Meh
These are just short, thin pads. Nothing really special. Probably not what you’d expect from a postpartum pad. Look at the mom frida pads instead.

Not for postpartum, THIN
These are worse than normal period pads. No flaps, not very sticky, thin. For postpartum you need something bigger, thicker. Very disappointed. Always leaks.

We understand that everyone's body is unique, so we have many quality checks to ensure you get the best and have developed a wide range of products designed to fit different body types, and preferences.

For a product that is supposed to be postpartum I was expecting it to be a little larger in size for coverage.

NOT Postpartum
I don't understand how anything about this is "postpartum ". I purchased these because my local target doesn't sell the FridaMom postpartum pads in store. I expected something comparable. These are for some reason smaller and less absorbent than a period pad. They had been designed by a man or someone who has never given birth and did not bother to do any research. If you know anything about postpartum bleeding you know that you need BIGGER and more absorbent than a regular period pad, not smaller! I literally never write reviews but these are trash. I may donate them to a local elementary school for the girls' first periods if target won't take them back.

Not what you need after birth
Absolutely ridiculous. Who is this supposed to fit my 10 year old. I don’t understand how this is a postpartum anything. They are super small and I am past my return window. Don’t stock up too early because you will regret this purchase (especially when you spent $15).

More discreet than the hospital pads
These worked well for me as I only had light/medium bleeding, small clots, and minor incontinence. After I used up my supply of hospital pads it felt better to wear these regular sized pads. Good amount in package for frequent changes. If I had my normal period which is heavy flow, these wouldn't have worked.

Just get regular menstural pads
Honestly, just use regular pads or adult diapers. These were disappointing and seemed to be less effective than regular pads.

Always Discreet Postpartum pads are designed with a RapidDry layered core forming boosted protection in the center of the pad, holding up to five times the average leak while caring for sensitive skin by locking in liquid and turning it to gel for 100% leak-free protection.

Better options elsewhere
Where is the pad? It’s incredibly short/small, narrow, and offers very little protection, and absorption. They’re not made with women beyond smaller, standard sizes in mind, and even then, I’m second guessing that. I don’t know what is happening with Always, as a brand, but I feel like product designs and decisions aren’t being well thought out. The only thing these have going for them, is they’re unscented.

Don't buy!!!
I rarely write bad reviews but this product was so bad I had to share. It's supposed to be "leak proof for 12 hours." Within one hour of wearing it leaked through and ruined a pair of bottoms as well as my nice sheet set and left a stain on my matress. These are no where near what they shoukd be for postpartum bleeding. They are basically a glorified panty liner. Using a regular maxi pad would be better than this. So frustrated that I have to replace my sheets. Using this product has cost me way more money. Target should pull this product from the shelf.

We're sorry to hear this happened, Katie, as Always Discreet Postpartum underwear and pads are designed to absorb post-partum bladder leaks and Lochia. Lochia consists of blood, mucous, tissue, and other materials from your uterus. Since our pads are designed for lighter use, it sounds like our postpartum underwear would be better suited to meet your needs right now. We'd love to learn more to help further, so please give us a call when you can at 1-855-206-8286, M-F 9am-6pm EST.

Trash. Not designed by anyone whos given birth
Trash. I wouldn’t even get these for a preteen who started her period for the first time. They are so so tiny. An insult to a postpartum mother, truly. I’m talking 1/8 the size of a Frida pad (which are the absolute best). Material is irritating so not even a reliable backup option. If you have any injury postpartum stay away from these

More of a Panty Liner
Sigh. Always read the reviews first. These are regular sized period pads if you’re a light bleeder. They’re completely useless for postpartum bleeding. I’m 8 months PP and trying to use these up because I don’t like being wasteful, but geez they’re awful. I always get period on my underwear because the pad moves around. I’m a medium/heavy flow, and these are not the business. The only thing I like about it is the softness compared to the regular Always period pads, which is like a plastic material. However, for incontinence when you laugh or sneeze is perfect. I would use this pad more as a panty liner for this exact situation and not as a postpartum pad.

Maxi pad review
They don’t stick to underwear that well. They’re pretty thin, I needed a thicker pad. The maxi pads the hospital provided were better. I also feel like they’re overpriced because it’s labeled “postpartum”. I might as well bought a regular pack of pads. When I run out I’ll be buying a different kind.

Wish I read reviews before wasting my money on these. They are narrow and have elastic on the outside like a diaper but it doesn’t actually help keep blood on the pad. Definitely not good for postpartum, would also not work well for periods. The pads from the hospital are much better than these. Really shocked these are even on the shelves.
