As my belly is growing, my regular underwear feels uncomfortable. What kind of underwear is best to wear during pregnancy, and are there any specific ways to wear them for comfort and support?
I felt so conscious about my changing body and normal panties started hurting my waist. When I switched to high-waist maternity cotton ones, I felt so much more secure and cradled. It’s a small change but it made me feel so much better.
Comfort is key during these months. I found that wearing soft, high-waisted cotton panties that go over the bump was so comfortable, especially as the belly grew. Avoid anything tight or synthetic because pregnancy skin gets very sensitive.
Arey, my MIL strictly told me not to wear anything tight around the waist during pregnancy. I shifted to very loose maternity cotton panties. Honestly, her advice was great because tight elastics can be so annoying and leave marks.
Suti (cotton) kapde ke hi underwear pehnna sabse accha hota hai beta. tight bilkul mat pehno, thoda dhila aur bada size le lo market se. Comfort sabse bada hai is time pe.
Look, there is no hard rule, but always go for a size bigger than your usual. You can choose under-the-bump styles if over-the-bump feels too tight on your belly. Just ensure it's breathable cotton so you stay comfortable throughout the day.
Please make sure you only wear 100% loose cotton underwear to avoid any infections. After my loss, I became extra careful about hygiene down there because even small infections can cause worry. Keep it clean and dry, comfort is most important.
I just delivered last month and trust me, comfortable underwear is a lifesaver. Buy those seamless maternity ones that stretch easily. They don't press on your lower belly, which is great because that area gets really tender.
