3rd Trimester

are you still wearing thongs?

A friend of mine that recently gave birth said that she had to go buy "granny panties" for post partum.  I asked why and she said because she has to wear a pad all day every day...  I asked why she couldn't wear a pad with her regular underwear (thinking maybe post partum pads are huge and require ginormous granny bloomers??) And she said no, you can't wear a pad with a thong!  Apparently she made it all 9 months wearing thongs.  WOW!

Personally, I have been in more comfy cotton undies most days and have to wear liners all the time anyway.  I wouldn't say they are granny panties, but lets just say they are nothing my hubby would pick out for me  LOL   I only wear thongs when I have to wear a fitted dress or dress pants, and that hasn't happened for weeks!

What are your undies looking like these days?

  • The thongs ended right around the time that the hemorrhoids showed up (around 19 weeks or so, I think).

  • I'm all about comfort, I gave those up a while back.  I'm already in pain here and there don't need to make it more complicated. Granny panties are my friend. In time I'll go back but for now...ahhhh lol

    I've never like thongs - just uncomfortable.  I can't imagine wearing them with my 'roids.

  • I'm still wearing my VS cotton thongs! I still love them! I do have a few (like 6pair) of low rise bikini underwear that I wear sometimes. Those are the ones I'll wear after.
  • I retired the thongs at about 20 wks too.  I'm just too sweaty, moist, etc down there, plus wearing a pantyliner 24-7 is much easier in bikini underwear.

    I wore them right up to the end, and only wore the "granny panties" for 3 weeks PP!  On a regular basis I'd say I do about 80% thong/ 20% string bikini cut.

  • I've been doing boy shorts or bikinis almost the entire pregnancy.  I don't think I'll switch back after baby is here.
  • Ugh, I haven't worn thongs since the 90's!

    I wear my seamless briefs, and sometimes to bed I wear my giant comfy cotton Costco undies - love them!  They are literally falling apart at the seams - sexy.

  • Oh hells no. Thongs = incurable wedgie. I'll pass on that.

  • I wear thongs every day, and they aren't uncomfortable at all to me.
  • I despise most thongs, but LOVE my Hanky Panky brand thongs. They are the most comfortable underwear I own, seriously! Even pregnant (and i bought maternity briefs too). So, yes, I am still wearing them. Not every day... but most days.

  • I still wear thongs most days, although I have found myself choosing the "fuller" type instead of the teeny basically only string ones I used to wear. I did however give in and buy 2 pair of very stretchy boy shorts and find them harder and harder to pass up when I see them in the drawer lol!

    Agreed. 

    Maternity undies and panty liners have been my best friends since the start of the 2nd tri..

  • I put the thongs on the back burner several weeks ago! I've even wore DH's boxer briefs to bed.  I'm sure he doesn't think it's sexy, but they are really comfy!
  • I am still wearing all my pre pregnancy thongs. I do take them off as soon as I get home and go commando with sweats. I have some granny panties in my closet so those will come out when needed.

  • I'm 32w3d and I wear comfy cotton low rise thongs from Old Navy (and thong panty liners lately) to work because I have yet to find underwear that do not give me panty lines in work pants.  I've never found them uncomfortable.  When I'm home in comfy clothes or wearing jeans, I'm in regular underwear.  Though that's more because I change after work into comfy clothes and at bed I take the clothes off and just wear underwear and a sports or sleep bra to sleep.

    I've been wearing thongs but I had to size up because of the incurable wedgie feeling.  I still wear them and they are comfy but I sleep in granny panties!

  • i'm still in thongs with most of my work pants.  at home/on the weekends no way, but that was pre-pregnancy as well.

  • Still sportin' my thongs! Now that I think of it, I can't even remember the last time I've worn full undies!

    Ditto this.  Hanky Panky thongs are even more comfortable than the Hanky Panky bikini undies.  I love them and wish they were not so expensive.

  • I don't even like thongs prepregnancy...only wore them for DHs sake or depending on certain outfits. I like cheek coverage, thank you Smile

  • I still wear my pre-pg low-rise VS thongs most days with no problem. This post reminds me that I need buy some regular underwear and pads next time I go to Target.

  • All I own is thongs (even all my workout underwear are thongs).  They are still comfortable for me and think they will be for the long haul.

    I haven't worn non-thong underwear since highschool, so that will definietly be an adjustment for me when they are needed.

  • Some days I wear my booty shorts but on other days I just go commando (well obviously not if I'm wearing a dress or a skirt lol).  It depends on how bad my back is killing me that particular day and whether or not I feel like bending over and hobbling around more than once lol

  • I wore thongs until about 20 weeks...with DS. I haven't ever been able to go back. Before my first pregnancy I wore thongs all the time. Even after he was born, I just couldn't get back into them. They were never comfortable again.

  • I barely wore thongs pre preg. So I haven't to touched them for a while. i think thongs are kinda gross and very uncomfortable.
  • I just bought some new thongs at Target...lacy Gilligan & O'Malley (?) brand for $4 a thong in a larger size...and they are SUPER comfy, leave NO panty lines when i wear my leggings & don't make me feel like a sausage like my old undies had been doing by cutting into my bigger booty/thighs.
