Everything your postpartum body needs, below the belt — in one complete recovery set.

No two birth experiences are alike, but the need for real, targeted postpartum recovery is universal. Whether you're navigating a vaginal delivery or c-section healing, Nyssa's Classic Black Below-the-Belt Recovery Set puts the right tools in your hands from the moment you need them most.

What's included:

FourthWear Postpartum Recovery Underwear Built different from day one — FourthWear is the only postpartum underwear with a dual-layer, 360° pocket system that keeps ice or heat therapy right where your recovering body needs it: between the legs, over the c-section incision site, or across the lower back. Tuck a pad inside the pocket alongside your ice or heat pack to handle postpartum bleeding and therapy at the same time, without lifting a finger. A gentle compression fit keeps you feeling held together during those early tender days, while the sleek, seamless silhouette stays completely invisible under any outfit.

Between Legs Perineal Ice/Heat Pack Precision-designed to nestle between the legs for focused perineal pain relief, this low-profile pack slots right into the FourthWear pocket — no holding, no adjusting. Add a pad on the inside of the underwear to tackle postpartum bleeding at the same time, and you've got a fully hands-free recovery system working quietly under your clothes.

Uterine Reusable Ice/Heat Pack Crafted to flex and conform to your body, this pack zeroes in on postpartum uterine cramping and c-section incision recovery — delivering consistent, effective relief that moves with you through those early weeks.

A thoughtful, complete postpartum gift set for new moms — designed to address every aspect of below-the-belt recovery, from perineal healing and c-section recovery to postpartum bleeding and uterine cramping. Timeless Classic Black.

why we love it

Birth can be hard on your bits.

That’s why it’s so important to treat our tenderest parts to some real TLC. Designed for both caesarean and vaginal recoveries, this set contains Nyssa's four essential below-the-belt postpartum recovery products: our FourthWear Postpartum Recovery Underwear and Reusable Uterine and Between Legs Ice/Heat Packs. Together they’ll ensure your bits are healing and feeling their best.

FAQs

Need support? Just ask us.

Is FourthWear Underwear for caesarean or vaginal birth recoveries?

We often don’t know exactly how our birth journey will shape up, no matter what our plans are. FourthWear Postpartum Recovery Underwear is designed specifically to provide ultimate comfort for both caesarean and vaginal birth recoveries.

For vaginal recoveries, FourthWear provides a widened gusset to accommodate large postpartum pads and a comfortable high waist that can be folded down to meet the needs of changing bodies. An ice/heat pack (one of Nyssa’s specially contoured packs or one of your own) can be inserted inside the garment and placed between the legs to soothe vaginal and perineal pain, swelling, or sutures. Another pack may be placed over the abdomen or in the back to ease pain related to postpartum cramping and any other discomfort that stems from delivery.

For caesarean recoveries, FourthWear provides the same functionality along with a smooth, soft fabric over the incision area. Ice/heat packs may be placed over the site of an incision to help reduce pain and discomfort and to facilitate healing of the incision area.

Which size of FourthWear Underwear is right for me?

Figuring out the right size for your changing body might seem a daunting task. We make FourthWear Underwear with super soft, incredibly stretchy fabric that flexes and adapts to your changing figure to make it a bit easier. Whichever size you wear in maternity clothing can translate to the perfect underwear size. We recommend choosing the smaller size if you are in-between sizes. For example, if you wear a large in maternity clothing, we recommend purchasing the M/L, whereas if your maternity size is XL, then our L/XL would likely be the better fit. Importantly, the seamless high-waist can be rolled down to maintain a tighter fit as your body changes after giving birth.

Everybody’s body is different. We all gain and lose weight throughout the birth and recovery process at different rates. For the majority of people, weight gain and loss will happen mostly in the belly region and along the hips. FourthWear Underwear is designed to change with your body; however, if a significant amount of weight is gained or lost (+80lbs), you may need to purchase an additional size.

When should I use ice and when should I use heat?

Ice therapy is the traditional weapon of choice for dealing with soft tissue injuries that involve swelling. Cold therapy, also called cryotherapy, reduces blood flow, which mitigates pain-causing inflammation and swelling. This makes ice a useful tool for everyday pain management and application wherever there is swelling (eg: incision site, chafed nipples). Heat, on the other hand, opens vessels to increase blood flow, making its application critical for alleviating muscle pain and removing blockages caused by clogged milk ducts.

Are the materials and cooling agents in the ice/heat pack safe?

The exterior of our ice/heat packs is made of an FDA-approved knitted plastic/fabric composite. The cooling agent is comprised of naturally derived ingredients: Glycerine, Water, and Sodium Polymer. These ingredients are all non-toxic and approved by the FDA.
