FAQ
Why Do You Need Postpartum Underwear?
Postpartum underwear provides much-needed support, comfort and protection for your body in the days after your birth. Unlike regular underwear, maternity and postnatal underwear are designed to not rub against c-section scars, with added absorption for post-delivery blood flow and incontinence which can be experienced throughout and after pregnancy.
Do You Need Postpartum Underwear If You've Had A C-Section?
While everyone's postpartum recovery will be slightly different, no matter if you had a natural birth or c-section, you'll experience some postpartum bleeding. Postpartum underwear will help you find comfort during this postnatal time. With leak-proof underwear, you won't have to worry about unexpected leaks, so you can focus on your body's recovery and the needs of your newborn.
What is the difference between disposable and reusable postpartum underwear?
Both have their place in recovery. Disposable postpartum underwear offers a convenient option when bleeding is heavier and changing regularly is important. Reusable postpartum underwear can be washed and worn again as your bleeding settles. Many mums like having both on hand.
How do I choose the right size for postpartum underwear?
Check the size guide for your chosen style before ordering. Your body will still be changing after birth, so comfort matters much more than fitting into your usual size. You want a secure fit without anything digging into your tummy, hips or sensitive areas. There’s absolutely no rush for your body to return to its pre-pregnancy size.
Is postpartum underwear comfortable enough for everyday wear after birth?
Absolutely. Our range is selected with comfort and practicality in mind, whether you’re resting at home, feeding your baby or finding your feet with your new routine. Choose a style that feels gentle against your skin and gives you room to move.
What materials are used in your postpartum underwear range?
Our range includes different styles for different stages of recovery. Materials vary between products, so check the individual product description for fabric composition and features. We know how much comfort matters when your body is feeling extra sensitive.
Can postpartum underwear help with heavy bleeding and incontinence?
Absolutely. Our super-absorbent disposable postpartum underwear is designed for those early days after birth when bleeding can be quite heavy, as well as unexpected bladder leaks. With the ability to absorb up to 900 mL of liquid, they offer reliable protection while helping you feel comfortable and secure. They’re soft, high-waisted and designed to give you one less thing to worry about as your body recovers. If you’re soaking through a pad in an hour or experiencing unusually heavy bleeding, seek medical advice promptly.
