Post partum CSP question

Postby Bobble Boy's Mum » Thu Jan 13, 2011 10:25 pm

I am thinkign ahead here...

How many pads do you need for after birth on average?

It will be a hospital birth (hopefully a csection) and if it I get my csection I can't see me being in for more than 48 hrs at most and if it's a natural delivery I'll be kicked out a few hours after birth so it's really a case of how many pads will I need for say 3 poss 4 days use to give me enough for a 2 day hospital stay and then enough to use whilst I wash and dry those ones when I get home

I used sposies first time round and I got through 8-10 a day for the first few days. Cloth pads will prob last longer though so I'm packing 6-8 per day.

I'm about to have my third section in the next couple if weeks and I have 11 specific postpartum pads and then I also have about 35 heavy pads (all 12-14" and for heavy flow) so I plan on putting all 11 pp ones and then 15 of the heavy ones in...hubby can always bring more if I need them...
