Mommies who had a c-section - panties ?

That may seem like an odd question but did you have to get new panties after you had your c-section.

I just realized that mine are right by the bikini line and wonder if I should get new one like high cut. I am concerned it's going to fall right on the c-section scar.

I always had low rise underware, and I continued to wear my maternity underware after I gave birth so it really didn't interfere with the incision.

Right after surgery I wore the net panties they give you in the hospital, even took some home Chat Icon soon after I was wearing my maternity panties, then maybe 2 months after back to my regular High Cuts.

My c-section scar is even lower than my low rise panties- so I was fine. I just ditched the thongs for bikini briefs.

I bought some big ugly underwears before I went in the hospital. I didn't know I would need a csection, but I remember someone on here saying it would be much more comfortable if you end up with one. I'm glad I bought those granny undies!

I also took home some of the disposables from the hospital. I had a few pairs of high cut maternity panties that I wore after that and pretty soon I was in regular maternity bikinis - they didn't bother the incision.

I bought a couple of pair of grandma undies to wear in the hospital, but tossed them afterwards.

DEFINITELY get granny wear!!! I bought Hanes - but the big bloomer kind - trust me - you dont want anything near the bikini line - all my panties were low rise things - major no no after a CS!!!

Re: Mommies who had a c-section - panties ?

My C-section is coming up but I can speak from experience having a myomectomy. My scar is in the same place as a C-section scar. I wore boy shorts and they were wonderful and kinda cute!!! I stopped wearing thongs, not because of the back but because they all seemed to fall the same in the front and they crossed my scar in a way that annoyed me. Sometimes I slept in mens boxer briefs and those were great. If you need to use pads, though, it might be different. This was what I did when I was no longer bleeding but I was still sore. My soreness and the scar tenderness lasted quite a while, so the buying all new types of underwear was totally worth it.
