I used the Always Infinity. I loved them! They were so much better than the hospital ones which I used till I took a shower.

ETA: they are SO thin and absorbent. It doesn't feel like a bulky pad.

Always overnight pads. I tried the hospital ones, but I used my own after the first shower.



same



Here too, the Always thin overnights w/ wings. The hospital ones are soooo thick I felt like I was riding a horse. Chat Icon I wore them for I think 6 weeks after too.

I may be in the minority but I HATED the hospital pads and the mesh underwear. The pads were too long, too thick, completely uncomfortable, and always felt wet to me - so gross. I tried the new Always Infinity pads - the overnight and the regular with wings I think (orange and green wrappers respectively) and I think they're awesome. The top stays nice and dry and they absorb A LOT while still being super thin. Much better than any pad I've ever tried before though I generally stick to tampons.



What is the matter? You didn't like the thong boat?Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon



Thong boat - that's great - lol. Definitely was not into the thong boat :) Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I actually loved the one from the hospital.

At home, I used the super dupper maxi protection with wings. That did the trick!

I swore by the always infinity pads. The ones at North shore hospital were HORRIBLE! I was so happy that I brought my own!

Re: BTDT mom's best pads for after birth?

in the hospital i used theirs.... i also packed my maternity undies since i didnt care if them got tossed...


once home i used the stayfree overnights with night guard... they actually got wider at one end which helped greatly... i just used them backwards so the wider part was in the back for when i was sitting...
i went through two packs... but honestly what is the difference if you buy a bjs value box? you will just use them later one... i only bought packages since i thought of it the day before i went into labor

the top one

I used the ones from the hospital. Those were really the best ones I found. I had a great nurse who hooked me up big time! Chat Icon

I also took a bunch of the disposible undies they provided in the hospital. I took so many that I still have left over and I will pack for this baby!
