postpartum pads

New mother supplies

Postpartum pads are thick, absorbent sanitary pads designed for the heavy bleeding that follows childbirth.

They're larger and more absorbent than regular menstrual pads, often extending further front to back.

Hospitals typically provide them immediately after delivery, and new mothers use them for several weeks as bleeding gradually diminishes.
