The complete postpartum recovery kit — packed in a bag you'll carry long after the Fourth Trimester.

Congratulations on your new arrival. Now it's time to take care of you. Nyssa's Essential Postpartum Kit brings together everything you need for a comfortable, supported postpartum recovery — all packed inside our iconic Mother Bag, the vegan leather diaper bag designed to be your go-to companion for every stage of motherhood.

Designed by mothers who have lived the postpartum experience firsthand, every item in this kit was chosen because women deserve recovery solutions made specifically for their bodies.

What's inside:

The Mother Bag — Lush Vegan Leather Diaper Bag Mama's got a brand new bag. Equal parts stylish and seriously functional, the Mother Bag is built for real life with multiple pockets and compartments for everything from diapers, wipes, snacks, and toys to postpartum essentials — and yes, even your laptop. Insulated pockets keep bottles warm or cold, easy-clean fabric handles whatever life throws at you, and adjustable straps let you wear it as a backpack, shoulder bag, or tote — whatever the day calls for. Includes a stylish matching changing pad, wet/dry bag, and stroller straps.

FourthWear Postpartum Recovery Underwear The first postpartum underwear with a dual-layer, 360° pocket system designed to hold ice or heat therapy between the legs, at the c-section incision site, and across the lower back. The pocket is also designed to hold a pad on the inside — so you can manage postpartum bleeding and apply cold or heat therapy at the same time, completely hands-free. Gentle compression keeps you feeling snug and supported through every stage of healing.

FourthWear Postpartum Recovery Bralette Soft, supportive, and designed for postpartum and breastfeeding bodies — because recovery doesn't stop at the waist.

Between Legs Perineal Ice/Heat Pack Uniquely contoured for targeted perineal pain relief, this lightweight pack fits discreetly into the FourthWear pocket. Pair it with one of the included postpartum pads inside the underwear for simultaneous bleeding protection and hands-free cold or heat therapy.

Uterine Reusable Ice/Heat Pack Flexible and body-conforming for targeted relief from postpartum uterine cramping and c-section incision healing.

Uterine Instant Heat Patches (1 box) On-the-go uterine cramp relief with no microwave, cords, or prep needed — perfect for those early weeks when you're healing on the move.

Peri Bottle A postpartum essential for gentle, comfortable perineal cleansing after vaginal delivery.

Reusable Breast Ice & Heat Therapy Packs Targeted relief for engorgement, mastitis, and the everyday discomforts of breastfeeding.

Organic Cotton Cover Postpartum Pads (8-pack) Soft, breathable, and gentle on sensitive postpartum skin — designed to pair seamlessly with FourthWear underwear for full below-the-belt protection.

Classic Black Essential Postpartum Kit - Nyssa
why we love it

The most meaningful way to say "I care for YOU.”

When everyone's attention turns to soothing and holding baby, who's doing the same for mom?

We are.

You are.

Our Essential Postpartum Kit contains Nyssa's eight essential postpartum recovery products. Together, they give the wearer cooling comfort or soothing heat in all of the places most affected by birth and the bodily changes that occur during the Fourth Trimester.

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.

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.

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.
Which size of FourthWear Bralette is right for me?
FourthWear Bralette is made of highly adaptive and stretchy fabric. The seamless, criss-cross style is intentional so that the cups comfortably conform to your ever-changing postpartum breast and chest size and fullness. The most important variable to get right for your body is the band size. Please refer to the size chart to see the band measurement range for each size. We recommend selecting a size with a band measurement that is comparable to your most comfortable First & Second Trimester bra.

If you still have questions about your specific sizing needs, please reach out to our customer support team at hello@nyssacare.com for specific information on your individual question.
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.
Can the pack be used directly on the skin?
Yes. However, placing any ice/heat pack directly on the skin can cause tissue damage, particularly for sensitive areas such as the perineum. For hot therapy specifically, please make sure that you safely and thoroughly test the temperature of your pack prior to placing it directly onto your skin.
