This may seem like a stupid question, but I am having trouble finding 100% cotton underwear for myself. I haven't shopped for undies in the US for at least 20 years...I also need white cotton undies for little girls.
Where do you shop? I checked Lands end little girls. 3 pair white 90 - 10% for $14.50. I didn't check the women's section yet.
So ladies, open up your undie drawer and share your experience.

 While you're at it, please share where you get maternity underwear too, please. Hubby and I went to 3 different stores 3 weeks ago and found NOTHING. They had the tops but not the bottoms, which is ridiculous.

I think Hanes has the 100% cotton. Should be able to find those in basic stores like target or walmart etc.
Just checked and yep.. I bought Hanes in women's and girls from walmart.com and both are 100% cotton.
Stef - no clue on your question.. I use bikini style and they go under the tummy.

Stef - Regular bikinis can be worn throughout a pregnancy. They fit right under the belly.
Hanes Her Way (all cotton) are available at Target or Walmart.

Look at the packages of unders in both the women's and girls sections of stores like Target. That's where all the cotton unders are...and Motherhood Maternity has cotton unders too. I bought some last year when I was pregnant. They came in a package of 3, I think.

Nope, our Target doesn't have anything at all. Which is really weird. I asked the pregnant cashier why that is and she doesn't know either. I'll check target.com. Thanks for the tips!

I was at target today and they don't have any white underwear for dd.
Why should white be so difficult to find?

Oh, I'm so sorry you have to do the searching! I get frustrated when I just want plain clothes -- no figures, no writing, no advertising -- just cotton and comfortable. It's hard to find in both underwear and outerwear! Grrrr!
Can I tag on this request? I'm also looking for the tagless cotton underwear for sensitive girls. Anyone?

My daughters wear Hanes Her Way (one in ladies' sizes and one in children's) and the ones we've most recently bought have been tagless. We have the most luck finding them at WalMart, but Target sells them as well.
Hope that helps, Jenn.
Peace,
Nancy

Hanes and FOL have 100% cotton knickers for ladies in all sorts of cuts. I think we got some for Carrie that were either FOL or Hanes in little girls' sizes...
Hannas are AWESOME - everything from there wears like iron. Fabulous.
Blessings,

My dc (who have lots of sensory issues) only wear hanna's and they are all organic cotton now- they are pricey! but they are all in fabulous shape and will be handed down at least once.
As far as maternity undies -arrg! We have checked every store in an hour radius- literally. All we could find is thongs!  Please dont explain it is scary enough
I got some motherhood ones but they fit me weird and the elastic wasn't stretchy. I finally settled on buying some jockey briefs a bit big and am much happier.

Oh Betsie!
Thank you so much. I just ordered 4 packs of white unders. What a great deal.
I forgot to ask about maternity.

I need to get some more for the girls. I wear Hanes. Pregnant and not pregnant. Just use the same ones I always do.
Of course, I don't really need any of the maternity undies anyway, right now.  But even if I did need them, I'd get the Hanes Her Ways I usually wear.
