Peri bottle! If you buy one thing, buy a peri bottle! Makes cleaning down below and toileting so much more bearable especially with stitches x

Peri bottle & “spritz for your bits”

Thank you so much. Anything that will help that soreness would be great x

i’m just buying a peri bottle from shein they’re about £2. if i’m really not coping after i’ll probably order spritz for bits, but stuff like that can be so expensive i just can’t justify it personally x

Defos a peri bottle and make sure you bring it with you to the hospital x

I’ve got some ‘cold pads’. They’re maternity pads that you bend in half and they become a cold pack to numb your sore bits 🙈

Spritz for bits, the Tena pull up pants, nipple cream! Already using the spritz 😍
