Complete 5-step postpartum recovery regimen

Safe for vaginal birth & c-section recovery

The Postpartum Recovery Kit has everything for the fourth trimester: the peri bottle, foam, ice pads, and disposable undies. Stock it before the birth, because you won't be in any shape to shop after.

  • 1 × Upside Down Peri Bottle
  • 4 × Disposable High Waist Underwear

    Nobody puts this on the registry. They should.

    Every baby shower has nappies, onesies, and tiny socks. Almost none of them have what the person who just gave birth actually needs. This kit fixes that.

    The fourth trimester nobody prepares you for

    Australia's antenatal classes do a thorough job of preparing you for birth. What they spend significantly less time on is what happens to your body in the days, weeks, and months after birth, the fourth trimester. The bleeding. The soreness. The first time you go to the toilet postpartum. The recovery that nobody talks about loudly enough.

    The Frida Mom Postpartum Recovery Kit contains everything you need for that period, not one or two items, but the complete five-step regimen that addresses every stage of immediate postpartum recovery. Cleanse, wear, cool, absorb, soothe. In that order, every bathroom trip, for as long as you need it.

    Pack it before your due date. Keep it in your hospital bag. Set it up on the toilet tank when you get home. You will use every single item in it.

    How to set up and use your postpartum recovery kit

    • BEFORE BIRTH

    • AT THE HOSPITAL - FIRST 24 to 48 HOURS

    • AT HOME FOR ONGOING RECOVERY

    For every kind of birth. For every kind of recovery.

    • VAGINAL BIRTH RECOVERY

      The full kit addresses every aspect of perineal recovery, cleansing with the peri bottle, cold relief with the ice pads, soothing with the foam and liners, and comfort with the disposable underwear. The complete protocol for the most common postpartum recovery scenario.

    • C-SECTION RECOVERY

      The high-waist disposable underwear sits above the incision without pressure. The peri bottle, foam, and liners address postpartum bleeding and hygiene. The caddy keeps everything organised during a recovery that limits mobility significantly.

    • HOSPITAL BAG ESSENTIAL

      Everything you need from the first postpartum bathroom trip is in this one kit. Pack it before your due date, you won't be thinking clearly enough to assemble this yourself in the days before or after birth.

    • BABY SHOWER OR REGISTRY GIFT

      The most useful gift any expecting mum can receive and the one almost nobody puts on their registry because nobody told them they needed it. The person who gives this gift will be remembered fondly for years. Possibly forever.

    The gift every new Aussie mum actually needs

    Everyone buys for the baby. Nobody buys for the mum. The Frida Mom Postpartum Recovery Kit is the baby shower gift that will actually be used, starting the day after birth and continuing for weeks. It requires no assembly, no explanation, and no guessing. Just pack it and it's done.

    If you're buying for someone else, let them know to pack it in their hospital bag before their due date. Everything they need for the first bathroom trip after birth is in there, they'll be genuinely grateful you thought of it.

    Questions? We've got answers.

    What's included in the Frida Mom Postpartum Recovery Kit?

    The kit includes: 1 Upside Down Peri Bottle, 4 Disposable High Waist Underwear, 4 Instant Ice Maxi Pads, 24 Perineal Cooling Pad Liners (witch hazel), 1 Perineal Healing Foam (150ml), and 1 toilet-top storage caddy. Together these cover all five steps of the Frida Mom postpartum recovery regimen.

    When should I start using the postpartum recovery kit?

    From your very first bathroom trip after birth, whether you're still in hospital or at home. The earlier you start the recovery regimen, the more comfortable the first days will be. Pack the kit in your hospital bag before your due date so it's ready to go immediately.

    Is this kit suitable after a c-section?

    Yes. The high-waist disposable underwear is specifically designed to sit above a c-section incision without pressure or friction on the scar. The peri bottle, foam, and liners address postpartum bleeding and hygiene regardless of birth type. The caddy keeps everything within reach during the limited-mobility early recovery period.

    Will the kit last for the full postpartum recovery period?

    The kit is designed to cover the most critical first days of recovery, particularly the first two to five days when bleeding, swelling, and discomfort are most intense. Most mums find they need additional ice pads, underwear, and liners for weeks two through four. The good news is every item is sold separately so you can top up exactly what you need.

    Is this a good baby shower gift?

    It's one of the best. Most baby shower gifts are for the baby, nappies, onesies, toys. This is one of the few gifts that's entirely for the person who just gave birth, addressing real physical recovery needs that are almost never talked about before birth. It's practical, thoughtful, and will be used from day one. The person who receives it will absolutely tell you about it later.

    Do I need anything else for postpartum recovery that's not in this kit?

    The kit covers the core five-step perineal and bathroom recovery regimen. You'll also want additional maxi pads (the kit includes ice pads but not standard postpartum pads), more disposable underwear for weeks two through four, and any pain relief recommended by your midwife or doctor. The Frida Mom range also includes maternity pads and additional underwear packs available separately.

    Where can I buy the Frida Mom Postpartum Recovery Kit in Australia?

    The full kit is available online at fridaaustralia.com.au with fast shipping across Australia. It's also stocked at selected Australian retailers including Baby Bunting. We recommend buying it at least four to six weeks before your due date, don't leave it to the last minute.
