    Not entirely sure but I think they go up to extra large and I think I can remember seeing up to over 96kg.
    Mind you this is coming from my pregnancy brain memory so lordy knows what I'm telling you. LOL!!!
    Plus they are super stretchy too.

    I got the normal ones. Don't forget that you can also buy them at the chemist as well.

    The normal ones were really good for me even overnight and when I got a few hours of sleep in a block. I also used the normal ones when my waters broke but I only had little gushs but my SIL was gushing out and the normal ones held everything for her during her labour too. So I will buy the normal ones again next time.

    Lol I'd heard about using depend, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Childish I know. I would be more inclined to use them the second time around, but i didn't have too much trouble with my loss.
