SRC Health C-Section Recovery Mini Shorts – Gentle Support for Your Postpartum Journey

Recovering from a C-section or vaginal birth? Whether you’re dealing with tender scars, pelvic floor weakness, or abdominal separation, your body deserves thoughtful, effective support. The SRC Health C-Section Recovery Mini Shorts offer all the benefits of our full-length recovery range but in a lighter, shorter style—perfect for warmer days or layering comfortably under your everyday clothes.

Developed with advice from leading obstetricians and women’s health physiotherapists, these mini shorts provide medical-grade compression exactly where you need it—supporting your core, protecting your incision, and helping you move with confidence as you care for your newborn.

Targeted Support Made Simple

The patented Anatomical Support Panels (ASP) in these shorts deliver consistent, soothing compression to key postpartum areas:

Protect and support your C-section and perineal wounds
Aid healing of abdominal muscle separation (Diastasis Recti / DRAM)
Ease pelvic floor weakness and lower back discomfort
Reduce swelling and help improve your mobility

This gentle compression encourages your muscles to engage, reduces fatigue, and makes everyday tasks—like feeding, lifting, and bathing your baby—more manageable.

Comfort You Can Count On

Made from breathable, anti-chafe fabric, the SRC Mini Shorts feel soft on delicate skin and move with you throughout the day:

Low-profile waistband – sits comfortably below your scar or belly without digging in
Flatlock seams – no rubbing, irritation, or pressure on scars
No zips, buttons or Velcro – nothing to press or irritate your healing body
Lightweight and discreet – easy to wear under clothes or on their own for active recovery
Practical side pockets – keep small essentials within reach

Whether you’re resting or on the move, these shorts offer comfort and confidence in every step.

Getting the Perfect Fit

To get the most from your SRC Mini Shorts, it’s important to find the right size. Compression only works if it fits properly—too loose won’t support, too tight might feel uncomfortable.

Stand tall with your heels together
Wrap a tape measure around the widest part of your hips and bottom
Keep the tape snug but not tight, and level all the way around
Ask someone to help you for the best accuracy
If you’re between sizes, pick the smaller for firmer support

You can measure from 36 weeks pregnant, and start wearing the shorts as soon as you feel ready after birth.

From soothing your C-section scar to helping rebuild your core, the SRC Health C-Section Recovery Mini Shorts offer practical, everyday support designed with your healing in mind. Soft, effective, and comfortable—they’re an essential part of your postpartum care.

FAQs

What are SRC C-Section Recovery Mini Shorts used for?

SRC C-Section Recovery Mini Shorts are designed for postpartum support, helping new mums recover from C-section surgery, abdominal separation (diastasis recti), and pelvic floor weakness with medical-grade compression.

Can I wear these compression shorts after a vaginal birth?

Yes, while specially made for C-section recovery, these postpartum compression shorts also support women after vaginal delivery by reducing pelvic pain, swelling, and aiding core stability.

How soon after birth can I start wearing the mini shorts?

You can start wearing SRC Recovery Mini Shorts as soon as it’s comfortable after delivery, usually from day one postpartum. Always consult your healthcare provider if unsure.

How do I choose the right size if I’m measuring before birth?
If you’re carrying extra fluid late in pregnancy, fall between sizes or are just into a size, we recommend sizing down. Even if you’re quite swollen, choosing the smaller size will give you the best fit once postpartum swelling reduces. The garment may take 5–10 days to feel fully comfortable, but the fit will improve as swelling reduces.
You can wear your Recovery Garment for up to 12 hours a day and easily under everyday clothing. For best results, start wearing them from day 1 postpartum (C-section or vaginal birth), unless advised otherwise. The first 6 weeks are critical for healing, so consistent daily wear is recommended, continue this for the first 3-4 months postpartum.

How do these mini shorts help with diastasis recti?

The anatomical support panels in SRC shorts apply targeted compression to gently support and realign abdominal muscles, aiding in the recovery from diastasis recti (abdominal separation).

Are the SRC Recovery Mini Shorts comfortable for daily wear?

Yes, these C-section recovery shorts are made from breathable, anti-chafe fabric, with no zips or Velcro, offering all-day comfort under clothes or as activewear.
