Post c-section undies

How long after your c-section did you wear high waisted undies for? I want to get back to wearing g-strings but worried about them rubbing on my scar I’m 7 weeks pp

Still wearing high waisted ones, 9 weeks pp. Just so much more comfortable for me that it's worth it for now.

I’m nearly 6 weeks pp and I’ve just gone back to my regular underwear I did try at 3 weeks pp but would be too uncomfortable if they rolled down and sat on the scar

Only until I stopped bleeding and had to wear pads! I wear thongs and just got some that are a super thin material with no seam at the top. Doesn’t rub the scar at all

I went back to my old knickers after about 6-8 weeks, basically when I fit back in them. Depends where your scar is though. Mine is very low, way lower than my hemline of knickers and clothes so I never was irritated by my underwear.

Still wearing 7 weeks pp

As long as it doesn't rub on your scar I'd say it's fine

They're so comfy so still wearing them! Lol 😆

I never went back to my old knickers after my first C-section 9 years ago as it’s still numb and feels weird if anything touched it, now I’ve had 2 csections and have 3 scars. I still can’t wear low underwear 😩

@Sarah this was like me after my first C-section but I was still numb so everything felt weird. My second C-section they had to do a new scar as my old was too low to go back in through 😩

I stopped at 7 weeks pp. Seemed to be long enough for me, i think it just comes down to how well and how quickly you heal x

A good 6 weeks. Mainly to hold the maternity pads in place for the bleeding and comfort

I’m almost 14 months PP and I still wear mine 🤣🤣

I never went back. They just irritated my scar no matter how healed it was
