Research findings support the use of the over the bump range to reduce pain and discomfort in both the lower back and pelvic region as well as reducing the swelling and discomfort associated with varicose veins and vulva varicosities. The SRC pregnancy range also provides constant medical grade compression (4-15mmHg), activating muscles, reducing swelling and muscle fatigue and encouraging core stability. The SRC range is perfect for day to day wear, active wear and has been approved as a safe for sleeping in as well.

Specially designed by women for women, our postpartum compression garments are crafted to provide support and flexibility for recovering mums without any feeling of restriction. Using smooth, breathable, anti-chafing fabrics, they are designed for prolonged wear without causing irritation, ensuring comfort throughout the day.

Both the shell and the lining of our  SRC Recovery garments are also made of 80% polyamide and 20% elastane. With uniquely milled, high-quality fabrics,  you can rest assured that they maintain their elasticity and shape even after multiple wears and washes. With this True Cross Compression Technology, each layer of fabric is cut differently, providing consistent and reliable compression during any activity so you never lose the support you need during recovery.

Over the Bump or Under the Bump?

Over the bump products do not have any compression over the belly, however, some women prefer to be fully covered to achieve the feeling of extra support. Both styles provide the exact same level of compression and it is up to the individual on what style they would prefer. Here’s our rule of thumb:

Under the Bump:

• If you don’t want to cover your belly
• If your skin can feel sensitive and itchy
• If you feel hot or live in warmer climates

Over the Bump:

• If you want to cover the bump
• If you like the feeling of extra support without compressing the bump

This is a question we get asked a lot by women wondering which length and style (Over the Bump or Under the Bump) will be the best fit for their needs. Each garment has very slight variations and more than anything else, it comes down to personal preference for each customer.

• Full length leggings provide the best venous return and are a fashion staple that can be worn like any other pair of black leggings. However, pregnancy leggings may not be preferable for women who live in warmer climates and are also going to be slightly more difficult to put on than our shorter styles.
• Regular (knee-length) Shorts can be worn like bike shorts as both an undergarment and outerwear. They provide a slightly better venous return than our Mini length.
• Lots of women prefer the Pregnancy Shorts Mini because they fit perfectly under shorter dresses and are great for hotter climates. They are also the easiest to put on.
