Maternity pads vs Period underwear

Personally I’d even try the maternity pad in the period undies, I haven’t had a baby yet but I plan on doing this!

I haven't used disposable sanitary products for years, modibodi have been great! I did buy some modibodi overnight/heavy flow and hoping they do the trick once babies are born but have disposable maternity pads and incontinence underwear for the hospital. I'm having babies tomorrow so will test and try and remember to give you an update.

I've used period undies for years too, and also have light periods. I have packed them in my hospital bag, but the issue is they are kind of tight now. I ended up buying 2 more pairs of big heavy flow high wasted ones. I have some pads just in case they do not suffice. I would also rather not use disposables.
I've also got cloth nappies all ready for baby!!

I've used period undies and cup for like 5 years previously but I've decided to go buy disposable maternity pads and underwear just because it'll be only a short period of time where I'm using these and also I've heard post birth bleeding is SUPER heavy and with life will be soooo chaotic after baby I feel that I don't want to worry about if I'm leaking/ need to wash my underwear

I used modibodi undies pre baby. But postpartum bleeding was a bit much for them I thought. I used one pack of Depends for first few days in hospital then maybe a week of maternity pads then switched to my modibodis for the next few weeks. Totally understand- I’m a cloth nappy mum too! My daughter is 2yr3m and I’ve only ever bought 3 packs of disposable nappies in her life!

postpartum underwear (or buy the incontinance underwear from coles)

easy and I found better than pads.

I was recommended the pads (I hate pads with a passion) because the type of blood is thicker and gross and you'll have to change the pad/undies a lot.

The proof underwear is excellent for postpartum flow and aswell as periods!
