Breast Soothers
Breastfeeding should be enjoyable for mother and baby but sometimes blocked milk ducts, mastitis, or engorgement cause pain. Thank goodness for these Breast Soothers! Place them in the fridge or freezer for cooling therapy to reduce swelling and soreness in sensitive breasts. Or place the soothers in hot water to treat mastitis.
The Perineum Care Strip has been designed by a Bella Mama to give instant pain relief from childbirth soreness and stitching. The gel pad is placed in the freezer for two hours and then applied to the affected area. It is non-invasive, drug free and shaped to fit the contours of a woman’s body. It comes with disposable gauze sleeves.
Abdomen Hem It In Post Natal Belly Binders and C-Section Recovery Kits
The Bella Mama Pregnancy and C-Section Support Belt is The No 1. choice for Post Natal Support after both a vaginal or C-Section birth. These bands can also provide support while pregnant and after abdominal surgery. The binders are soft and supportive, made from 100% Cotton materials.
