Postpartum must-haves for the whole body, including your pelvic floor
12
items Everything from pelvic floor therapy tools to the comfiest postpartum sweatshirt. You deserve it all, mom!
As someone who experienced a 4th degree tear during baby #3, and has been required to see a pelvic floor therapist, this is a must!
ProBody 9-Inch Pilates Ball for Pelvic Floor
These can be so helpful for a variety of reasons—just read the Amazon reviews. For me, it’s do help internal scare tissue from my 4th degree tear.
Vaginal Dilators / Massage Wand for Pelvic Floor Therapy
Again, another great tool if you’re suffering from pelvic floor dysfunction.
Intimate Rose Pelvic Wand Trigger Massager
This is a top recommendation from my pelvic floor therapist if intimacy is painful, for any reason really. I don’t get commission from this one, but I feel the need to share this great company and their products!
Ohnut Intimate Wearable - Painful Sex Meets a Feel-Good Buffer
You probably already have a water jug, but postpartum is the perfect time to buy a new one. Especially if you’re breastfeeding, you’ll need to make sure you’re drinking enough water. I used to have a Stanley and can confidently say I love this brand ...
HydroJug Traveler 32oz Water Bottle w/ Handle & Flip Straw
There’s no way around postpartum hair loss, but this stuff is worth a try to support regrow to quickly!
Mielle Oil
Used this after all 3 pregnancies and I truly believe it helps! You have to be patient, it won’t happen in a month. Fading stretch marks is a long game but why not try to support the process.
Bio-Oil Skincare Body Oil for Scars & Stretch Marks
My favorite loose linen pants that I’ve worn constantly over the last 3 years. Great for postpartum because they’re casual and comfy and can be dressed up or down!
Mae Linen Cargo Pants
Must have if you decide to nurse. My third baby only nursed one side each session, so I was able to accumulate over 60 bags of frozen milk within 10 weeks just from using this every time.
Haakaa
Extremely comfortable, 86% cotton, versatile AND affordable. I love Aerie! Check out my Aerie list for my latest favorites!
Aerie Oh Snap! Sweatshirt
Had these at the hospital and they were a life saver, so I had to buy more! I’ve always had fairly quick recoveries, even after my 4th degree tear, and I think it’s partly because of how diligent I was with icing.
Medline Deluxe Perineal Cold Pack w/ Adhesive
These are a no-brainer if you’re nursing!
Medela Hydrogel Pads for Sore Nipples
