Disposable PP Pads

[Rainbow]

I have cloth pads for the most of it, but the day or two right after I really want to use some disposable pads. I know many won't agree, but this worked with my last two and it is where i am at right now

BUT, with my last two I got these great pads from the hospital and this time I'm birthing at home. The store bought pads are always to thick- they literally hurt when I sit. I've torn really bad with both previous babies. The ones i got at the hospital were:

non-adhesive
contoured
thin!
wider than your average pad- but not crazy wide.

I'm looking and it seems as they get thinner in depth they also get thinner in width. Does anyone know of a brand that is both thin and wide? By wide I mean 5/6 inches, not 17 or something (which I am finding in the incontinence section)

Promise brand day/light incontinence pads. *cough* I got a pack from my grandma postpartum - they're maybe 3/4" to an inch wider than a regular pad, and as thin as a kotex ultrathin. They ARE adhesive tho - but just a strip across the front and back, and they're more diaper shaped than actual pad shaped. They're HARD to find though. Tena day lights are similar, but kind of elastic'y at the edges like a disposible diaper.

Thank you! I don't care if they are adhesive, I just don't want long, skinny and thick... OUCH! Normal disposable pads are the perfect size to wedge up on the tear and tender area. I will look online for those, thanks for the suggestions!
