If you’re like me, the clothes that you have in your closet pre-pregnancy probably aren’t the most ideal options that you want to wear after having a baby. Everything that I had in my wardrobe was fitted, petite, and not postpartum-friendly. They all worked for me before baby, but were the last things I wanted to wear post-pregnancy. This is why I wore some of my maternity clothes a little longer than normal until I found some better options that I could feel more comfortable and confident in.
While searching online for some new postpartum options, I realized that most women don’t think about the undergarments that they need after giving birth. If you’re planning on breastfeeding, I’m sure you have thought about and selected some great nursing bras. But have you thought about your undies? Things can be a little tender and sore down there after you give birth. You may have stitches, some bleeding, and swelling that you’re recovering from. All of these things can make moving around uncomfortable and difficult. This is why having some good postpartum underwear is essential!
Luckily, I’ve found the postpartum product that all mamas need but never knew they needed! And they are cute, too. 🙂 They are the high-waisted postpartum underwear from Kindred Bravely.
Why Postpartum Underwear?
Regular underwear is not designed with the postpartum body in mind. They are not adequate or gentle enough to support your delicate areas post-delivery. You need underwear that:
- stretches, is soft, comfortable, and breathable
- will hold your postpartum pads in place to prevent unwanted leaks
- conforms with your changing body that won’t dig into your skin
- doesn’t have the elastic band sitting around your incision area/ stitches (if you had a C-section)
This will help minimize irritation to your sensitive areas. Even more importantly, it minimizes the chances of infection and the opening up of your wounds. Yikes! Overall, this level of protection will help your body heal faster and is a must!
Why These Undies?
These Kindred Bravely High Waist Postpartum Underwear & C-Section Recovery Panties check off all the points that I just mentioned that you should look for in a postpartum panty. Instead of those huge, ugly, and saggy Granny panties, these are much more comfortable, designed specifically for women post-pregnancy, and will help you with your recovery.
Reasons Why I Keep Recommending Them:
- Their smooth, high-waisted design covers your post-baby belly (which we all want) without digging into your skin.
- It sits above your c-section line, which covers it and protects it from any irritation.
- Their full coverage slimming wide lace band doesn’t bind or pinch!
- The material is ultra-soft, very stretchy, non-itchy, and doesn’t bag or sag.
- They are best for post-op, vaginal delivery, and ongoing C-section recovery.
- Perfect to wear during pregnancy, delivery to one year.
- They have a pretty design and are cute!
You no longer have to sacrifice style for comfort with these undies. They really are the perfect thing for every mother postpartum and the perfect addition to your hospital bag. Whether you’re going back to work, chasing after your kids, or enjoying your new baby at home after a C-section or a vaginal birth, these undies were made with you in mind!
