The Ultimate Postpartum Checklist: Shapewear, Underwear, Bras and More

Giving birth is an experience that changes your body and your life dramatically. As you spend time with your baby and adjust to your new life, you’ll need patience as your body returns to normal. During your postpartum recovery, the right shapewear can give you new confidence and provide support as your body heals. Compression underwear like shorts, briefs, panties, girdles and bodysuits can lift and smooth your figure and keep everything in place. They’re easy to incorporate into your wardrobe.

Benefits of Postpartum Shapewear

Leonisa’s postpartum shapewear can help you feel secure and comfortable throughout your day. Bottoms with built-in, adjustable belly wraps can shape and support your abdominal muscles as you sit, stand, and pick up your child. Compression garments can alleviate lower back pain and help reduce swelling around a cesarean section incision. They can also hold stretched skin in place and smooth out bumpy areas. Targeted compression on the hips, stomach, and backside can help streamline your figure without pinching or binding. Postpartum belly wraps can be adjusted to suit your changing frame. From briefs to bodysuits, there’s a shapewear option to suit your body. Whatever style you choose, postpartum underwear can help you feel your best as you move into a new phase of life.
