    Product Description

    The initial weeks of motherhood are an extraordinary yet challenging time in your life. While you cherish precious moments with your newborn, the aftermath of childbirth, whether through C-Section or perineal trauma, can bring discomfort and pain, hindering your ability to fully embrace your role. Simple tasks like lifting, feeding, and bathing become more taxing under these circumstances. It's crucial to prioritize your own well-being to ensure you're equipped to provide the best care for your baby.

    The creation of SRC Health Recovery Shorts in Mini Length represents a blend of expertise and careful consideration. Collaborating with leading obstetricians, gynaecologists, women's health physiotherapists, and midwives, SRC has developed a range of products aimed at supporting your body during pregnancy and expediting postpartum recovery.

    The SRC Recovery Shorts feature distinct panels tailored to address various areas affected by pregnancy:

    • Back Panel: Provides support from T2 (upper back between the shoulders) down to L5 (lower back above the coccyx).
    • Abdominal Panel: Aids in recovering from muscle separation (DRAM).
    • Gusset Panel: Offers support from front to back following vaginal birth with perineal trauma/stitches or a C-section.
    • Discreet and Comfortable

    Designed to feel like a second skin, these shorts offer discreet support under clothing. Made from breathable materials with odour-eliminating properties, they provide comfort throughout the day and with flatlock seams, they prevent irritation of wounds.

Best shorts ever

*From SRC Health Australia*
I purchased this mini shorts after reading so many great reviews about it. It is indeed doing what it promises. I have been an active person before and throughout my pregnancy (working out 4x a week till 37w!).
However on day 3 after giving birth, I had upper back pain due to lack of support and incorrect posture when carrying baby. After wearing this shorts for a day, it just give me instant relieve and the pain just went away like that.
Apart from that, the shorts also support my uterus whenever I breathe. Otherwise it feels like the layer of skin detached ftom you (if you know you know!)
I highly recommend investing in a pair for better recovery. I’m going to order my 2nd pair in short length.

Love the support from the shorts, almost instant back pain relief and my tummy looks like it’s getting smaller every day (post c section)

So comfy around thighs and back!

*From SRC Health Australia*
I purchased the mini version of the recovery shorts and they are great!! Feel very supported especially my back which was causing me distress when I went on longer walks. They’re also not tight around the thighs which is awesome because that’s the most unflattering part in normal shorts! I enjoy putting them on and feeling a bit more like my old self! I’m still
Wearing them 12 weeks post partum

Great product- would miss it

*From SRC Health Australia*
Src recovery shorts give me a lot of stability, improve core stabilisation and they feel comfortable. They also give a great support to the pelvic floor, even when having a descending of the pelvic floor.

Supportive

*From SRC Health Australia*

5 days after c section birth and put my Mini shorts on. Super hard to get on at first (def get someone to help) but can see they are going to be great and have loosened a little as the day has gone on.

The pic is 7 days pp, haven’t had any back pain which I’m sure is due to the support and have now got the knack of pulling them up myself

Great recovery shorts

*From SRC Health Australia*
Excellent product. I’ve started wearing the shorts since 3 weeks. Very supportive and comfortable

Great support!

*From SRC Health Australia*
I've purchased the recovery shorts mini based on the recommendation of my physio. I wear them for exercising and during physio sessions for diastasis recti (abdominal muscle separation). At first it's a bit hard to get in them but once you get the hang of it, it's fine and they provide great support!

So comfortable!

*From SRC Health Australia*
I absolutely love wearing these shorts. When I tried them on when first home from the hospital they didn’t fit over my thighs, I didn’t realise how much swelling I had from my emergency c-section. Luckily I tried again a week later and now I don’t want to take them off :)

Best decision

*From SRC Health Australia*
My physio recommended these shorts after discovering my significant ab separation and in two weeks I can see a big difference already. Super comfortable and can wear for hours on end. Definitely recommend

Excellent - Buying a second pair

*From SRC Health Australia*
The SRC recovery shorts have been wonderful, I’ve worn them almost everyday post birth, they have really helped support my pelvic floor and reduce the dragging or heaviness sensation. I’ll be recommending these to all my pregnant friends and am just about to buy a second pair.

Must have post partum

*From SRC Health Australia*
2 weeks postpartum and I live in these shorts - only taking them off to wash them and I put them straight back on!
The most comfortable material with excellent wuality and looks good enough to wear out or discreet enough to wear under things. My GP commented how everything is recovering nicely and I feel like wearing these shorts every day has really helped the process along.

The process to claim these on my private health insurance was really easy with the form that was provided by SRC. I feel really great wearing them and I’m really glad I bought these at the recommendation of friends who also loved them in their postpartum journeys.

Great Recovery Shorts

*From SRC Health Australia*
I wore this 5 days after my C Section and it gave me so much support. Before putting it on my core was wrecked so getting up was an actual job for me. Things like going to the toilet and even breathing was a challenge those 1st couple of days. After putting it on the relief I had… I first started wearing it during the day only for a few days then moved to wearing it to sleep as well. Takes a bit of practice putting it on but you get use to it. I’m usually a size AU 12 - 14 so Large was perfect. It’s very tight when u first wear it but the good kind. Holds everything without feeling like u can’t breathe. Very comfortable and breathable under clothing. I wish I wore it with my first pregnancy. Overall I’d say its a MUST for postpartum recovery and worth every cent. Also I live outside Australia so I was pleasantly surprised at how fast this shipped to me.

Amazing!

*From SRC Health Australia*
I purchased the recovery shorts for post C-Section.
They are nice and firm and give the best support!
I feel so supported and more confident moving around post surgery.
I also have abdominal separation and so far the tights have helped with the healing process.
The mini size is great as they can be worn under anything- shorts, pants and dresses.
Picture is the length of mini, I am 153cm tall and 2 weeks postpartum.

The most supportive shorts

*From SRC Health Australia*
I started wearing these on day 2 after delivery. I wore these every day for the first 6 weeks, not only did they help with eliminating all the fluid post birth, but it helped support my pelvic floor when it felt a little weak and allowed me to feel as strong as I did pre-pregnancy. I would recommend these shorts to every single person.
