Nice knickers post c-section

3 replies

I'm about four months on from my second c-section, healed well etc. I'm beyond the huge black granny pants stage now, but I find my normal knickers (low-rise shorts/hipsters) are still low enough to irritate the scar area.

Can anyone recommend something 'nice' which will sit inbetween? I'm normally an M&S girl, but they're not really coming up trumps here.

Am not against big knickers per se, but pulling on the ol' big black Full Briefs everyday is making me feel a bit shit, as stupid as that sounds.

It will get better, but in the meantime I like m&s midis which are a bit lower, still not super sexy though.

If you like shorts you can find some that aren't 'low rise' and so come up further like these from tesco which are so comfy, but (I think) look bit more sporty and less frumpy than full briefs.

Uniqlo ones are lovely cotton and the hip hungers come up a bit higher without being frumpy.

Brilliant, thank you. The Tescos ones look perfect, and I hadn't even thought of Uniqlo for undies, so will have a look there this afternoon.
