Frida Mom Disposable Postpartum Underwear (High Waist)
Stretchy single-use briefs that hold big pads in place and sit above a caesarean wound.
MamaLoop mums pick
We researched disposable postpartum underwear because the first days after birth mean heavy bleeding and large maternity pads, and nobody wants to ruin their own undies. These high-waist briefs are soft and stretchy, fit roughly 71 to 107 cm waists in one size, and sit above a caesarean incision. Baby Bunting buyers rate them 4.5 out of 5 from more than two hundred reviews. Trade-offs: they have no absorbency of their own, so you still need pads; one size will not suit everyone; and a few people found the fabric stiff or got a rash. Pack one bag in the hospital bag and see how you go.
