Postpardum Pads

marsh1128 · January 2013

With DD, I used Always pads and found that because I had to wear them for a while, I got "itchy" and very irritated (it would keep me up at night it was so bad). I remember reading a post or two that mentioned less irritating brands to use and I thought Kotex was one of them so that is what I have on hand. Which pads did you use and were they comfortable (relatively speaking of course).

TIA!

I used Stayfree overnight brand when I came home from the hospital, but I used the always maxi overnights when I was at the hospital.

I alternated between Always Infinity and Kotex. The K were more comfortable and less irritating, but the AI absorbed better.

Same here.

Up&up and now I'm using Kotex in the black box.

I used the Teva pads for the first few days coming home from the hospital. Then I switched over to Kotex.

Whatever you get make sure it has wings... I hate when they get crunched up on the sides!

Lurking..

With DS I just used the Always Infinity with no issues. After reading this I think I'll also pick up a box of Kotex to try. I'm normally not a pad wearer so I'm pretty clueless!
