@emkasting, Always makes them, I super reccomend them! Those huge thick pads HURT when your bits are all swollen.
@littlemissrainesmommy my hospital gave me a perri\water bottle (so when you pee it doesn't burn), pads, flushable scentless wipes, a spray anesthetic (benzocaine, I think you can get it at most pharmacies), and Tuck's witchhazel hemmoroid pads (they were awesome!). Water, dab w\ wipes, spray anesthic, "tuck" witch hazel along your bits, pad, mesh panties, in that order. I feel like I recovered super fast thanks to that, and I had an episiotomy!

Flex foam? What are those haha I wanna see they sound way better than maxi pads. I think I'm gonna get some depends too, I've heard they're way more comfortable and easier to deal with than a pad

mesh panties are the best for c-section mommy's but I remember running through the pads really fast so this time I packed extra

Also buy some witch hazel pads!!!! I wouldn't worry about taking any pads there but I would take witch hazel pads to put in the pad. Helps your lady bits after delivery especially if you tear.

@nursebetti, I wanted some so bad lol I wish my mom still worked in a nursing home, best believe she'd be getting me some hahahah

@littlemissrainesmommy, that sucks I loved the mesh panties. I took a whole package of them when I was discharged 😂😂😂

@10yearslater0205, I know most hospitals still do mesh panties, my hospital doesn't though.. I was pretty excited about them too ha!

@littlemissrainesmommy, I packed two in my back just because the hospital is 40 minutes away from my house so I just wanted to be safe on the way home

I loved the maxi pads and mesh panties ... They do use them still I actually just had a TAC placement in December and they gave me them to wear 😍

@jennyrose1145, my hospital doesn't do mesh panties lol just maxi pads.. haha

no they have all you need

The ones they use for the hospital are like diapers and they give you a mesh panty to hold them on. It's not like maxis you buy in the store. Jsyk
