With the addition of two large side pockets roomy enough to hold your smartphone and more, you'll wonder how you ever survived without this new-mama must-have. The Postnatal Recovery Pocket Full Length Tight provides the support and compression you need to assist your postnatal recovery. Compression garments are recommended for new mums following childbirth to increase circulation to aid healing, reduce swelling and reduce post-pregnancy related aches and pains.
Our Recovery styles are designed for use in the first 8-10 weeks after birth, however we know that everyone’s post birth experience will be different. We recommend wearing your Postnatal Recovery Tights for as long as they provide benefits.
We designed these recovery tights in consultation with a women's health physiotherapist to target specific postpartum issues including instability of the hips and pelvis post-birth, lower back pain, abdominal muscle separation (DRAM) or weakness, as well as pelvic floor issues. You'll love the smoothing and squat-proof fabric and a fit that is perfect for comfortable all-day wear as well as post-natal exercise.
Unlike traditional medical garments which can be uncomfortably tight (and not to mention ugly!), our tights will still give you the flexibility of movement while you're looking after your baby and won't irritate your c-section scar. The extra-high waistband also provides you with tummy coverage if you're breastfeeding.
– full length - two large pockets – low seam placement provides lower back support and helps avoid scar irritation – extra coverage high-rise waistband with panel construction to focus on core support – suitable for wear after natural or c-section deliveries – graduated compression to aid in Abdominal Muscle Separation recovery – squat-proof: zero transparency – suitable to wear post-pregnancy or to aid in medical recovery – flat-locked seams and gusset for comfort – 360 degree stretch – moisture-wicking – UV protection rating 50+ – anti-chafe

We suggest checking your hip measurements and using our size guide to help you choose your correct size, it is most important they fit correctly around your hips and legs. In our experience, if you are between sizes or unsure then it's best to size up.
The Recovery Tight is not suitable for and should not be worn during pregnancy.
Everyone’s post birth experience will be different. We recommend continuing to wear your maternity tights until you feel comfortable transitioning to a recovery tight.

So comfortable
I was really worried this would be uncomfortable but they are beautiful to wear. As a first time mum I feel less of a mess in them, which is also a confidence boost when we have visitors!

Chronic back pain? These are for you!
So I’m not post natal, but I wanted to get these tights to offer additional support when training at the gym, as I have chronic low lying back pain. They have been a game changer! I feel supported and the strength they have is great!!

Comfy and warm
These are great! Fit well and they are comfy and warm enough for cooler days. Bought a size up as I don’t love the feeling of compression but know it’s helpful postpartum. Happy with that decision - will be living in these the next few months. Highly recommend!

Great tights for postpartum and beyond
My youngest child is nearly two and I’ve just repurchased these tights in a smaller size. They are the best, very supportive and high waisted.
