An Essential Part of Your Pregnancy Wardrobe
Pregnancy is portrayed in movies and literature as a beautiful, glowing and enjoyable time. Of course, it can be all of these things, but nothing can quite prepare you for the downsides that can occur, and the pain you may endure as your body shifts and changes to accommodate your growing baby and prepare you for birth. Your internal organs and even your bones physically move to create room for your growing bundle of joy, and your ligaments and muscles that support your back and pelvis become looser, meaning you are far more vulnerable to the possibility of back and pelvic floor issues.
Made with Comfort in Mind
Can’t stand for longer than 2 minutes? Having difficulty just walking around the house?
SRC Pregnancy Garments have been expertly designed to support your pelvis while carrying your baby and reduce the stress placed on it through your pregnancy. This allows you to stay at work for longer, helps you get back on your feet, move around more easily and most importantly helps you get back to feeling like “you” again.
The Patented Anatomical Support Panels in the SRC Pregnancy Garments deliver targeted compression, ideal for treating multiple conditions such as:
- Lower back pain
- Pelvic girdle pain
- Mild varicose veins
- Vulvar varicosities
They provide support to the pelvic area through gentle yet constant compression, activating muscles and encouraging core stability, reducing swelling and muscle fatigue. The triple layer compression ASP including the gusset panel, have been shown to significantly help with the pressure associated with vulval veins.
What’s the difference between a belly band or belly wrap and the SRC Mini Over The Bump Shorts?
Unlike belly bands, SRC Mini Over The Bump Shorts can treat multiple conditions, are more comfortable to wear and are more likely to be worn for longer periods therefore increasing their effectiveness. Most pregnancy belly bands do not move with your body and can feel restrictive requiring constant adjustment when sitting down or getting up, as well as not always comfortable or flattering especially if you are wearing them under anything that is fitted or over your clothes. The SRC Pregnancy Mini Over The Bump garments are also your perfect sleeping companion - you will feel supported and stable as you sleep, waking up feeling refreshed.
Thoughtfully Designed by Experts
The uniquely milled fabric goes through rigorous independent testing to ensure that it is of the highest quality and can stretch and return to its original shape consistently after wash and wear to provide you with optimal performance and a longer lasting garment. Subjected to 100 wash cycles followed by an extension test, the fabric not only retained its original size and shape but also retained the same high level of compression at the conclusion of testing - meaning you can utilise the shorts for future pregnancies if you decide one isn’t enough of a challenge!
Sizing
Please see sizing information below prior to purchasing your over the bump shorts. We recommend you ask for assistance when taking your own measurements to ensure you purchase the correct size. Measure around the hips at their largest area. The tape should sit over the top part of the pubic bone and the biggest part of the bottom and should be touching all the way around but should not be tight.
