dh and I have nearly wet ourselves laughing ...OMG I am so huge!!

[helsi]

I went to the local market yesterday to buy my cheap nighties and knickers etc for my hospital bag and bought a big nightie for before the c-section and a smaller(ish) one for after. I also asked the lady for some quite big but cheap knickers that I could use to put in the pads etc and ones that would also pull over my scar etc after the operation.

Anyway, I ended up buyng some that were size....ready for it..........50/52 and they are really big.

I took them home and we both laughed our heads off at the fact that they will be far too big and will probably fall down around my ankles. he offered to go and exchange them for me some smaller ones.

Anyway this morning I thought I would make him laugh even more by putting a pair on and parading for him in my passion killer knickers.

I am devasted.........THEY FIT.........and if I do say so myself REALLY confortable.

:)

I remember thinking - big pants no way when I was pregnant and then to have a c-section.... sent dh out to buy big pants - and they were BIG!! like you I was devastated they fitted..... but in the post c-section days comfort was sooo important.

don't - when you have that tender scar and trying to get going after the op comfy bloomers are the best

I was devastated to part with my big knickers last time

(shhhhh)I still wear mine on occassion

ROFPMSL

yes I still have a couple of pairs in my knicker drawer too

I sent DH out about 3 times for big knickers, he kept coming back with normal ones that aren't quite big enough.

Its a bit like nice ham, you have to be specific so i told him to go to the granny shop and get the ones that go right up to your armpits. I think they were about 50/52 as well. Loved them, nothing worse than a hipsters g-string rubbing on your scar .

Hilarious!! But aren't they all baggy around your thighs?

pmsl

size 50?

there is a size 50?

Blimey,do clothes really come that big??
Skribble,your bloke is more sussed than my friend's dh.
She went into labour unexpectedly and when her dh brought her stuff into hospital,he had packed her some g strings and panty liners.

You can make them into a hammock for the baby when it's born

They double up as a contraceptive device after the birth too.

If you are having a c-section, believe me you will be pleased you've got them. Ordinary pants rest right where your scar is and are sooo uncomfortable. Give in to the embarrassment and go for comfort - you won't regret it!!!
Hope all goes well...

I am going to fix some elastic rope to each side and hang over the door frame as a baby bouncer when I have done with them.

And yes Enid they do do a size 50! thanks for asking and yes they fit me lovely!! And also littlemisspiggy they are not baggy around my thighs so can we change to subject

Or recycle the wire from a coathanger and turn them into a sun cabana for the beach. None of you will get lost with that for a landmark!

No DH is not that sussed, I had already packed pairs of big knickers, which turned out to be too small, so I could say "BIGGER" than these. It took 3 attempts, Oh and No they were not baggy around the thigh in fact this was one place my knickers kept rubbing.

Just one question, why do they make paper knickers . That is one thing that I just don't get. For the price yau can buy knickers for if they get messy just throw them out, FGS why do they expect us to be reduced to wearing paper disposible ones. STITCHES SCARS does this mean anything.
