Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

okay, my friend suggested I have Granny underwear for after the baby is born in the hospital and I guess for a little while after.

I don't have granny underwear, so I will be buying some.

Can anyone recommend some that are comfy?

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

You can get full cut undies from Victoria's Secret Boday by Victoria collection. Very comfortable, full cut and They are VS so they might feel a little less like "granny" panties!

Ps: you can always catch a good sale, especially with online offers

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

I plan to just buy some nursing tanks/sports bras and panties in one online order from Target. I figure if I need to toss 'em, I don't want to waste too much $$ on them.

you really just need high cut underwear because you'll be wearing big maxi-pads to absorb the bleeding.

i bought a pack of maternity from mimi's, but any high cut underwear will do

I just went to Kmart and bought the cheapest I could find. Makes no sense to buy anything good, since you will probably throw them out after anyway.

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

I got mine from target and one month later I am still wearing them.Chat Icon I have a c-section so they don't rub against my incision.

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

After my c/s I had to wear granny panties too. My mom bought me the Hanes Her Way ones. They are soo comfy and they don't come up to your armpits.

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

do i have to get briefs? I got bikini because all I have are thongs and when I used to wear pads (even the big nightime ones) I wore bikini and it worked fine. Will I need even bigger ones for right after giving birth? Should I return the ones I got or will I use them once I am on to regular pads?
Wow, that is a lot of questions about underwer...

Don't laugh, but men's undies are the best. High cut. THick fabric, and the waistband isn't constricting -- unlike a woman's underwear. Have fun!

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

I just got cheap Hanes Her Way briefs, if they get ruined you won't care. I had a c-section so they went above my incision and way more comfy than my regular panties.

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

honestly, I used whatever I had and it was fine, but I did not get very big with either PG. I was using my bikinis, but I did buy in a larger size further into the PG.

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

I got a 3 pack of disposable underwear for when I was in the hospital b/c your undies kinda get trashed...it was actually comfortable too.

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

I actually recommend getting some maternity ones. Your stomach might still need the extra room for the first few days. Also I had a c-section and the hospital gave me these mesh disposable ones b/c they did not interfere with my incision.

I did wear the maternity granny panties for 6 w PP while I was bleeding since you cannot use a tampon. I got the old navy ones. Comfy and very reasonably priced.

Bikinis may not work if you have to get a section.

Re: Personal ?, a little embarrassing too

I bought a 7 pack of Hanes her Way specifically for the hospital and after. I bled heavily after giving birth and already threw away 2 pairs. A month later I am still wearing them bc I am still bleeding and my incision got infected so I can't have anything near it. Best $7 I spent.
