Ive ordered some materinty pads online from Chemist Warehouse.
I had ordered 4 packs of stayfree, 1 pack of libra, 2 packs of kotex (all maternity kind)
But the stayfree were out of stock, so i was just sent the libra and kotex pads.

I was wondering, is there a difference between libra goodnights and libra maternity? Because i have a pack or 2 of them (goodnights) from when we were trying, and can just use them instead of buying more again (Long story short i havnt got my whole order once from them so im a bit dissapointed)..

If there is a difference ill probably just go buy some stayfrees in town again!?

Thanks pinkglitter.

Do you need that many? I found that one packet of maternity ones was sufficient (can't remember how many were in the packet but I had 2 or 3 left over) for the days after bubs was born and then switched to regular pads until the bleeding etc stopped.

I agree with the above post that it sounds like a lot of maternity pads. I am currently pregnant with baby #3, and for my first two just had 2 packets of maternity pads, then switched to regular pads (Libra I think from memory). Bleeding does vary a bit, some woman have more / heavier than others, but I tend to think that 2 or 3 packs of maternity is enough, or maybe 2 x maternity and 2 x overnight or Super pads, something like that. Then have at least one pack of regular at home for later.
