I took extras of their sexy mesh undies, pad sickles, pads, they gave me tucks pads and some soothie nip pads. I would highly recommend lots of those soothie pads if you are BF. They provided sweet relief when DD did some damage in those first couple weeks. Definitely get some stool softener. I took it for about two weeks PP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-supplies#post-1589374 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 13:03:06 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1589374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tucks pads, witch hazel, giant pads, a straw cup/water bottle, ibuprofen, squirt bottle, nursing pads and stool softeners.

Both were absolute life savers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-supplies#post-1589353 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 12:58:37 +0000 matador84 1589353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hydrocortisone, tucks pads, overnight pads, dermaplast, ibuprofen, colace.</p> <p>pretty much everything i had on hand from ds, i went through my stash from hospital pretty quickly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-supplies#post-1589341 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 12:57:18 +0000 Aandmklover 1589341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What did you need, use or have to go the store for after LO arrived?</p> <p>For DS I didn't even think about recovery beforehand so I had to send DH for pads (giant ones) and stool softeners when we got home. </p>
