After birth, do you suggest depends underwear or heavy duty pads? When I had my first the hospital provided me with some big pads & comfortable soft underwear but I want some for when we are back home & im debating which to go for this time, if I should try the depends or just get heavy duty pads.
I used both. I used the pads when I was at home and used the depends when we went out somewhere so I didn’t have to worry about bleeding through my clothes.
That’s a really smart idea! I like that. 😊
I used depends with both. So much simpler and less mess. I don’t even bleed much and still prefer them.
@mommyoftwolittleboys, I got a large. I was a size 6 or 8 before I got pregnant but I gain a lot when I’m pregnant. I bet I’m a 16 or so at the moment.
The tucks and dermoplast are a must. Lol
@mom2squared, I think a size L will be the safest way for me too. I actually tried a pair of my old regular pants the other day to see if they would still go up on me & they did, only thing was I couldn’t buckle them of course lol. But I was happy to see they still fit, with my son I gained more weight. Do you use the depends day & night?
@mommyoftwolittleboys, I do yes. Just easier all around.
I used the depends active fit. They were so much more comfortable than the giant pads. I hate using any kind of pads. I didn’t bleed super heavily either.
I bought both. I wore depends during the day, and combined them at night, but I bled really heavy the first few weeks
I used depends! I had too much to worry about with a newborn, leaky boobs, and a cesarean wound to be worried about possibly leaking out of underwear with pads. So I had to have everything that was convenient and long lasting!!
@shaylajackson931, Perfect! I’m grabbing me some tomorrow. 😊
So this might sound weird or dumb but when you wear depends would you still wear a pad with it or no?
No pads since the depends kinda has like a pad already in it, it’s just more comfort & protects more.
I bought pads, but have seriously been thinking of buying some depends before I go in to have the baby on Wednesday.
I think you should. The hospital will provide you with some really comfortable soft underwear you dispose of but you can get yourself some depends for when you get back home. That’s what I’m planning on doing.
Depends make me feel way more comfortable and protected against leaks
I took a bunch home from the hospital lol I asked them to hook it up and they did!
They sent me home with a good amount of mesh underwear and giant pads. Afterward I bought the biggest overnight pads from target and they were pretty comfy. I didn’t bleed heavily though.
I’m assuming the depends feel like the cloth underwear the hospital provides, if so I loved them & that’s why I am aiming more towards depends.
@mommyoftwolittleboys, yes but not super thin like mesh.
@amouryaya09, That’s really good to know. You get a little more protection with the depends.
Honestly I liked the depends. I felt more secure at night about leaking
That & im sure they are more comfortable too. Did you use the over night depends or just the regular pack?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
the amount of women who are clueless about their own anatomy is so sad and shocking. a lot of the women are older than me and have more children then I do 😳
now I understand that everyone has their own opinion on the topic and grown adults can do whatever they want with their bodies but to deny facts and make up false statements about your own anatomy when it comes to your unborn child is just so disappointing.

IUI Monday!!
So today I went in for my routine bloodwork and ultrasound, and found out that I have three follicles at 17mm! Plus another two at 15mm. When leaving the clinic my FS said to take another dose of gonal-f and come back tomorrow to check to see how big they got and that we would do the iui on Wednesday. Well, after getting home, taking my gonal-f and going out to shovel snow (lol) I get a call saying that I am SURGING!!! I haven't ovulated on my own, or even come close to it in years...
For Fun
With most of us in a sleep regression or exhausted from being working moms, or just plain bored I figured it would be fun to get a little game started... so who's up for 2 truths and a lie? It's easy.. you post 3 facts about yourself, 2 true and 1 lie and when you guess you post yours here's mine:
Depends! They are more comfortable than pads.
