Education is (pelvic) power.
I purchased 2 pairs of the support undies. I am so, so happy with them. I have also loved the pregnancy leggings and postpartum shorts by Everform as well.
With PF damage, I usually wear leggings/bike shorts from the minute I get up to feel supported. I was thinking I’d need to wear bike shorts under any flowy dresses this summer. I can now wear the underwear under my looser clothing and feel supported all day. I’m thrilled that there’s a lovely product, that really works to support women with PF issues. They also look pretty cute on too! Thank you Rosie/Everform
I first heard about Everform when Jo won an Entrepreneur Grant and have followed ever since. Then when she told me the LBL Recovery Brief was coming, I was very excited. From the moment I put them on, I could feel a difference. After three large babies and decades later I still 'suffer', even after several physio programs, the recovery brief provides support I can feel. Thank you for developing such a fantastic product to support women with something no one tells them about prior.
My pelvic floor physio recommended I wear these while returning to running postpartum. I think these could be great pelvic support underwear, but it's so hard to get a good fit that I would actually recommend that anyone considering it purchase only if they are able to try on in person.
I bought size L based on my measurements, and they're not just one size off, they're possibly two or three sizes off. I can get them on (with the sound of a couple threads breaking), but can only wear for a minute or so before they start rolling down. There's no way I could wear these for the recommended 8 hours. It's not a great feeling postpartum to not be able to wear clothes that should, in theory, be able to fit. I had a vaginal delivery and I can't imagine attempting to get these on if I'd had a c-section.
Shipping outside of Australia is expensive, and customer service has not responded to my inquiry about an exchange yet (sent 5 days ago.) I really want to like this, but for the cost, the sizing is a fiction, shipping expensive, and customer service lacking. To anyone considering, I recommend looking at support brands that are locally available.
The gusset sits perfectly - snug enough to afford confidence, yet so comfortable that I won't be returning to normal knickers. I love the attention to detail in design elements like the placement of the seams so as to avoid those in my leggings & shorts.
Most mums I know have visited the wriggly bum section of the pharmacy. These undies don't just stop leakage of pee, poo & farts, compliment the magic leggings & shorts in their role of minimising pain & swelling, but they seem to trap worm eggs too!
