Review: Excellent- maternity bag essential - I purchased this item to use postpartum and it was an essential for my hospital bag, however my waters broke early (35wks) and I had to be hospitalised and monitored, luckily I had purchased this and had it in my hospital bag because the maternity pads supplied my the hospital could not hold the amniotic fluid that was leaking from me for a week before I finally went into labour (36wks). This pad was the only thing that saved me from being constantly wet and saturated with amniotic fluid after my waters broke and I continue to leak until baby was born. It’s great quality for the price, comfortable it’s not too bulky and it holds fluids/blood well, very absorbent and coverage is excellent (covered front and back without issue). After I gave birth I used is only for a few days postpartum because I wasn’t bleeding a lot it wasn’t necessary to wear this but it saved me from unnecessary hassle and uncomfortable wear of other maternity pads when my waters broke because this was absorbent I never leaks or saturation my underwear. Only thing I’d say is it’s not very sticky, it didn’t really stick to my underwear but it was secure enough due to it being big enough and long enough to cover front and back once placed in underwear and pulled up it remained in place so for that I’d give it 9/10.
Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential for Postpartum Comfort – Worth Every Penny! - I recently bought the ABENA Premium Maternity Pads, and I am absolutely thrilled with how well they work. These pads have been a lifesaver during my postpartum recovery, providing exactly the comfort and protection I needed. The first thing I noticed is how incredibly soft and gentle they are on the skin. After giving birth, comfort is everything, and these pads deliver just that. They are breathable and don't cause any irritation, which was a big concern for me with other products. The absorbency is excellent – I felt secure and protected throughout the day, even during the heaviest days. While these pads are slightly more expensive than some other options, I believe the price is entirely fair given the quality and the sustainability aspect. They are eco-labelled and environmentally friendly, which is important to me, and it’s great to find a product that doesn’t compromise on either comfort or conscience. These have truly been a postpartum essential for me, and I would highly recommend them to any new mum looking for reliable, comfortable protection after birth. They’re worth every penny!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are they horribly scented?**
A: They have no scent. If you're thinking about getting these for after giving birth I'd like to suggest getting Aloe Vera gel, keeping it in the fridge and putting some on the pad as it helps cool things.

**Q: Do they come individually wrapped?**
A: No they just all in the one pack

**Q: Can this be used for total incontinence or just for moderate leakage?**
A: Here is a video of the pad compared to a 2L bottle, it's thick aswell, but i wouldn't say it would hold incotinence. It's more for a very heavy bleed after delivery.

**Q: Are these natural cotton and chlorine and fragrance free?**
A: Yes

Perfect after giving birth! Definitely recommend these I felt comfortable and secure wearing these. I’ve always preferred big pads rather then small/thin ones tbh
