WAY more absorbent than the ones they give you in the hospital
Instant Ice Maxi Pads – Frida | The fuss stops here.
I genuinely wish I got two, I would waddle back to the sink to refill it!
Upside Down Peri Bottle – Frida | The fuss stops here.
Versatile fit, snug but not too snug, and they’re pretty soft and comfortable. I mostly just used these the first week!
Boyshort Disposable Postpartum Underwear (8 Pack) - Frida
Thissssss 👏👏👏 I don’t know what sorcery they put in this stuff but it feels AMAZING! When my stitches were starting to heal they felt very dry and there was uncomfortable tugging. This helped SO MUCH!
Witch Hazel Perineal Healing Foam - Postpartum Recovery Care - Frida
“Line your pads with these like turkey on a subway sandwich” - my postpartum nurse
TUCKS Medicated Cooling Pads, 100 Count
Postpartum clothes that won’t feel horrendous
Your body is changing so fast right after birth… you need light, comfortable, and stretchy!
The waistband on these is super soft and doesn’t dig in. As soon as I got out of disposables I started using these! Great if you had a c-section too, not too tight on your tummy
Postpartum Underwear
My going home outfit! This set is super stretchy and cozy, I even wore it while pregnant. It’s very high waisted so it’s great if you had a c-section too
PRETTYGARDEN Women's Two Piece Matching Lounge Sets Asymmetrical ...
I immediately bl🩸d on my first pair of pjs after giving birth. You’ll want something comfortable but cheap in case you want to toss them rather than deal with a mess! These were my favorite
Joyspun Pajamas & Loungewear
First real clothing I put on after having a baby and they’re so light and soft 🥰
Everyday Lounge Jogger | Black
Make yourself comfortable!
Little things that will make it a little bit easier
If you tear during birth this will make things a lot more comfortable for the first week or two! Honestly I wish I brought one to the hospital
Donut Cushion
Something about matching pjs, a soft robe, and THESE specific slippers made me feel like I was just having a cozy weekend rather than recovering from a major physical ordeal 😅🥰
