The Comfiest Knickers You Will Ever Wear

Made from eco-friendly Tencel™ Modal, our postpartum knickers feel like a second skin and won't ride up or roll down.

The seamless design is discreet, soft and won't rub or irritate your skin.

If you're recovering after birth, the high-waisted, C-section-friendly fit sits gently above your incision line, moulding to your figure with light compression and support while your body recovers.

The anti-leak, quick-drying gusset makes them reusable for postpartum bleeding and light incontinence leaks, so there's no need for disposable pads.

A reliable, sustainable alternative to disposable maternity briefs.

Order one size up from your usual size. These sit high with light compression to clear a C-section scar, and that only works with enough fabric to reach, so a snug fit defeats the purpose. Sizes run S to XL. If you are between sizes, size up rather than down. Anything tight around a tender abdomen in the first weeks tends to stay unworn in a drawer.
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.
Yes, and that is what the high waist is for. The waistband sits above the usual bikini-line incision so no seam rests on healing tissue, and the seamless Tencel™ modal is soft enough to wear over dressings in the early days. Get the size right and the waistband stays put. Too small and it rolls down onto exactly the spot you are protecting.
For many people, yes. The anti-leak, quick-drying gusset is designed for postpartum bleeding and light incontinence leaks, so they can replace disposables entirely or work alongside them through the heavier first days. That is also why buying several pairs matters more than with ordinary underwear, since you will change more often than usual.
Machine wash at 30 degrees on a low temperature and keep them out of the tumble dryer. Heat is what breaks down the 7% elastane that gives them their shape, and it is the most common reason seams and waistbands go before their time. Skip fabric softener, and wash them with similar items rather than alongside zips or hooks that catch a seamless knit.

Customers say these knickers are soft, comfortable, and provide excellent coverage with a high-waisted design that sits smoothly above the scar. The fabric feels gentle on tender skin while remaining supportive, and the waistband doesn't roll or dig in. Many reviews highlight how the material maintains its stretch through washing and adapts well as the body changes. Users appreciate the smooth seams that don't irritate, and note they sit seamlessly under leggings. Most find them ideal for recovery and everyday wear. A few mention sizing runs small and suggest sizing up, while occasional concerns include lint pickup and fabric durability after washing.

    Really good. My Mum recommended.

    my Mum actually put me onto them she uses them for her menopause and she wasnt wrong these are excellent quality and fit. I didnt size up as the reviews suggested stupidly but tbf they fit fine not to tight guess it depends what fit you want.

    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

    Happily repurchase in daily use

    The cut gives good coverage while still feeling light. A very worthwhile purchase. After 7 weeks, I am still pleased with it.
