cushion to put on my wooden kitchen chairs. Wooden chairs are painful and uncomfortable to sit on for weeks if not months
-stretch mark cream. If you used one while pregnant, you'll want to continue using it after you give birth.
-(opt.) tea/coffee/wine or whatever is your fav "relaxation drink"
-(opt.) A postpartum belly wrap/band to encourage your muscles to shrink back into place.

Answer

Diapers for you, they’re so much nicer than those huge ass pads. I never needed to use it, but they have pads that you can freeze and which hazel. I got a postpartum belly band off Amazon and it was my favorite thing ever, I did waist training before getting pregnant so maybe That’s not for everyone. It’s a comfort thing for me though. If you’re gonna nurse get some brewers yeast, I made brownies with it and my supply doubled

Answer

Peri bottle, big pads/diapers are a life saver for the first few days, nursing bra/pads, big water bottle, easy snacks. And gentleness for yourself. Postpartum is really hard lol be gentle on yourself

Answer

I had a 1st degree tear and natural birth this is all I used. Tucks pads for itching, hemorrhoid wipes (bc I got them real bad), adult diapers - I used the Tena brand bc the discreet ones I bought originally were too small so make sure u get the right size!! And my midwives gave me a peri bottle I used for the first week to help with stinging. I'm 3 weeks PP now and now I'm just using tucks pads with normal period pads and bleeding has almost completely stopped

Answer

Peri bottles, comfy undies, robe, and maybe some gift cards to order yourself food when you don't want to cook.
