Hi mummies.
Im due to give birth in 9 weeks time.
Im wondering if its bettwr to take maternity disposable underwear or normal, also which maternity pads does everyone prefer after birth.
I had my other little girl not long ago and took quite a few pairs of normal underwear which ended up ruined as i bled quite badly and my pads wernt that strong even doubling up with them i still leaked.
Thankyou so much.
Also is there anything that anyone would recommend taking to hispital thats not on hospital lists
Thankyou
Xx

Biggest black high waisted underwear you can find and I found Tesco maternity pads great. They weren't too bulky but padded enough that they we good for sitting and they aren't too expensive £1.50? Possibly for a pack of 10

I used tena pants initially which were great & high enough to cover c section incision.they don’t have th within waistbandnof most disposable pants so much more comfy.
