Postpartum FAQs

This bundle is designed for anyone looking for extra support during postpartum recovery, whether after a vaginal birth or C-section recovery. It combines gentle everyday compression with targeted abdominal and back support, making it suitable for the early weeks after birth and as you gradually return to your normal routine.

Yes. The postpartum underwear is designed to provide gentle everyday compression under your clothing, while the Core Restore Support Band can be worn over it whenever you want additional support. Together they provide layered support for your core, lower back and pelvis without restricting everyday movement.

Yes. The bundle is suitable after both vaginal birth and C-section recovery. The seamless postpartum underwear sits comfortably against your body, while the adjustable support band helps support your stomach after a C-section, lower back and pelvis without placing unnecessary pressure on sensitive areas. Always follow your healthcare professional's advice regarding when to begin wearing compression garments after surgery.

You can start wearing the Core Restore Postpartum Support Belt immediately after birth, as long as it feels comfortable and doesn't cause pressure in your lower abdomen or pelvic floor.

The Postpartum Support Underwear is designed for comfortable everyday wear from the early stages of postpartum recovery. If you've had a C-section or have any concerns about your recovery, follow your healthcare professional's advice.

Wear the products for as long as they feel supportive during your postpartum recovery. We recommend wearing the support belt during everyday activities such as walking, carrying your baby and breastfeeding, when extra core and back support can be helpful. Avoid wearing the belt while lying down or sleeping, and have regular periods without it so your core muscles can work naturally as your body regains strength.

You can find the size guides for both products at the top of this page. If you're purchasing the bundle before giving birth, choose your support belt size based on your pre-pregnancy clothing size. If you're already postpartum, select your belt size using your current waist measurement. The belt is fully adjustable to support you throughout your recovery. If you're between sizes, we generally recommend choosing the larger size. If you need personalised sizing advice, our Customer Care team will be happy to help.

We recommend wearing the Core Restore Postpartum Support Belt during everyday activities such as walking, light exercise, carrying your baby and breastfeeding, as it's easy to develop poor posture during these activities. The Postpartum Support Underwear can be worn comfortably throughout your daily routine. We do not recommend wearing the support belt while lying down or sleeping. It's also a good idea to have periods during the day without the belt, allowing your core muscles to work naturally as your body recovers.

The postpartum underwear can be worn throughout your daily routine but should never feel overly tight or restrictive.

The Core Restore Postpartum Support Belt should be hand washed in cold water and laid flat to dry. The Postpartum Support Underwear can be machine washed on a delicate 40°C cycle with similar colours. Avoid fabric softener, tumble drying and ironing to help keep both products in their best condition.

Many parents experience back pain after a C-section as their body recovers. The Core Restore Postpartum Support Belt helps support your abdomen, lower back and posture during everyday activities, while the Postpartum Support Underwear provides gentle everyday compression. Together, they can help you feel more supported throughout recovery. If your symptoms persist or worsen, consult your healthcare professional for personalised advice.

The Core Restore Support Band provides gentle abdominal support during postpartum recovery and may help you feel more supported if you have diastasis recti (abdominal separation). By supporting your core and encouraging good posture during everyday activities such as lifting, carrying and feeding your baby, it can make movement feel more comfortable.

However, the band is not intended to treat diastasis recti. Recovery is supported by appropriate rehabilitation exercises and guidance from a physiotherapist or healthcare professional, particularly if symptoms persist beyond the first few months after birth.

My favorite must have pregnancy product was my lola&lykke pregnancy support band and now that I have started my postpartum journey for the third time I have been loving their Core Restore band

Myself a mum of six am always putting myself last... I've been suffering with bad back pain ( years of slouching thats pre kids to!) Especially when feeding the babies, I tend to slump forward trying to make their latch perfect and them comfortable but making myself in agony... the band wraps about your body giving you better posture. It basically a big hug for your body.
I've seen a major improvement in my posture which has eased the pain in my back and tummy when feeding, and even my tummy feels tighter and firmer already!
It's so easy to put on and can be hidden under your normal clothes or worn over them.

