Maternity pads

[Loobyloo1902]

If I may, could I call on the experience of any mums to suggest a really good brand of maternity pad to stock up on? I'm kind of thinking I'd prefer to to do the trial and error method so all advice welcomed please!

Thanks in advance

Can't believe no-one's mentioned natracare maternity pads... These were an absolute godsend for my, um, rather tender parts after having my DD. I did try some of the other branded maternity pads but these are made from all natural stuff so no danger of irritating or itching and allows you to 'breathe' as it were! Also, I ended up using my hubbies boxers as I found them alot more comfy, especially with the added bulk of the pad.

Whilst on the subject of pads, I'd also recommend lansinoh breastpads if you're thinking about breastfeeding. It took me a few weeks to discover them but I was so glad when I did as it meant I no longer felt like I had soggy bits of tissue shoved down my bra (sorry, TMI?)...

I used Boots own and bought a couple of packs of cheap cotton knickers from Primark.
