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.

I brought these ready to use after giving birth to my son. At the time of purchasing I did wonder if it was going to be one of those unnecessary items that I would regret spending my money on but my goodness were they appreciated! They are quite bulky so you do notice it’s there when sitting down and walking round, although it’s not something you would use when leaving the house anyway. But it’s not at all uncomfortably bulky and the cooling relief is brilliant. I would definitely buy these again if I have another baby and I would even buy them as a quirky but useful gift for a friend who’s expecting. My best friend didn’t even think of looking to buy anything like this when she had her baby but I’m sure they would have come in useful!

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.

The product was really helpful especially during the first week postpartum. It has helped me relieve the soreness. It is ready to use and does not need refrigeration. However, you need a little bit of strength in activating the cooling effect since you have to crush the inner bag to activate it. Also, the adhesive at the back of the pad is not really strong. The pad is massive and sometimes it comes off easily due to the weak adhesion. The 6 pads only lasted for two days and I wished I had ordered more.

I bought these as I read up about how they are so good if you have a natural birth, so I thought I would get them for my hospital bag. I ended up giving birth naturally with a lot of stitches and I found these brilliant, I only used them on and night for bed but they really eased the pain and discomfort, they are really long and still absorbent. They are easy to use you just have to twist them and it releases the ice pack part. Even though they are expensive they are worth it and I ended up buying 2 packs and I would definitely recommend them and purchase them again.

Followed the instructions and it did not cool at all .. very uncomfortable as they are so thick. Couldn't sit down and made my already sensitive area feel far too worse

Quite hard to snap to activate, requires some force to break the seal inside to allow the ingredients to mix. Once activated it provides a cooling effect for around 5 minutes, nowhere near as cold as ice, but around as cold as something out of a fridge. Quite big, could have a softer outer material and be more ergonomic but nevertheless they do a job.

If you are reading this review you probably have been advised by your midwife to invest in some cold packs. Look no further. These are good and a god sent when recovering from a vaginal delivery. Also fairly inexpensive. If you are pregnant and putting your hospital bag together, get these. If you have been discharged home and feeling like your lady parts need some relief, get these. Are you attending a baby shower? Do you know someone pregnant? GET THESE. They feel very soft against the skin and the cold effect will relieve the soreness. The adhesive in the middle ensures it will stay in place. I'm a first time mom and I only wish I had these in my hospital bag. Having said that, yay for Amazon Prime and next day delivery

J'ai jeté à la poubelle, première utilisation ma fais une infection très déçu

ما حبيت قكرتهم

Do not hesitate, do not waver and do not question just buy this. My vagina was cut during birth and I have a giant bruise on my butt. These are somewhat saving sanity. If you are planning on giving birth, have given birth, know someone who gave birth buy these.
