Primark do some high waisted briefs that I wore after my c section, they were so comfortable over my scar and they only give a hint of Bridget Jones 😂

I love my big knickers. I can wear little ones but they always naturally roll down to where the scar sits and irritate it

I love the odd balls ladies underwear. I regularly wear the ladies boxers as shorts when im just in the house 😂

Asda full briefs. They're so comfy! And they have lace trim ones, flower patterns, etc.
I'm 5 weeks post c section, and I've just ordered myself loads. Also wore them after my first section 5 years ago.

I just sized up and bought regular high waisted ones from M&S

I wore undies from Sainsbury’s - high waisted but satin feel and a bit of lace so they don’t feel fully frumpy, just slightly 🤣

issues with c section for a YEAR?

dont read if your about to have a c section this is a rare occurrence <3 ive had issues with my c section for a year this month now and no one takes me seriously has anyone else dealt with this? warning tmi!! my c section wound got infected due to stiches that didnt need to be removed being removed and scince then it has flared up and gone raw red swollen and leaks a clear/yellow liquid and opens up monthly... i have had antibiotics monthly for a year i have had multiple professionals look at it and tell me its normal and even changes doctors who are now saying lets do an ultrasound but its been a month waiting for it! and now its open ...again! im beyond frustrated infact insainly traumatised and in therapy for it... i cannot wear tight clothes or workout or do too much of anything in fear of it opening up. i have come to the conclusion im going to go a&e tomorrow if my doctors dont take me seriously again. anyone else had a similar issue? sidenote im very hygenic and this is freaking me out due to that how on earth am i supposed to cope🥹
