Postpartum Recovery Fajas

When can I start wearing a postpartum faja?

Most women can begin wearing postpartum compression a few days after delivery, once cleared by their doctor. After a vaginal birth, you may start sooner; after a C-section, your doctor will typically wait until the incision has begun healing. Always get medical clearance first.

Can I wear postpartum shapewear while breastfeeding?

Yes — choose styles with open-bust designs or stretchy upper panels that allow easy breastfeeding access. Avoid garments that compress the breasts or restrict milk flow. Our postpartum collection includes nursing-friendly options.

How long should I wear postpartum compression?

Most women wear postpartum shapewear for 6 to 12 weeks, starting with 6-8 hours per day and increasing gradually as comfortable. The exact duration depends on your delivery type, recovery progress, and your doctor's recommendations.

What size should I order during postpartum?

Measure your current postpartum waist and hips — not pre-pregnancy size. Many women order a size larger than expected to start, since the body is still recovering. As you progress, you can size down or use a different garment as your shape changes.

Is it safe to wear a faja after a C-section?

Yes, with your doctor's approval. C-section recovery fajas are designed with gentle compression and soft linings that don't irritate the incision. Wait until your doctor clears you for compression — typically once the incision has begun closing properly.
