Sizing Guide

Important Sizing Information

Do not take your own measurement. Compression garments require an accurate fit to function correctly. Be measured in your underwear only. Stand with your heels together and have the person measuring keep the tape straight. The tape should be placed over your hips, across the pubic bone and around the fullest part of your bottom. The tape should touch your body at all points but must not be pulled tight.

Frequently Asked Questions

When can I start wearing SRC Recovery Leggings after birth?

SRC Recovery garments can usually be worn soon after delivery, including after a caesarean section, unless your healthcare professional advises otherwise. Many women begin wearing them in the early postpartum period for additional abdominal and pelvic support.

If you have any concerns about your incision, swelling, or complications, speak to your midwife, GP or obstetrician before use.

Are SRC Recovery Leggings suitable after a C-section?

Yes. SRC Recovery garments are commonly worn following caesarean birth to provide gentle abdominal support around the incision area. The compression is designed to be firm yet comfortable, helping you feel more secure as you move.

Always ensure the garment fits correctly and does not rub or irritate your wound.

How long should I wear them each day?

You can wear SRC Recovery garments during the day for support and comfort, removing them at night unless otherwise advised by a healthcare professional. Many women wear them for several hours at a time, especially during activity or when on their feet.

Comfort should guide wear time.

Will Restore help with heaviness in the perineum?

The Restore gusset has a triple-layer support panel and will provide support to the entire perineal area.

How long should I use postpartum compression wear?

This varies from woman to woman. Some wear supportive garments for a few weeks, while others continue for several months postpartum depending on their recovery, comfort and activity levels.

Listen to your body and seek advice if unsure.

Will they help with abdominal muscle recovery?

SRC Recovery garments are designed to provide structured compression and support to the abdominal and pelvic areas. While they do not replace pelvic floor or core rehabilitation exercises, they may help you feel more supported as you rebuild strength.

For tailored recovery advice, consider seeing a Women’s Health Physiotherapist.

How do I choose the correct size?

Correct sizing is essential for comfort and effectiveness. Always use the size guide and measure carefully before ordering, as postpartum compression garments do not follow standard clothing sizes.

If you’re between sizes, follow the brand’s specific sizing guidance.

Can I wear them under everyday clothes?

Yes. SRC Recovery garments are designed to be discreet and breathable, making them suitable for daily wear under most clothing.

How do I wash and care for them?

Follow the care instructions provided with your garment. Typically, gentle washing and air drying will help maintain the integrity of the compression fabric.

REVIEWS

  • Very Supportive Shorts Postpartum –The SRC shorts are perfect and so supportive, I notice some discomfort in my abdomen when I am not wearing them. I purchased the champagne and wear them under my clothes. The customer service I received was excellent, I had to exchange the size as it was not quite right. They were very prompt in their responses and in sending out the new pair,thank you. I would recommend this company and product to all mamas, I wish I had them when I had my first baby.

  • Gave me the support I really needed after my C-section - I started wearing these in the first couple of weeks after my C-section and they made such a difference. I felt much more supported when moving around and getting in and out of bed. They’re firm but comfortable, and I felt more confident being active again.

    Georgie P

  • Comfortable enough for all-day wear - I was worried they would feel too tight, but they’re actually very comfortable. The compression feels supportive without being restrictive. I wore them under clothes and no one could tell. Definitely helped me feel more secure in those early postpartum weeks.

    Justine P

  • Supportive without feeling bulky - I’ve tried other postpartum support garments and these are by far the best. They give gentle abdominal support and helped my posture when feeding and carrying my baby. I also like that they don’t roll down.
