The most innovative CORE + FLOOR postpartum compression shorts are here!
Our athletic mid-length biker shorts have a CORE postnatal recovery panel built-in.
The amount of support built into these compression shorts is just right. It acts like a posture cue, an abdominal splint, and a pelvic supporter. It's truly multi-dimensional & comfortable support wear! The recovery panel is perfect for supporting the abdominals after baby and helps re-align the midsection. The 4-way stretch tech fabric gives the abdominals increased proprioceptive feedback and helps to support your core.
Our BOTTOMS UP support style was created to prevent increased pressure on the pelvic floor. It has the ideal amount of support starting at the pelvis and lifting upward - As opposed to rigid belts in the past which squished, squeezed and cinched creating a downward push. Say goodbye to rigid Velcro!
The shorts are also built to give flattering coverage for the fourth trimester and during breastfeeding. You will love how these postnatal recovery shorts feel on your body!

*Size up if you are wearing early postpartum. You want a comfortable, therapeutic hug but not too tight fit. Order the size you will be approximately when you are wearing them, not your pre-pregnancy size.
**The XS is a specialty size for petite women and not worn by many women in the early postpartum weeks. It is reserved for those in the later stages of postpartum who have dropped their weight and are back to size 0/2/4 but still need therapeutic core support.
“Love Me Longer Care”: Gentle wash with like colors. Use mild detergent. Line dry or tumble dry on low heat. Do not Bleach. Do not use fabric softeners, bleach, soak, leave wet, dry clean, or iron.
Ordered these after my 2nd delivery and first c-section. Good compression that provides more support than another major brand I ordered. My only con is that the seam hits right at my c-section scar.
These are so comfortable and supportive. I have a prolapse from my first pregnancy/delivery, and have some pelvic floor dysfunction (again) after my second. I’ve been wearing these compression shorts or the pants almost every day since I delivered and they’re amazing. I have a size small which is perfect for me - I was a size 4/6 before getting pregnant and gained about 30 pounds while pregnant. I can’t recommend these enough!
The recovery shorts are amazing! They are comfortable, supportive, and stylish.
Postpartum essential for warm weather. Love them so much, bought the full length leggings the day I got them.
I LOVE my postpartum leggings so even though it's been over 9 months since I gave birth, I had to get these bike shorts. I'm around a size 10 but I sized up to a Large based on the fit of my leggings. I think I could have gone with a Medium but the Large is more comfortable and still pretty supportive. My only issue with these is that they are too long, I'm 5'2" and they almost reach my knees, which is an unflattering length on me, and I have to fold the waistband over about an inch to fit under my bra. I wish they had a petite version!
