Because during this phase of your life, you want to feel comfy and supported by soft-to-wear fabrics

The postpartum period after a baby is born is a wild ride, filled with all kinds of changes for new mums, from skin and hair to hormones and sleep. That’s why it’s super important to prioritise your comfort during the fourth trimester – your body needs plenty of TLC after growing a human being.

If you’re looking for eco-friendly products that are designed to keep you comfy and supported towards the end of your pregnancy journey and into postpartum, you’ve come to the right place!

The Boody brand is all about bamboo, which is their hero fabric. It’s sustainable and has loads of benefits that make it perfect for your postpartum body: it’s naturally breathable and moisture wicking, hypoallergenic and gentle on the skin.

From underwear and socks to loungewear, sleepwear, outerwear, and activewear, the range has got you covered from head to toe in the comfiest and most eco-friendly way.

Here are the best bras and undies for postpartum…

Bras and undies for postpartum

Comfy undies

For everyday undies in the fourth trimester, you can’t go past the Classic Bikini. This is one of Boody’s most popular items, and easy to see why. The undies are seamless, with a soft-ribbed waistband that sits just right on your mid-rise, providing moderate to full coverage.

As well as making you feel good, these breathable bamboo undies come in nine classic colours, so you can choose the ones that suit your personality and outfit.

Everyday bra

Now, let’s move on to the Boody Shaper Crop Bra. This bra is a total game-changer for new mums. It’s made with soft ribbing, so it’s really comfortable, and it doesn’t have any padding, clips or wires to hassle with – plus wires aren’t advised for pregnant and breastfeeding mums.

It’s all about simplicity and support: the fabric straps are wide and won’t dig into your shoulders, and the pull-on style has a seam free design. Moulding to your skin, the crop is breathable and naturally eco-friendly.

Period & leak-proof undies

And for those times when leaks happen (it’s totally normal as your body adjusts to the postpartum period), Period & Leak Proof Undies are your go to. They come in three options: Full Brief, Light or Moderate, to cover your body’s needs whether you have your period or light bladder leakage; and you have a great range of colours to choose from.

These bad gals are designed to look and feel just like regular underwear but with extra protection, including natural odour control. They’re perfect for postpartum leaks and light to moderate period days – equivalent to two tampons or two pads.  And guess what? They’re made with bamboo fabric too, so they’re comfy, breathable, and sustainable. You can feel good about rocking them all day long.
