I haven't had to wear a maxi pad for at least 15 years. I feel like it looks as if I have a load in my pants. I'm not happy about this, but oh well.
Just wanted to share.

I feel ya every month. I cant wear tampons and AF is enough of a b!tch that I get to wear the California King sized mattresses. You know the Always super ultra overnight kind? The ones so huge and thick they fold 4 times? Yeah I rock those for about 3 days before it slows down.

That just stinks! I love the way you phrase it as a "load in your pants" I got a really great imagine in my head! lol Made my giggle on the inside. Hopefully things will die down soon so you wont have to wear the "load anymore."

I HATE HATE HATE that the sticky side keeps undoing itself from the undies and getting stuck to my butt.

That sucks so hard. I'm sorry. I know, I hated it when I was going through my m/c. I very rarely wear pads, only in the evenings when I'm at home, shortly before bed. I despise pads. Hopefully your bleeding dies down soon and you can at least switch to liners. *hugs*

I agree with Petra, if you have to wear a pad, Always Infinity is the best you will find. I cannot stand pads. I hope your bleeding subsides soon so that you don't have to deal with pads anymore.

Our little pumpkin is here!! Dominick William arrived 2 weeks early on September 30, 2012! 8 lbs 2 oz and 20 inches. For you I've waited all these years.
Ugh, I wish I saw the answers before I bought them! I got cheapo RiteAid brand. They are thin, but damn they are long. And these wing things, not staying put. Bleh, whatevs.

Yeah, generic store pads suck. I had Always, but bought Walgreens to save some $$ about half way through the bleeding process. Always are SO much more awesome, comfy, and the wings stay put so much better. I'd say go ahead and grab a pack of Always and just save the generics for a rainy day.

I had to wear one for so long after my D&C that I think I got a type of like diaper rash or something. It was MISERABLE!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL! Funny cause its true!
I hate pads too! Especially being forced to wear them because of the m/c. I feel your pain! I agree with PP...go with Always Infinity.
