This mama was bed-ridden because of stitches... these are the items I used the most this first go-around!
Cannot even tell you how good these feel when you're so sore!
Tucke Cooling Pads
Couldn't live without them 👏🏻
Perineal Ice Packs
Literally just get the big box... you will use all of them...
Always Discreet Incontinence Underwear
It might seem gross, but you might want to check on how your stitches are looking... I had never had stitches before, so I obsessed with making sure I stayed clean so they could heal up!
Folding Mirror
I used this for probably the first 6 weeks... even after the bleeding stopped, my stitches were still so itchy, but this helped so much!
Dermoplast Pain, Burn & Itch Relief Spray
Get like 4 of these... I kept 1 in each bathroom and then filled up 2-3 for each shower... LIFE changing!!!
Frida Mom Upside Down Peri Bottle
TMI... Apparently, stitches are supposed to air-dry and stay as dry and clean as possible, so this was super helpful post-shower to make sure everything was dry to heal as quickly as possible!
AMACOOL Battery Operated Stroller Fan
I love these because of the minty essential oils that make them more pleasant to take AND AND AND, they have Omega-3s and Choline to help with lactation support. I take them 👌🏻DAILY👌🏻
Ritual Postpartum Essentials Multivitamin
Invest in some new PJ's that are specifically for when you get home! It's just a small way to take care of yourself while you are navigating life with a new baby and you don't have as much time 🤍
Ekouaer Women's Short Sleeve Pajama Set
Don't get me wrong... I robbed that hospital room, but I still ran out of things!!! Those XL pads for the first several days are a MUST!
XL Super-Absorbent Hospital Pad Liners 40ct
Switched to these when I graduated from diapers to panty liners🙌🏻
Molasus Women's Cotton Underwear High Waisted Full Coverage ...
Pads WITH wings after I made the transition out of the always diapers. But any brand will work!
