Product Description

Details

The early days after birth can bring a lot of tenderness and healing. The Sleep Store Postpartum Cooling Maxi Pads are designed to provide simple, soothing relief when you need it most. Combining instant cooling therapy with an absorbent maternity pad, these clever 2-in-1 pads offer comfort and practicality during postpartum recovery.

There’s no need to freeze or prepare them in advance. Simply fold and pop the pad to activate the cooling sensation inside. The gentle cooling effect can help soothe common postpartum discomforts such as perineal swelling, stitches, tearing, and haemorrhoids. Each pad provides cooling relief for around 20 minutes, helping to calm and support sensitive areas during those early recovery days.

The generous maxi size (36 × 11 cm) offers reliable coverage and absorbency, making these pads suitable for use immediately after birth. They are easy to use, mess-free, and ideal to keep in your hospital bag or postpartum recovery kit at home.

Cooling therapy is typically recommended every four hours for comfort and swelling support. For best results, change your pad regularly and alternate with our popular Disposable Postpartum & Maternity Underwear or a standard non-cooling maternity pad as needed.

Thoughtfully designed for real postpartum needs, these pads offer gentle comfort and convenience during a time when even small relief can make a big difference.

KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
