How do the Belly Bandit postpartum shorts work?
Belly Bandit’s postpartum recovery shorts combine compression technology with the smoothing benefits of shapewear to emphasize your figure while providing complete support to weakened and strained muscles in your core, back, and hips. Using moderate to high levels of compression, these Mother Tucker Shorties encourage healthy blood flow, which may help reduce swelling, lessen muscle soreness, and promote faster healing.
What is the purpose of postpartum shorts?
Postpartum shorts are specifically designed to do two things: give your body the extra support it needs for a quick and successful recovery after delivery and smooth out the lumps and bumps to help you feel confident and comfortable in your body as you return to pre-pregnancy activities.
What colors are Belly Bandit Mother Tucker Shorties available in?
These postpartum shorts are available in two colors — Black and Almond — and we definitely recommend grabbing one of each for added versatility in your wardrobe.
- Black
These sleek black shorts are perfect for lounging at home, running a quick errand or two, or pairing under darker dresses and jumpsuits. - Almond
We love to wear these light beige shorties as subtle postpartum shapewear under just about anything.
How soon after pregnancy can you wear postpartum shorts?
The sooner you start wearing your postpartum compression shorts, the better. Your recovering body needs all the support it can get! However, the exact date of when to start wearing them is entirely up to you. We also always recommend consulting with your doctor to see if they have any specific suggestions about how and when to wear your postpartum shorts.
Do these shorts provide compression?
You bet! The compression technology used to design these shorts is part of what makes them some of the best postpartum shorts on the market. Not only do these postpartum recovery shorts use compression to give your muscles the extra support they need, but they do it all without rolling, pinching, or digging uncomfortably into your skin.
What are the best postpartum compression shorts?
The best postpartum shorts are supportive and comfortable. As a new mom, you have enough going on right now without having to worry about constantly adjusting, tugging, and pulling on your shorts to keep them in the right place! Postpartum recovery shorts should fit snugly, but not so snug that they feel uncomfortable or make it difficult to move.
How do I know which size I need?
You can easily find your right size by measuring your waist and hips, then referencing our leggings/bottoms size chart. We recommend measuring yourself post-pregnancy to get the most accurate sizing. However, if you’d like to have a pair of postpartum compression shorts ready to go in your hospital bag, then we suggest ordering one size up from your pre-pregnancy measurements.
Are these postpartum shorts lightweight?
Yes — our postpartum recovery shorts are super lightweight. You’re likely to forget you’re even wearing them!
Will these shorts show through clothing?
These postpartum shorts are virtually invisible under clothing. Made out of a lightweight, barely-there material, they’re the perfect base layer for any outfit. Plus, the Mother Tucker Shorties are available in Black and Almond, so they go with just about everything.
