Advantages: They're disposable!
Disadvantages: Too small and very uncomfortable
I've never tried any other disposable knickers, maybe they're all like it, but tescos disposable maternity knickers must have been designed by a child!! I bought two packs a few weeks before my baby was due, for use while I was in hospital having my baby. Luckily I tried them on before the big day arrived! I'm a size 14 and yes i put on a bit of weight while I was pregnant but not that much and thought size 14 - 16 would be fine. They were a struggle to get over my thighs and when I did, hardly covered my bum!! I presumed I must have put on a lot more weight than I thought I had so reluctantly went out and bought some more, in the biggest size they had, 18 - 20. Got home, tried them on... same problem! It wasn't me, it was the design! The main problem with them is there is almost no difference bewteen the back and the front, so they're baggy around the front and hardly cover your bum at the back. Anyone with half a brain knows a pair of knickers needs more material at the back than the front! I used them anyway and they were useful. I think they're a great idea for the first few days after you have a baby when you're bleeding heavily and don't want to be worrying about doing washing. They were useful but they weren't comfortable and I feel sorry for all those women who may not have realised how small they are and bought their usual size, only to find out in the hospital that they were far too small. If you're buying disposable knickers, buy big!!

- 23/12/00 I'd do what Michellica said - buy cheapo knickers and throw them out afterwards. I've not found a comfortable pair of disposable knickers yet - and I keep trying (I'm on my third child). |

- 28/10/00 I had the boots ones and they were not so bad. I bought my normal size in them and they were fine. Don't be under any illusions I piled on the pounds when pregnant. Maybe they were just a better make. Still not really comfortable though. |
