First Days Maternity Instant Perineal Cold Packs - Up to 20mins Cooling Effect - Absorbent, Disposable with Soft Cotton Cover - Ideal Hospital Bag Maternity Essentials (Pack of 6)

These are genius. After episiotomy stitches these cold pads were the only reason I could sit comfortably! They are not very absorbent so I suggest only wearing for 20-30 mins when they are at their coldest and then swapping out for a regular pad. However they are so cold and soothing, plus it helps that they are considerably cheaper than some of the key name brands on the high street.

This provides such nice relief after birth and made me feel like I was treating myself. They're really thick and long so adds nice cushion down there. Can be difficult to snap the cold on and you can feel the cold liquid move around but that helped distract me from the pain.

When you need a thick pad, but really want to put an ice pack 'down there'- This product has combined both brilliantly!Was in agony and the relief this product provides, its well worth the £75 I spent buying 3 boxes of these. Used them all day and night for about 10 days. Thank you, person who designed and got these made- i was very grateful!!!

I got these for the Mrs. She said they helped a lot and gave lots of relief. They also helped calm swelling and sore areas.They are very easy to use, comfortable against the skin and give good pain relief. Recommended

Bought this for postpartum, however they are cold only for like 10mins, i wouldnt buy them again

Of all the many postpartum aftercare products I was recommended and purchased as a first time mum, these were by far the most effective- an absolute must for anyone who needs some relief after giving birth. Suitable for use even with stitches which is amazing! Not the most absorbent of pads and only last 20 mins in terms of the ice pack itself, but the relief and soothing sensation is so worth it!

I ordered these and after labour I tried them. Couldn’t get them to work. They where very big and bulky and just felt the description of comfort was very wrong. When emailing to send them back and requesting a refund I got a very passive aggressive response. Saying they they never had any issues before. With exhaustion and pain and being a new mum the response wasn’t what I expected and felt it was very unnecessary- they where very bulky so uncomfortable in a already uncomfortable place.This product wasn’t for me. Works for some but I feel the company wasn’t understanding at all and rude.I will say they honoured the refund but I felt they did because they had to as it’s law and stated this in the email that I asked for a refund before the 2 week cut off date.

These where great they stayed cool very for 2hour. Would buy a again.