I wasn't sure whether I would need the belt or whether it would be comfortable to wear, but as soon as I put it on, there were no doubts. It immediately "removed" the tension in the lower back, beautified my postpartum belly, I felt as if I had not given birth! I am satisfied with the effect and the result after using it!

Mun äitiysfysioterapiavastaanotolla tukivyöt on aika yleinen puheenaihe, koska moni asiakas kysyy kannattaako sellainen hankkia ja edistääkö se palautumista? Omien raskauksien jälkeen oon käyttänyt tukivyötä satunnaisesti arjessa ja aluksi pidemmillä lenkeillä sekä kovempien treenien pariin palatessa.

Parhaimmillaan vyö mahdollistaa muuten keskivartalolle liian työläät ja kipua aiheuttavat arkiaskareet pian synnytyksen jälkeen, muistuttaa kannatellun ja kevyen keskivartalon tuen löytämisestä liikkuessa. Bonarina muuten liian piukat juhlamekot ja farkut mahtuu jalkaan jos niille on tarvetta.

Suosittelen tukivyötä jos sille on tarve. Esimerkiksi isompien ja kipua aiheuttavien vatsalihasten erkauman kuntoutusprojektien aikana vyöstä hyötyy suurin osa tällaisista asiakkaista. Jos koet tarvetta tukivyölle niin lolalykke vyöt on ihanan joustavia ja helppokäyttöisiä. Suositus täältä siis näille 🙋🏼‍♀️

I've tried some post C-section belly band but this core restore support band is the best that I've tried on yet. I love that it is super soft and super-elastic that perfectly sits over the abdominal area.

Nach meinem zweiten Kaiserschnitt muss ich es mit der Rückbildung etwas langsamer angehen lassen. Nach meiner ersten Bauchgeburt habe ich die Folgen unterschätzt, wenn man sich zu schnell zurück in den Alltag begibt und habe mich dieses Mal wirklich im Wochenbett geschont. 🙏🏻 Nach nun 6 Wochen habe ich mit leichten sportlichen Übungen angefangen und unterstützend nutze ich seit einiger Zeit den Core Restore Stützgurt von Lola Lykke . 🤗
Dieser gibt der Körpermitte durch eine Kompressurtechnologie die wichtige Stabilisierung , die sie nach einer Geburt braucht und hilft so , dass der Bauch sich schneller zurückbilden kann .😍

It’s going to be 9 weeks post c section tomorrow and this time around I feel much stronger quicker and feel as if my recovery has been quicker too! Having my core supported by this band has really helped. It keeps my posture straight and supports the core muscles so they can heal!

It made it less painful in the early days, especially when I would sneeze or cough. It was also amazing support for the first drive home from the hospital! So although I haven’t lost as much weight as I would like and I have a mummy tummy! I feel stronger everyday!

Sektiosta on 5viikkoa ja olen käyttänyt nyt 4viikon ajan lola&lykke tukivyötä päivittäin lenkkeillessäni. Tukivyön kompressiokiinnitys tukee keskivartaloani ja sektiohaavaani liikkuessa, samalla aktivoiden syviä lihaksiani ja työntäen hellästi vatsalihaksiani takaisin yhteen.

Tukivyön kaksiosainen kiinnitys on mahdollistanut paremman istuvuuden ja tuen, sillä yläkroppani palautuu nopeammin kuin alavatsani. Näin tukivyön kanssa on myös helppo istua ja toimia muutenkin arjessa, kuten imettäessä.

Tukivyö tulee kiinnittää napakasti, mutta kuitenkin niin, että pystyt hengittämään ilman suurempaa työtä. Itse ollut hyvin tyytyväinen tuotteeseen ja aion käyttää tätä tukien liikkumistani, sekä ryhtiäni.

