Maternity pads

When can I use normal pads? I'm almost 3 weeks PP, and my bleeding has been decreasing steadily and is now less than my normal period. I'm only losing minimal discharge, and I don't want to buy more maternity pads if it's okay to just use normal sanitary pads.

Whenever you think they’ll cope with your flow it’s fine to switch 😊

Yes it's fine.

Whenever you feel you want to! No one can tell you what you can and can’t do 😅 But as it’s lightened a lot a normal sanitary towel will work fine!

@Sophie It will definitely cope with the flow, I just wasn't sure if I was supposed to wait a certain amount of time 😊

@Lottie I definitely want to, I just want to make sure there isn't a certain amount of time I need to wait first 😊

@Charly no, not at all 😊

@Charly nooo definitely not. Nothing like that is a ‘must’.
