C/S Underwear

[Jakabella]

I used the BIG grannie undies! I didnt have a pad or any dressings on my CS scar after the second day just butterfly tape and I just found that the granny undies wen right up to my belly button and just held everything in and tight and just felt better. Even now I dont like wearing low undies as I find the sit right on my scar and irritate me... so I wear granny undies all the time now! hehehe so attractive!

The big girdle type undies are also good as they hold you in and help support your core as well as hold the pad and gauze etc in the right spot. Target sell cheap versions.

I bought a 5 pack of granny undies from target for bag as i figured they would be comfy for wearing big pads and for support no matter what sort of birth i had, in end i had a cs and these were great as no pressure near wound. I think was $10 for 5 pack

I also got the really huge granny undies. But I got them 1-2 sizes bigger then normal so they wernt too tight. Once my tummy shrunk back to normal size (plus the pg kgs) I couldn't wear them anymore as they fell down
I think I got mine from best and less (can't quite remember its been awhile)

I just wore my normal undies with a 'bellyband' to hold a pad in place over the c/s scar, and I tucked the bellyband into the top of my undies to stop the undies rubbing.

I used the granny undies too, but also had an elastic tube thingy that the hospital gave me to help repair my tummy muscles- pretty much like a belly band. Felt nice and comfortable and held together.
