SRC Recovery Shorts provide postpartum support and pain relief after a c-section or vaginal delivery so you can move more freely post-delivery. Pregnancy pushes your body nearly as much as extreme endurance sports. Speeding up recovery after delivery, the peak of this marathon event, is a crucial part in enjoying a healthier motherhood journey for you, your baby and your family.

SRC Recovery garments aid in the treatment of:

  • C-section wounds
  • Perineal traum
  • Episiotomy wounds
  • Abdominal muscle separation (Diastasis Rectus Abdominus Muscle (DRAM))
  • Lower back pain

Designed with anti-chafing fabric and in consultation with an obstetrician for the ultimate in comfort and functionality, SRC Recovery Shorts provide the support you need to heal and move more freely post-delivery.

What’s the difference between a postpartum belly band or belly wrap after pregnancy and the SRC Recovery Shorts?

Your questions answered!

Q. CAN I SLEEP IN MY RECOVERY GARMENT?
Yes, absolutely!

Q. HOW MANY HOURS A DAY CAN I WEAR MY RECOVERY GARMENT?
You should wear your SRC Recovery garments for as many hours as they feel comfortable. They can be worn both day and night.

Q. I'M RIGHT IN BETWEEN 2 SIZES, WHICH DO I CHOOSE?
With recovery compression garments, when you are between sizes, we recommend that you select the size down to achieve the optimal fit due to likely rapid loss of fluid post birth.

Q. WHEN SHOULD I START TO WEAR MY SRC RECOVERY SHORTS OR LEGGINGS & LEGGINGS?
Begin wearing your SRC Recovery Shorts & Leggings as soon as you feel comfortable. For best results our research indicates to start wearing them within the first two days post delivery. It really depends on how you feel and advice of your health care practitioner. Most women put them on around the 36-48 hour mark post delivery, in the case of c-section maybe a little longer, as any straining is definitely contraindicated.

You will most likely need some assistance putting them on the first few times. Most midwives and hospital physios know our product and should be able to assist you.

If at any stage you feel pain, please take them off. The breathable lining and fabric will not impede healing in any way. In case of C-section - if your wound is infected, you can wear product during day and remove during the night to allow additional airflow to the wound until fully healed.

Q. HOW MANY HOURS A DAY SHOULD I WEAR MY SRC RECOVERY SHORTS & LEGGINGS?
You should wear your SRC Recovery & Leggings Shorts for as many hours as they feel comfortable. Your Shorts or Leggings can be worn both day and night.

Q. HOW MANY WEEKS SHOULD I WEAR MY SRC RECOVERY SHORTS & LEGGINGS FOR?
Your SRC Recovery Shorts & Leggings have been designed for use in the first 8-10 weeks after delivery but can and should be worn for as long as they provide benefit. Many women continue to wear the garment long after the initial healing stage, for both exercise and for aesthetic reasons under fitted clothing.
