Sorry, wasn't sure about target being there. They make their own brand of hipsters called Target "low rise" but I prefer the bonds. Yep Bonds is the name (I just had a thought that maybe bonds is an Aussie brand ) Don't know if they ship internationally or not but they're really comfy and come in high cut, briefs, boy-leg, boxer shorts and all of these are hipsters.http://www.bonds.com.au/Women/default.asp will take you to the website and some pics.

Hi Beth, I'm just catching up on the emails tonight and thought I'd pitch in. Always buy a size or two higher for cotton underwear since they will shrink in the wash. Non cotton types aren't a problem. As for thongs - I love them, too, but its definitely a personal preference.

I definately prefer to wear cotton. I love the "Pink" collection by Victoria's Secret... the low-rise ones fit me the best.

Thanks for your suggestions!!Since you both get cotton, do you buy your "normal size" according to the package measurements? Or do you go a size or two bigger for shrinkage and/or comfort factor.
Isn't it fun talking about undies. No humility on this board! That's why I love it too. No topic off limits!!!And noone thinks your weird for asking them about their BM's or what kind of undies they wear. I think we live in our own little IBS world sometimes!

Hi, guys. I want to add my 2 cents about underwear to the post! I don't mind hipsters, and I don't have too much trouble with stuff on my tummy, but what I HATE is when I bloat so badly that it seems that everything else pinches...pants, for example, or the legs of my underwear. Has anyone found a brand of underwear that is comfortable in this regard, or is the short answer simply to wear a size or two bigger on days when you bloat?

I really like Hanes Her Way bikini cut. They stay in place and are made of cotton. They also are cheap and can be found at K-mart, Wal-mart, Meijer , Target just about anywhere. For a little more pricey undies I like Victoria Secret's Bikini cotton. I also buy 1 size bigger for comfort!

For around the legs, try the hipster tanga from the gap. It isn't a thong, as it has butt coverage, but the legs are cut straight across in the back, so there is a little bit of cheek hang-out, but no elastic bands around the legs. I find these to be the most comfy underwear, whether I get them in cotton or mesh. The mesh ones have a cotton crotch, by the way -- I can't stand anything else! Panda

I find the elastic in the Haynes her way to be too tight. I buy Jockey. They aren't really cotton, more of a stretchy microfiber. I usually wear a panty liner with them. You can get them at most of the discount deptartment stores loke Kohls and Jc Penny. The cotton ones from Victoria secret are also too tight on my belly but the invisible panties are really comfy, no heavy elastic waist in them!!
