For postpartum support, do you use a pad when wearing these disposable underwear? Thanks.

I don't use them. I have seen them. I bought these for my Mom. I would say NO, they are like a huge pad.

No, these are absorbent enough on their own. You should not need to add an additional pad. If you add a pad that is waterproof on the bottom (as most stick on pads are) you will prevent the fluid from reaching the diaper. So if you must add an extra pad, make sure it is the type that is not plastic-lined on the bottom.

I use the waterproof changing pad liners in mine. They fit perfectly and I can take them out easily to was when needed. I use the Boppy brand because the Graco ones aren't waterproof.

I have been using these for a while and at first they are pretty much water resistant, but after many many washes they eventually do wear out and become not 100% water resistant and if your baby's diaper leaks it could leak through the pad, then it's time for a new pad (or at least that's how I did it). But I do want to mention, they last for while, so it's worth it to buy. And I personally like that they are covered with cozy and comfy cotton flannel and not some synthetic fibers that start looking if you used them for 10 years after the very first wash!!!

We use it as just a guard. It's pretty thin, but we have a big memory foam mattress, so there is no need for a pad. I personally would use it as a pad.

These liners are actually quite smaller than standard changing pads. I think they are designed to fit in the contour/dip only. They work perfectly for protecting the part where your baby lies.

Not at all. I do have a standard mattress pad on it though. Nothing special just to protect the mattress. Very comfortable.

These pads are very absorbant dont leak the sheet, but I recommend in case of accident change this in the lesser time posible, depend of the quantity, Occasionally my mam has an accident in the afternoon, but I change in two hours, no more. I don´t have experience in more time, because at night use diaper and pad

These are actually meant for use with cloth diapers. I only have experience with use over underwear for potty training, but I can imagine that with a thicker cloth diaper these would work well.

I think the Sofnit 300 Washable Underpads should stay the size they are. They work fine for my wife that is in a hospital bed at home.

Yes, quite well! With cotton pre-folds, I sometimes find that my son's skin is wet when I change his diaper. These leave his skin feeling as dry as it would be in a disposable!

I actually use these under the pee pads for extra protection. They wash up very nicely and I usually just dry mine for a short time then air dry. I have had mine for a couple of years now and I highly recommend them. Great product.

Yes, you should wear underwear with them. I wear thongs or small panties for protection...you dont have to but i recommend wearing something rather than nothing.

I actually use these for light stress incontinence since I am post menopausal. I keep them in a zippered net lingerie bag which I throw in the washing machine with my light colored laundry but I air dry them rather than use the dryer since I wasn't sure if they would shrink or not. I have seen suggestions on keeping a covered container of soapy water in the bathroom to hold them until you do your laundry, but I haven't done that since mine don't get very soiled. I can't answer your question about whether 3 will last for a heavy period day.

They're "regular" sized- if you need them longer you need to go to post-partum pads.

You do not. You use one pad while they are small and don't roll around everywhere. Once they start moving you will use both. My son is 6 weeks and still in bassinet and we use one right in the middle where we lay him. I love this product. It helps me relax and sleep better knowing I have it.

I never had that problem. but I put a pad in them and throw them away. you have to change them often though or they will get infection , like you have to keep a baby dry

No, this would be your crib sheet. I will say, I tried these, but found that ZipSheets (www.ZipSheets.com) are MUCH better, since they are velcro (quicker and quieter), and WATERPROOF so you don't need an extra waterproof pad (so the cost is actually cheaper). I have had mine for 5 years now, through infancy and potty training and sweaty nights and travelling, and they are the BEST. If you email her, she might give you a discount--they have excellent customer service. :)
