What pads for post-birth?

I think someone recommended Always Infinity but wanted to get more input. BTDT what did you use last time or what is best?! TIA!

Re: What pads for post-birth?

I personally was not a fan of the Always Infinity so I ended up using, I think, Kotex Ultra Thin. But I didn't bleed that excessively, so those might be too thin for some.

What pads for post-birth?

For the first few days after DS I used Always Super pads (the old fashioned thick somewhat long ones) after about a week I was able to wear the ultra thin ones. I personally don't like the infinity.

I used the hospital ones on the first day, because I couldn't get out of bed and the nurses had to change me. Day 2 - I had the old fashioned thick overnight ones because honestly its worse than a regular month... they definately were nicer quaility than the hospital ones....Within a couple days I was back to the Ultra Thin.... Infinity wasn't around in 09 but I find the other Ultra Thins brands to have more width.

What pads for post-birth?

At first, I used the biggest Always overnight thick ones they have -- I think it's an orange package or a purple package? The thin ones, I would've been changing every 10 minutes. After around 2 weeks, I switched to the always infinity ultra-thin overnight extra long ones. I liked how thin they were, but still wanted as much coverage as possible. Last thing I wanted to have to think about was dealing with cleaning leaks off the couch while I was trying to deal with cleaning poop that shot everywhere off furniture too.

i did always infinity once i finishe the ones i got from the hospital. They are thin and actually comfortable- as comfortable as pads can be. They are very absorbant, and never leaked. they come with wings or without.

I didn't like the Always Infinity. I used the hospital pads for as long as possible, with the disposable underwear!

Re: What pads for post-birth?

I used always infinity. i even used them for after my water broke to get to the hospital. I thought they were wonderful!! I did however use the hospital pads up first. I actually wanted them to be thicker for a little bit more cushion.

I used the hospital ones at first, and then the always infinity after that.
