Had a 3rd degree tear with my first and just wore underwear that would comfortably fit a pad and got durmaplast numbing spray and wasn't bothered by the pad or underwear at all. I did most of my bleeding in the two days I spent at the hospital with both my sons tho. Didn't need big pads for long and never leaked.
yes depends and A pad will have to do that's what I did when I had my first child and would just wear nightgowns ull just be at home
Yup u sure will need some! U don't wanna ruin ur other panties
vaginal.. tear though, not cut lol @heeykayly & idk. I had some olds ones last time I used them. I gotta find some too.
ask for extra mesh ones from the hospital. I went home with 4 pairs and I just would wash them really well with soap and water in the sink, they lasted all through my pp bleeding, no ruined panties!
@heeykayly vaginal. Haha they have depends at any cvs/walgreens/target/Walmart/heb
stitches from C section or from the vaginal cut? @candacelouise @momwife1316 @ftm2babyc lol i dont know where to get them from 😱😭 gotta stock up then haha
@ftm2babyc, oh yeah it's way better than ruining underwear! I don't know why I didn't think about that. Thank you! Such a good idea. Cause I really like all my panties haha. Don't wanna stain them 🙈
lol yeah.. my hospital gives me a pair to go home in. they are mesh and good at holding the pad. I had stitches though so I wasnt about to wear normal underwear.
yeah, I only know this, because think about when you lay down, you don't want a trail up your back! lol its a little embarrassing but it's better than going through a lot of pads and panties (maybe even bed sheets) @candacelouise
@ftm2babyc, that's a good idea! Never thought about that
I'm gonna wear depends in all honesty. I just don't wanna worry about leaking.
@heeykayly, haha I think you're going to want them! Only cause if you get stitched you're not gonna want anything right down there.
Yes you end up having to wear huge pads because you do have blood and stuff come out.
