What Items Will i need for myself after birth?

As fun as it is to buy cute outfits for baby, it is vital for you to have some practical things on hand for YOURSELF in the postpartum time! Now this ranges from things that literally everyone needs - like a plan to handle bleeding - to things that might make your postpartum time more lovely. Today we’re tackling the practical side of things. What types of essentials do you need for the postpartum period.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• Everyone needs the following:
  • Pads or Adult diapers or some combo of Postpartum Underwear and Reusable Pads
  • High-waisted undies in about 1 size bigger than usual
  • Peribottle - I like Frida Mom
  • Witch Hazel pads
  • Numbing Spray
  • Nipple Butter
  • Nipple Hydrogel Pads
  • Pads for leaking milk - Bamboobies is my favorite brand
• Treat yourself to some cozy pajamas or easy bras or lovely robes!
