These briefs were a comfortable material with a stretchy lace top. Great for pregnancy and I plan to use them during post partum too.

These are soft but eventually become uncomfortable for me. The elastic around the leg area becomes tight and needs adjusting which is really annoying. I got these for my c-section incision and they do sit nicely but there is no support. I could wear these around but they’re not comfortable to sleep in.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for your feedback! While this style is great to where postpartum it is not designed to provide compression or support. Thank you again for your feedback!

My mom purchased those when I was pregnant the first time in a nursery pack and I absolutely love them. I’m pregnant again and I ask her to buy me two more packs of these because they are the most comfortable and comfy underwear I’ve ever wore.

Unfortunate very disappointed. I bought this underwear back in 2022….great quality and lasted for two years have seen tears until now….bought a new pair this year….2 packs since I really loved them and they are not the same quality material. Tearing at the lace after wearing ONCE. I’m paying the same price for a lower quality underwear I use to get. Unfortunately will not buy again. Unfortunate that it changed. Many of the reviews I saw are correct. At least make it cheaper if you’re going to make the product cheaper because as a former customer I can tell the difference. This underwear had great potential to be the best underwear beyond pregnancy and postpartum.

These were perfect for my post C-section recovery. I tried a couple others and the bands were too harsh on my skin or the cut wasn’t comfortable but these truly are perfect.

This was a disappointing experience. I have ordered before when I had my first child and I absolutely loved the fit and quality of the underwear from here. This time around, the stitching was all messed up. It looked as if I may have received a bad batch. Most of the panties once washed and worn for the first time, had holes. I really wanted to like these panties, but the good material and quality was not there.

They roll down and do not stay put! I had a c section and the band would roll right into my incision making them impossible to wear
1 reply from kindred bravely team team - 10 months ago
We are so sorry to hear this happened! The band rolling could be a sign that the size you ordered is too small and you may need a larger size. We recommend ordering based on your current hip measurements and trying the underwear on to confirm the fit before they are needed. Wishing you a smooth and healthy recovery!

These made me feel beautiful and human again after my c-section. They're soft and beautiful, and they don't rub on the scar. The lace wears out quickly, but they last at least through the healing period.

Lace is itchy, otherwise great fit. If you have any sensory sensitivities with clothing these are not for you. They would be perfect without this edging!

Very disappointed. Haven't worn yet, but after washing once on delicate setting so I could pack my hospital bag they are already fraying and falling apart along the top. Not even close to the quality I'd expect from this company and of course it's an item that can't be returned.

Best for Hysterectomy! Wish I’d had PP
5 out of 5 stars
TiaM - 1 year ago
originally posted on Kindred Bravely
I am normally a 2x in underwear. I had a hysterectomy and these ended up being the most comfortable underwear for my recovery. The crotch of these are cut at least 2x wider than any underwear I own. This has resulted in the best fit of my life - recovery pads don’t hang over the edges & I no longer experience chafing/raw skin because the fabric covers me completely! The fabric is soft but has not pilled after one month of use and washing. I always wash in a mesh bag with my regular laundry. These were a splurge, but I will buy more when they are on sale!

Runs big-size down but worth it!!

I absolutely loved the feel of these post-partum panties but I ordered a large to begin with. They were way too big and sagged on me, even though I carry my weight in my hips and legs during pregnancy. For reference, I am 5'5" and got up to 198lbs right before delivery. I read through a bunch or reviews and decided on ordering the Large. I should have ordered the medium! The large was too big and drooped in a really uncomfortable and unflattering way! Props to Kindred Bravely, though, because I reached out to them and let them know about the sizing problem. They don't allow returns for underwear, which I think is awesome because who wants to wear someone else's worn underwear??!? They immediately resolved the issue and sent me Mediums at no cost to me. The medium panties fit perfectly right after delivery and helped me feel good about myself even though I was wearing pads the size of my forearm (which these fit perfectly!! I'm 2 months post partum and still wear these everyday while I'm losing my baby weight. They are comfortable and so soft! My only gripe is that the lace seems to shrivel up and attract all the fuzzies floating around in the dryer, but the softness of the rest of the panties makes up for that. If you're on the fence about these, I would get them for sure but size down!

These are comfy for sure but unfortunately won't last long, the lace unravels in the first wash I can't imagine them withstanding many more washes. I got size medium and I'm pregnant and they fit and that would be my pre pregnancy size also, I'm 39 weeks.

I first started using these after I had my daughter and instantly fell in love! The fabric is absolutely amazing!!!! It is soooo soft, stretchy, and breathable!!! The fit is perfect; high rise and full seat coverage. I could not more highly recommend these undies! 3 years postpartum and several orders later, these are still my go-tos!
