after giving birth how long did u ladies bleed for n what did u use pads tampons ? cause I hate pads n I sure ain't…

You cant use tampons for 6 weeks. I bled for 6 weeks, and it was so heavy that a pad was too small, mommy diapers were my only option for 3 weeks, then i went on to overnight pads. Think of it as your period making up for lost time, its not a pretty sight haha.

oh gosh I'm not excited for that it must be hard taking care of a new born n having to worey about bleeding in your sleep that's why I don't like pads I always leak in my sleep oh gosh @rachel8792

I'm right there with you. I despise pads but I know you can't use tampons for 6ish weeks. I hate wearing 'diapers' lol. I'll just have to get over it though since it happens to everyone.

I was worried about that too, so I stuck with the mesh panties, and mommy diapers they give you, its just a pad the size of the underwear front to back. I didnt leak though since its so big. The second day after the baby was born, I had two blood clots the size of golf balls come out, I called the nurse super fast. I thought I was dying. The nurse laughed and told me its normal haha

I just can't wrap my head around sleeping or sitting in my own blood you know cause that's what's happening with pads @jacesterlingsmommy

Same here✋ I don't like the feel of just sitting in wetness it's gross. Especially at night time. I just feel like I need to constantly go wipe. lol

I am kinda of use to wearing pads already cause I don't use tampons at all anyways but I will be changing my pads every 20-30 minutes
