Postpartum … diapers?

Question

Hey mamas- I’m almost 31 weeks with baby number 3 and starting to reflect on everything I didn’t get right the first two times. Has anyone gone straight to diapers post partum like the first few days out of the hospital? With my first two I tried xxxxxl pads but definitely ruined underwear (and pants). And just generally any other tips for post partum recovery you have. We’re getting there!

Answer

I’m thinking about wearing the underwear with the pads in them. Which are basically pull ups for adults. It sounds strange but they have become popular.

Answer

Me with my second I got some big ole nappies for myself 😝 just find it way easier and I’m not worried about leaking at all so doing the same this time. I did also get this time some of the Friday stuff for postpartum healing like the cooling pads and this foam stuff I forgot the name of

Answer

Omg yes! I didn’t use them until after my third baby and I wished I would have from the start. I used the post partum diapers with those Frida mom ice pads, game changer 🙌🏼

Answer

So 3 years ago when I had my daughter I believe I used a diaper and a pad? 
I’ve also heard about using dog pads! 
The diapers are definitely a pricer route however, maternity under won’t hold what you need and I couldn’t fit into regular underwear just yet!

Answer

I used the always discreet brand because I didn’t want to ruin underwear and hate how pads can shift.

Answer

I used pads and underwear with my first. With my second I used diapers and it was such a game changer. Definitely recommend! I didn’t leak with the diapers and I found them more comfortable than giant pads. Also easier clean up - just toss it out and put a new one on. I also made padsicles ahead of time and they worked well inside the diaper for added relief.

Answer

I use the always discreet brand as soon as I get home from the hospital. I also have csections and they seem to feel better on my incision than underwear and pads do.
