Post birth essentials.

Hello! Sorry I bet this has been posted so much but wondering what people recommend for recovery after vaginal birth? I’ve just decided on a vaginal birth so my list is very limited! I’ve got my massive tent knickers Peri bottle I’ve seen pre made pads with a gel or lotion in the freezer before but can’t think what these are!?

I used the Spritz for bitz spray, just sprayed that on the pad so it makes it cool and then it also helps with the healing process too xx

For my hospital bag ( first time mum to be) and after watching a punch of videos I got - always disposable pants ( were cheaper than the Frida mom ones) - big maternity pads - big pants - peri bottle - which hazel foam x

Tesco disposable pants Lil lets maternity pads Lansinoh breast pads if breast feeding and their nipple cream Spritz for bits They were my go tos. Also reeeeally soft thick toilet paper helped when I had my episiotomy, the thinner stuff just got everywhere 🙈

I’ve found lil lets maternity pads the best previously. I also like to put puppy pads on the sofa/bed where I’m sitting just incase there’s a leak for the first week or two until the flow calms down. The only thing I needed last time that was unexpected was hemeroid cream but my hospital did give me it anyway when I asked. Xx
