As your belly grows bigger each day, you will soon need to abandon your old panties and start to look for maternity underwear. 

 

The key question is: How much maternity underwear do I need? 

The answer is 6, here’s why: 

During pregnancy, you will experience hormonal changes, some pregnant women will have more vaginal discharge. Vaginal discharge sticks on your panties and is sometimes smelly. You need to constantly change your underwear for hygiene reasons and to prevent stains on your panties. 

 

If you don’t know when to change your underwear, we recommend you to change it when you see there’s too much discharge, or when you see your panties are turning yellow. This means, you can change up to 2 times during the day, plus 1 time after bathing. You will need extra 2-3 panties for wash, 1-2 for spare. Therefore, the estimated number is 6 underwear. 

 

How to pick maternity underwear? 

Anti-odour & anti-bacterial 

Pick underwear that is anti-odor and anti-bacterial. Why? Because vaginal discharge smells. Also, you don’t want your vagina to get infected during pregnancy. 

Mamaway’s underwear has Ag+ silver ions which inhibit bacterial growth effectively. 

Dries quickly 

Buy underwear that dries quickly, it will save a lot of your time. 

High stretchability 

If you want underwear that can last from pregnancy and beyond, stretchability is a crucial factor you need to consider. 

Tip: The stretchability shouldn’t be affected after wash. 

Mamaway’s panties were proved to be super stretchable, wash it multiple times, it’s still the same.
