    Default Making post partum pads

    As the title suggests. Does anyone know of a free pattern? I have one on the way, so I might be able to copy that (for personal use only, I don't plan on selling them).

    What is it that's mostly needed for PP. It's only been a year but I completely forget

    TIA for your help ladies

    Well for most ppl they would want the following:

    Super absorbancy so I would go for something like bamboo.

    Extra long

    Nice and cushie - so nice and soft and cushiony on tender bits.

    Super absorbent - bamboo, hemp

    Thanks guys. I was thinking raw silk maybe too. Incase of stitches. Does anyone know where to get some? Is it easy to sew with?

    Thanks EM

    I know where to get raw silk liners but that's probably not what you'd be looking for. The liners I have aren't as soft as the silk topped GB pad I have.





    When are you due?
