Frida Mom Disposable High Waist Underwear

Frida Mom Disposable High Waist Underwear

The Frida Mom Disposable High Waist Underwear are soft, stretchy recovery underwear designed to sit high on the abdomen and help keep the waistband away from a c-section incision. Made specifically for the postpartum body, they provide comfortable coverage while securely holding maternity pads, cooling liners and Instant Ice Maxi Pads in place.

Made from breathable microfiber and spandex rather than traditional hospital mesh, these high waist postpartum underwear are seamless, tagless, latex-free and completely opaque. Four-way stretch accommodates your changing post-birth body without restrictive elastic digging into your abdomen.

Each pack contains 8 disposable high waist briefs in Medium/Large, with a stretchy waistband designed to fit approximately 71cm to 107cm (28 to 42 inches). They’re suitable following both vaginal and caesarean birth, but the high-rise design makes these the Frida Mom underwear we’d choose when keeping the waistband comfortably above a c-section incision is the priority.

High Waist Postpartum Underwear Designed with C-Section Recovery in Mind

After a caesarean birth, where your underwear waistband sits can make a significant difference to comfort.

A conventional waistband may sit close to the incision area, which can be uncomfortable when the area is tender and healing. The Frida Mom High Waist Underwear has a taller rise designed to sit higher on the abdomen, helping keep the waistband away from the incision area.

The soft, stretchy construction also means there’s no firm conventional elastic waistband digging into your postpartum belly.

Every body and incision position is different, so always check where the waistband sits on you. It should never rub against or place pressure on your incision. Follow your obstetrician or healthcare professional’s individual advice during c-section recovery.

A More Comfortable Alternative to Hospital Mesh Underwear

Disposable underwear is incredibly practical after having a baby. Traditional hospital-style mesh underwear, however, isn’t exactly known for feeling like your favourite pair of undies.

Frida Mom replaces the fishnet-style mesh with soft microfiber and spandex.

The result is breathable, stretchy and opaque disposable underwear that feels much closer to normal underwear while still giving you the convenience of something you can simply throw away after use.

No washing stained underwear during the first days with your baby. No sacrificing your good underwear to postpartum bleeding. Wear them, change them when required and dispose of them.

Made for Your Changing Post-Birth Body

Your body doesn’t immediately return to its pre-pregnancy shape after your baby is born, nor should your postpartum underwear expect it to.

The Frida Mom Disposable High Waist Underwear uses four-way stretch to accommodate the changing shape of your abdomen during postpartum recovery.

The fabric stretches in every direction rather than relying on a tight elastic waistband, helping provide a flexible fit without unnecessary restriction around your abdomen.

This is particularly useful when you’re also wearing a substantial postpartum pad inside the underwear.

Securely Holds Postpartum Pads and Cooling Products

Postpartum underwear needs to do more than simply cover you. It needs to keep your recovery products where they’re supposed to be.

The Frida Mom High Waist Underwear is designed to securely hold maternity pads and other Frida Mom recovery products against the body.

They can be used with:

• Postpartum maternity pads
• Frida Mom Instant Ice Maxi Pads
• Frida Mom Perineal Cooling Pad Liners
• Your preferred postpartum pad and recovery layers

The four-way stretch helps keep everything securely positioned as you sit, stand and move around.

High Waist vs Boyshort: Which Frida Mom Underwear Should You Choose?

Frida Mom offers both Disposable High Waist Underwear and Disposable Boyshort Underwear, but they’re designed with different fit preferences in mind.

Choose the High Waist Underwear if:

• You’re preparing for c-section recovery
• You want the waistband to sit higher on your abdomen
• You want to minimise the chance of a waistband sitting close to an incision
• You prefer high-rise underwear after birth
• You want more coverage across your postpartum belly

Choose the Boyshort Underwear if:

• You prefer a lower-rise boyshort style
• You want full rear coverage with a comfortable boyshort leg opening
• You don’t need or want a particularly high waistband
• You generally prefer the feel of boyleg underwear

Both styles are designed to hold postpartum pads and cooling products securely. The main difference is the cut and where the waistband sits.

For a planned c-section, we’d choose the Frida Mom Disposable High Waist Underwear because keeping the waistband higher and away from the incision is the more important consideration.

Suitable After Vaginal Birth Too

You don’t need to have a c-section to benefit from the High Waist Underwear.

Following a vaginal birth, they provide the same soft stretch, disposable convenience and secure hold for maternity pads, cooling liners and Instant Ice Maxi Pads.

The higher rise may also simply be more comfortable if that’s the style of underwear you normally prefer.

If you’ve experienced tearing, stitches or an episiotomy, follow the postpartum care instructions provided by your midwife or healthcare professional.

One Size Medium/Large

The Frida Mom Disposable High Waist Underwear comes in one stretchy Medium/Large size.

The waistband stretches from approximately 71cm to 107cm (28 to 42 inches).

Your postpartum measurements may be quite different from your normal clothing size, so we recommend measuring your actual body rather than relying solely on your usual Australian dress size.

Frida Mom High Waist Underwear Size Guide

How to Measure for the Best Postpartum Fit

Measure around your body where the high waistband will actually sit.

Because these are high-waisted underwear, this will generally be higher on the abdomen, around the belly button area, rather than where the waistband of lower-rise underwear would normally sit.

Remember that your postpartum belly will generally be larger than your usual waist during the early weeks after birth. You’ll also likely be wearing these with a maternity pad or Instant Ice Maxi Pad inside.

Allow yourself some extra room when comparing your measurement with the size chart.

Australian dress sizes are only a guide. Your actual measurement is the more useful number.

Perfect for a C-Section Hospital Bag

If you’re preparing for a planned caesarean birth, high-waisted underwear is something worth organising before you go to hospital.

The Frida Mom High Waist Underwear can be packed alongside your maternity pads and other postpartum essentials so they’re ready when you need them.

Each pack contains 8 disposable pairs.

How many you’ll need will depend on how frequently you change and how long you want to continue using disposable underwear after returning home, so consider having an additional pack ready if you expect to use them beyond your initial hospital stay.

How to Wear Frida Mom Disposable High Waist Underwear

1. Prepare your recovery layers. Place your maternity pad, Instant Ice Maxi Pad or other recovery products securely inside the underwear.
2. Pull the underwear on gently. Allow the four-way stretch fabric to expand naturally rather than pulling aggressively on the waistband.
3. Position the high waist. Allow the waistband to settle high on your abdomen.
4. Check the incision area. Following a c-section, confirm that the waistband is sitting comfortably above the incision and isn’t rubbing against it.
5. Check your pad position. Make sure your postpartum pad and any cooling layers are sitting securely and comfortably.
6. Change as required. Put on a fresh pair whenever necessary during your postpartum recovery.
7. Dispose after use. Place used underwear in the bin. No washing is required.
