How does Belly Bandit C-Section Recovery Underwear work?
Post-delivery, C-section underwear is a lifesaver. Constructed from a soft, breathable fabric, these undies keep you cool and comfortable; protect your incision site during recovery; and offer targeted compression to help reduce swelling in the areas you need it most.
Why do I need Belly Bandit C-Section Recovery Undies?
If you’ve just had a C-section, trust us: You’ll want C section recovery underwear ASAP. You’ll want support for your weakened muscles and protection for your incision site to promote faster healing. They’ll give you the confidence you need to get back to your daily routine and be ready to take on any challenge motherhood throws your way.
Do Belly Bandit c-section undies provide compression?
You bet! In fact, they provide two different levels of compression in the areas you need it most: firm compression around your mid-section to support your core and lower back, and light compression around your incision to reduce swelling without causing discomfort.
When should I start wearing c-section underwear?
You can start wearing C-section recovery underwear as soon as you’d like. Some women feel comfortable wearing them just a few days after surgery, while others prefer to wait until a few weeks post-surgery to start wearing them regularly. Remember, these undies should be snug and supportive, not uncomfortably tight. Be sure to measure yourself post-delivery and reference our Underwear Size Chart to find the best size for your recovering body.
What makes Belly Bandit c-section panties different from other compression undies
At Belly Bandit, it’s the details that really matter. That’s why we don’t just make compression undies; we make post-C-section underwear. Designed with Stayput™ technology to prevent rolling and uncomfortable pinching, all of our panties are sewn with soft, high-quality fabrics that we blend with silver-infused yarns to help minimize odor and prevent bacteria, so you can feel fresh and comfortable all day long. With so many little details added to help soothe specific pains from C-section surgery, you’ll never want to settle for just a regular pair of compression undies ever again.
How Belly Bandit C-Section recovery undies help with postpartum
Even though they’re designed with C-section recovery in mind, these undies can also be used after vaginal delivery. Every woman deserves to own at least one pair of reliable underwear, especially during postpartum. With so many changes happening simultaneously, your body needs all the support it can get. The targeted compression zones in C-section recovery undies help combat postpartum aches and swelling by providing much-needed support to overworked muscles. Soft, breathable, and easy to take on and off, these undies have everything you need to face postpartum symptoms head-on!
Will these undies help reduce swelling?
They may. Every woman’s road to recovery will be a little bit different, but many medical professionals recommend abdominal binders as an effective, simple, non‐pharmacological option for relieving pain and swelling after a Cesarean delivery.
Are Belly Bandit c-section undies sweat wicking and odor resistant?
Absolutely! Our C-section undies are constructed using a breathable seamless knit to keep you cool and dry throughout the day. We also design the front panel of all our C-section undies with silver-infused fibers to minimize odor and bacteria around your incision site.

Customer Reviews
These were an absolute godsend postpartum c-section! I wish I would've known about them after my first baby. These have provided so much support and compression right where it's needed. They also make me feel less self conscious when going out, keeps the pouch compressed. I probably will order a size down now that I've lost a descent amount of baby weight. I would highly recommend these. I ordered an XL and my stats at the time were height 5'6 weight 215lbs.
Loved these underwear after having a repeat c-section for my second baby. I was able to start wearing them less than a week after birth. These really helped to make me feel supported after birth, especially getting in and out of bed. Wish I could have had these after my first child. I would recommend getting pre-pregnancy size or slightly smaller. I was a L/XL before birth and the XL is no longer feeling tight enough at 3 weeks PP. I may need to order the next size down soon.
These suck your belly in. They're right but that's the point, right? The material is good quality and I love that there are a few rows of hooks so you can adjust it to be tighter as baby weight is lost.
I am so incredibly happy that I bought my undies for after I had my daughter. This was my second c-section and I WISH I would’ve had this when I had my first baby. I wore my undies day 3 after having my c-section and was able to go and be present at my oldest daughters, day-long cheer competition! I’ve recommended this compression garment to my 2 cousins that are pregnant and the 4 people I work with who are also pregnant! I wear mine most days and it has significantly cut down on the amount of pain and discomfort I have felt post c-section.
I couldn’t be more happy with this purchase!!
