The Comfiest Knickers You Will Ever Wear

With a beautifully flattering low-cut design, our seamless knickers are made for your postpartum body. Exceptionally soft, breathable and eco-friendly, they offer comfort exactly where you need it most.

Crafted from luxuriously soft Tencel™ Modal, the fabric stretches and adapts as your body settles after birth, while the gentle, flexible waistband sits comfortably without digging in, kind to tender tummies and healing skin.

In those early weeks, the triple-layered, anti-leak, quick-drying gusset helps you feel secure and supported all day.

Perfect for postpartum and C-section recovery, the low-rise fit sits just below your incision line to minimise irritation, so comfort comes first while you heal.

Designed for life after birth and beyond.

Both are cut to sit above a caesarean incision, so neither sits higher than the other and either will keep the waistband clear of a scar. These are the pair designed specifically around C-section recovery, with a triple-layered anti-leak quick-drying gusset and a soft, flexible waistband that will not dig into a tender tummy. Choosing between the two comes down to which cut you find more comfortable rather than one being safer than the other.
Yes. The seamless Tencel™ modal is soft enough to sit over a dressing without rubbing, and the light compression is gentle rather than gripping. That is exactly the stage they are designed for, which is why several pairs in a hospital bag is worth doing even if you are hoping for a vaginal birth, since around one in four UK births is a caesarean.
No. For hygiene reasons we cannot accept returns or exchanges on knickers, even unworn with tags and stickers attached, so it is worth checking the size guide before ordering rather than buying two sizes to try. If they arrive faulty, damaged or are not what you ordered, that is different: contact us before sending anything back and we will put it right.
One size up from your usual size, and up again if you are unsure. These need enough height and width to sit clear of a scar, and anything snug will roll down onto exactly the spot you are protecting. Sizes run S to XL. Ordering for the body you will have immediately after birth, not before pregnancy, is the key thing.
Most people wear them constantly for the first six weeks and then keep reaching for them for months afterwards, because scar sensitivity lasts longer than the visible healing does. Plenty of customers tell us they carry on wearing them well past the point they needed to, simply because they are more comfortable than their old underwear.

    Too small

    I’ve had to take off 2 stars as they run very small. I’m normally a medium but ordered a large. They’re still too small and the seams land on my C-section scar. I’d recommend going up 2 sizes.

    Aside from the bad fitting the product is great, it holds the area well and makes me feel more secure. The material is nice and soft making it very comfortable.

    Will definitely order more but in a larger size

    Made a real difference: kept their stretch after washing

    I was unsure whether we really needed it, but it has proved its worth. The waistband stretches over my bump without rolling or digging in. They have kept their shape after repeated washing. It has made everyday life that bit easier.

    Nearly perfect

    Needed something uncomplicated and this has done the job. The cut gives good coverage while still feeling light. The shade is a little different from the website photos, but still lovely.

C-Section Friendly

With an extra 50% stretch at the waist, our postpartum knickers are completely C-section friendly.

The soft fabric moulds to your changing shape, offering gentle compression and support without digging in, kind to tender skin as it heals.

Comfort you can count on through your postpartum journey and C-section recovery.

Comfort & Protection

The premium triple layered gusset combines antibacterial, absorbent and waterproof layers in one discreet design.

It gives reliable protection against postpartum bleeding, urination leaks and light incontinence, reducing the need for disposable pads.

Quick drying and reusable, it keeps you feeling fresh and secure all day, so you can focus on you and your baby.

Seamless, Tag Free, No VPL

Crafted from premium Tencel™ Modal, the fibres are lighter, finer and more flexible than traditional underwear fabrics.

Seamless knit technology gives the softest touch against your skin, with no tags, rubbing or visible lines under clothing.

Discreet, gentle and so comfortable you'll forget you're wearing them.
