the perfect knickers...

So pre baby i used to like the seamfree style knickers - mini or short style, lacy or smooth. Didn't create bulges on the seams and looked pretty.
Problem is since baby I seem to only be able to wear cotton, otherwise after a few hours its a bit whiffy and not pleasant. (Have checked with GP and I don't have a full on infection but apparently my balance of bacteria isn't what it used to be.)
So here's problem - I've bought various cotton multipacks from M&S, supermarkets etc. but they just aren't as nice - they either seem to cause bulges or fall down.
Can anyone recommend nice cotton knickers they've bought that are like a seamfree style and/or flattering?
thanks

Have you tried the M&S seam free no VPL full briefs? I think that's what they're called in a pack of 4/5 I've just discovered them during my pregnancy and finding them greatSmile

sloggi's but they are expensive

As well as the pants, you might want to try addressing the issue with some of these: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Balance-Activ-BV-Vaginal-Pessaries-7/321749224519?_trksid=p2141725.c100338.m3726&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20141212152715%26meid%3D68c2876ba2924a2984749de80289854f%26pid%3D100338%26rk%3D8%26rkt%3D27%26sd%3D161600860182

You can use one a week for 'maintenance', very useful if you have an IUD or something else that can throw your vaginal PH out of whack.

Thank you - i knew there would be an answer on mumsnet! I like the look of the Italian ones - not cheap but maybe worth an experiment! But do I go there after trying the m&s/John lewis/sloggi options... decisions!

I second the sloggi option, very comfortable, but not that glam sadly, Smile
