A good postpartum option!

For a postpartum mama, immediately following birth, I think these are a great option that is a step above the hospital undies with the giant postpartum pad. Very recently I had my youngest child, and when I sent my husband to the store looking for something exactly like this, it didn't exist! My onl...y choices were to get adult depends!! …which wasn't exactly my vibe, lol! Had these been in store that day, these would have been exactly what I wanted and needed. The concept of having the pad already attached to the undies is ideal, especially because postpartum pads just never stay in place no matter what you do. With this product, the extra little design in the front is a cute addition, perhaps to make you feel a little less like a grown adult in a diaper, standing next to your newborn… also wearing a diaper. **insert comedic relief laughter here** But I think that design should have continued around the back as well. These are also very high waisted, which is ideal postpartum as you just really need that little tummy hug. The inside edge near the pad is also gusseted, I know from years of cloth diapering my babes, that gussets help stop leaks before they destroy clothes, so that's a nice extra touch for anyone needing heavier protection. The fabric is a little bit soft, as promised, but I think it's a reach to call it "fabric like" in any way. It feels like a diaper…. Not fabric. It's also scented…. Heavily. Which is not what I'm personally looking for, but I could understand someone with incontinence desiring that detail. But for me personally, I prefer unscented completely, or at minimum naturally scented since it's literally touching a very porous, sensitive, area of the body. The packaging has a nice rip top, that can stay like a flap, so you can easily reach in to grab another and then keep the rest well stored and tidy. Most products in the category just rip open and stay open, so that was a thoughtful addition. I was also skeptical that the product would truly fit the size range it states, but sure enough it does fit from the small size, to the medium range, and I think that description is accurate. It's also not going to be very breathable, and you will sweat behind the synthetic plastic like material, only a natural fabric would breathe. Overall this is a good product, that I would personally purchase tomorrow for postpartum use. But ideally, in my perfect dream land world, I would rather a clean and chemical free version of this product personally. And that kind of product would be what I would give 5 stars. So whilst this product is still good, and useful, and I would indeed buy it, it's just good enough. Not great.
