Underwear recommendations pls help!

Hi all!

Hoping someone has some recommendations for underwear post c section!

I had my little boy 7 months ago and my old underwear is so uncomfortable!
My knickers sit too low and irritate my c section scar and although I'm back to my pre pregnancy size I've stjll got a little c section shelf so my underwear rolls down and sit on my scar.

Does anyone have any recommendations for high risk knickers that are maybe a Brazilian style or a bit prettier than big knickers?

Also any recommendations for bralets that are breast feeding friendly?

Thanks Smile

Oh bless you! But some really big pants on the 342 offer at M&S. they also have bralets that could stretch down for breastfeeding although their proper feeding bras are good too

OP, l feel for you, wanting the comfort of old but not feeling quite ready for graduation to full Bridget status; l very much doubt if l ever will.

M&S have high rise brazillians in their “Eyelash” range which might be worth a look.

Alternativly, they have several pairs of French knickers at the moment. The silk ones are not cheap, but they are lovely, and mine have been through the washing machine lots of times. I think the label says hand wash, but never mind. Life's too short. They also have some Autograph French knickers in the sale. You might want to consider these. Not a good option though, under most trousers or if you wear knickers with tights. But summer is round the corner.

Other possibilities are high rise thongs, if you are/were a thong wearer (size up).

Finally you might want to try waist high, sheer or stretch lace knix. Try La Senza or Boux Avenue.

Maybe go for big knickers but in a pretty fabric while your c section scar still rubs