Raskauden aikana käytin Lola&Lykke raskaudenajan tukivyötä, joka antoi tukea kasvavalle mahalleni ja auttoi minua liikkumaan hyvin ihan synnytykseen asti. Pian synnytyksen jälkeen otin käyttöön Core Restore synnytyksen jälkeisen tukivyön, jonka tehtävä on auttaa palautumaan synnytyksestä ja raskaudesta paremmin ja nopeammin. Mä käytän tukivyötä ulkona liikkuessani, treenatessani ja muissa arjen tilanteissa. Tässä tukivyössä loistavaa on kaksiosainen kiinnitys, joka takaa täydellisen istuvuuden ja samaa tukivyötä voi käyttää koko synnytyksestä palautumisajan, sillä säätövaraa on yli 20cm! Mulla itselläni vatsa on kaventunut nyt käytön aikana noin 5 senttiä ja jatkan edelleen vyön käyttöä, sillä etenkin alavatsani kaipaa vielä tukea palautumisessa.

Pregnancy puts your body through a lot of changes, and carrying twins was HARD! I've been wearing my core restore band to readjust and recover, it has really helped me to get back to me. I can now go for walks and get myself out of the bath. My posture is probably the best I've ever been.

As a mother we often spend so much time supporting others, we can forget to look after ourselves... I experienced abdominal separation while pregnant with Noah so the extra support to my core has been a big help with my recovery. It's recommended by my physio and it definitely helped me out on my walks especially in the early weeks.

I am now 8 weeks post partum. I had an emergency c section and also have diastasis recti. I have always had to work relatively hard to stay in shape pre pregnancy.
So when I saw the post natal belt, which has been approved by physios and midwives... I knew it was something I wanted to try.
I have to say I am glad I have and I would genuinely recommend this to anyone looking to get active post birth! I mainly wear the belt when gently exercising, it gives me the peace of mind that my core is correctly supported.
These pictures were all taken side by side, with the belt, without the belt and pulling down those flattering high waisted leggings

After birth you still have pregnancy hormones (which helped relax your ligaments) circulating around your body. Many new mummies describe a real feeling of emptiness and openness during the postnatal period. After I had Georgie I really felt this too. When I was picking her up I could also feel the strain on my lower back in particular.

@lolalykke_formums lent me a postnatal support band to try and it is really helping to aid my recovery and reduce that feeling of openness alongside providing extra support for both my back and abdominals. The Velcro panels are so comfortable and adjustable too, it has been great.

I have been wearing it a week now and already noticed a difference, I feel supported and held up straight, My stomach has started to change shape slightly and my jeans feel looser around the “C section pouch” you know what I mean if you have had one!
Would I recommend one? Absolutely if you have had a c section or natural delivery I highly recommend one of these belts, they do a beautiful new mum gift box with washable breast pads, the support belt and every mums best friend - buggy clips to attach your shopping, handbag or changing bag. These are perfect for a baby shower gift list or even just the belt on its own.

1 week postpartum - wearing the support band from Lolalykke - 1 month postpartum. I'm super happy with the result!

lta käyttööni tämän Core Restore Postpartum -tukivyön ja sen antama tuki on kyllä ollut erinomainen. Ryhti pysyy hyvänä arjen askareissa, raskaushormonien johdosta löystyneet keskivartalon lihakset ja nivelet sekä selkä saavat tarvitsemaansa tukea (ihan superhyvä tunne vaunulenkeillä!) ja vyön kiinnitys on helppoa.

My 3 week postpartum reality is Mum bun, maternity leggings, baby sick on my shirt, my lola lykke core restore band saving my back, a gallon of coffee saving my sanity & bags under my eyes big enough for your weekly food shop. Highly recommended this for other mums suffering with back pain

I was at physio today and he was shocked at how much better my stomach is and I've been using the band for only a week!

I've been wearing the band over a week now and can't believe the difference in my tummy. The support is brilliant and helps keep my posture correct when feeding. It's soft and comfortable to wear and easy to open when you need to use bathroom. Would highly recommend. So far so good will definitely continue to wear for the next couple of months!

L ja XL kokojen välillä arpoessa päädyin L-kokoon, osin sillä perusteella että aiemmin ostettu XL-kokoinen raskaustukivyö oli hieman turhan suuren tuntuinen. Tämän kanssa olisi kannattanut kuitenkin valita isompi koko, niin käyttömukavuus olisi parempi.
