Granny panties! Heck yeah!

in 3rd Trimester

I bought a package of Fruit of the Loom granny panties (hi-cut briefs) that a small child could probably use as parachutes. They're the unsexiest things I've ever seen, but they are SO DANG COMFORTABLE! No more wedgies or elastic burns or rolling.

Ahhhhhhh. Sweet relief. Six pairs for only $8! I see at least 2 more packs in my very near future. Why didn't I buy these months ago?

    I got some of those too except in the bikini style one size up from my pre-pregnancy size. Love them. My other bikinis were falling down off my ass and the thongs won't work with the 'roid.  (Sorry if that's TMI)
    Edited because I am an English teacher and that's what we do.

    I do low-rise briefs.  can't do the high-waisted thing, it irritates my belly.  But god bless a full back side!!!

    I just bought some for post delivery after my c-section. Hmmm, maybe I should go ahead and break them in??

    LOVE THEM! I have the hi cut and the bikini depending on where the LO is situated in my stomach that day. Not sexy but best feeling ever.

    My theory is as long as they have cute designs/colors they are NOT granny panties :)

    How far up do the granny panties go?

    I bought some maternity panties last pregnancy, thought they were meh, then with this pregnancy (and subsequent c-section incision) I thought they were awesome - no elastic gripping near that spot, but not yet another layer of fabric inching up towards my bellybutton, lol.

    You most definitely should. They will change your life. (And possibly your sex life too, but who are we kidding? Is there much of a sex life at this stage of pregnancy? lol)

    Last pregnancy I held out with my thongs until PP when I was using the pads, but (sadly for hubs) I haven't gone back. I get low rise hipsters, I can't do anything above my hips. I only wear thongs if I'm in yoga pants or something where I want to avoid a panty line, but I have to change into my full coverage ones for at home and bed. You just can't argue with the comfort.

    I bought the motherhood panties, the ones that roll down but i always wear them high up. They are pretty damn comfy too although expensive. I dont know if i could do the fruit of the looms, think the elastic waist would cut in?? no??

    These are the ones I have.  From a second-timer with a c-section incision to consider - they are perfect.  I don't want elastic near my incision, and I don't want them to be so high that they're indenting my belly.

    I got 2 six packs at Target for 4.99 on sale. :) I was so excited and one of the packs had a bonus one. Too bad I couldn't find another pack like that with diff designs. I didn't want to have 2 pairs of the same. lol But their for after baby is born my regular undies are good to me still. :)
