Womens High Waist Cotton Panties C Section Recovery Postpartum Soft Stretchy Full Coverage Underwear(5 Pack)

If you’re looking for comfortable underwear comparable to the mesh undies that the hospital gives you after birth, look no further. These are great postpartum whether you have a natural birth or a c section. They are very soft and don’t irritate my incision site. They also go well above my belly button so there’s no pressure on those tender ab muscles. There’s also no need for a belly band because these hold everything in. There is also full coverage on my booty. (How many times can I say “also” in one paragraph?) I’m 5 ft tall and weigh 145 lbs postpartum. Most of my weight is in my belly and thighs so I bought the size large and they fit very comfortably. These are pretty stretchy too. Now, 6 weeks later, I’ve lost a bit of weight in my belly and the undies still fit comfortably. After about 4 weeks of every day wear, some of them were fitting a bit snug around my thighs so I stopped putting them in the dryer and now they all fit fine.

I had a kidney transplant 24 days ago. (Thank you. Yes, I’m super happy and grateful!!) I was told my incision would be vertical and to the side of my belly button, but I guess my anatomy demanded differently. My incision is actually horizontal starting at the left side, running between my belly button and pubic bone, and curving up on the right side…about 10 inches across, like a crooked smiley face. 😏 The fact that it was so low made me think of a C-section and that’s why I went searching for C-section panties. I normally wear bikini underwear, but the elastic was hitting right on the incision. Plus, I was kind of hoping for a little support across the front of my belly to kind of “brace” the incision and make it hurt a little less. I saw some other C-section panties that boasted a firm support panel in the front, but it was made with either spandex or silicone. I figured that would be great support, but I was advised to let my incision “breathe” as much as possible, so I opted for the panties made from cotton. (I currently have to travel to the transplant center twice a week. Otherwise I’d just go around sans pants.) Anyway, these look exactly like the pictures. They are really big, lol, “granny panties” except that they fit well and aren’t droopy. But they are, indeed, high waisted. The waist line is nice and soft (the elastic is fully covered) and there is a three inch band across the top. The only problem is the band (which offers a little bit of support) is around the waist and not across the front, or anywhere near the pubic bone. What I’ve been doing is putting them on and then folding down the waistband so that I get a double layer of coverage and a bit of compression on my particular incision. I don’t think it would work for a C-section though. Still, they’re nicely made, very soft, and have a high waist if that’s what you want. They looked so big to me coming out of the package that I thought I’d ordered the wrong size. However, they fit me perfectly around the legs. I had my care partner wash them and dry them in the dryer and they did not shrink at all. I’m 5’4” 135 pounds. The site suggested I buy large and that’s what I got. I’d say they fit perfectly for the style.

I ordered these about a month before my baby was born and tried to wear them while still very pregnant- not a super comfy fit. Nevertheless I brought a pair to wear home from the hospital, and I am so glad I did! Once my baby was born these fit perfectly and very comfortably. Plenty of coverage, and for me it feels like just the right amount of support for my belly as I recover from a c section. I read some other reviews saying these lack support below the waist- I didn’t have the same problem, but after my staples were removed, I was given some pads to put over the incision so maybe those helped supplement the support from the underwear. I’m honestly considering buying them again just to have more pairs. Highly recommend.

I’ve really liked these undies post c-section. They are fairly tight and the seam at the front make them less than ideal for the first few weeks post-surgery, but after a little recovery, they are comfy and make me feel HUMAN. It’s been 2.5 years since I initially purchased and I only have two pairs left. The others wore out (holes). I do plan to purchase again because I like them - I just know they won’t last forever. The elastic is strong, yet comfortable, especially around the legs. They don’t ride up (and down) AT ALL which I really love. Thats the deciding factor for me in repurchasing!

Great fit. Helpful for after I had my twins by c section.

These were great post surgery but after a few washes they shrunk n got especially super tight in my legs and it’s really uncomfortable if you jet def wash in cold water and air drive

I had an unplanned c section and was SO GLAD I bought these during pregnancy for postpartum. I bought them for the purpose of containing my pads and ice packs after labor (bc disposable ones are uncomfy) , which I did, but with the unplanned c section these were amazing for the incision. All my other underwear would have bunched or laid right on the incision but not these!!! I still wear these all the time and will probably buy more because they are just that comfortable. They are perfect for periods/pads and dare I say a little tummy control for my high waisted pants. The black ones are actually pretty cute too and accentuate my curves. I’m in my granny panty era and I’m all here for it! LOL (

These were perfect for the recovery period after a c-section! They have some tummy support and do not rub the incision. These coupled with an ab binder have saved me from being completely miserable while I recover from my 2nd C-section. True to size

Súper bien...buena calidad

I ordered up a size and still it was too small. The X-large is equivalent to an Australian size 10. It also was not high waisted like in the photo. I can't see how it is suitable after C-section since you will still have a bump afterwards and these panties did not come close to covering my belly button like in the photo. It just sat on my bump and slid down and sat where the excision would be. I would not recommend for C-section at all.

These were terrible! They are not what the picture looks like at all; they didn’t have a nice high band to go over your tummy and were ridiculously small. I am 5 foot 4 and typically wear a size xs while not pregnant, however while pregnant I would often wear a small in maternity and post partum clothing. I had a c section and was interested in something not sitting on my incision and holding me in a little. I ordered a medium because I thought I would rather slightly big and no pressure than feeling like they were a little tight. They came and they are seriously no bigger than a child’s size small I couldn’t get a thigh in if I tried, they were so utterly small we had all wondered what I even ordered. The elastics around the waist and tummy were so tight even if on some planet any grown adult could fit these, the elastics would cut circulation. I would never recommend these!
