SRC Pregnancy Shorts - Mini Over The Bump

Product Description

Can't stand for longer than 2 minutes?
Having difficulty just walking around the house?
Dealing with increased pressure and heaviness in your groin?

Exhausted by:

• Low back pain
• Sciatic nerve pain
• Pelvic girdle pain (SIJ, Symphysis Pubis pain)
• Vulval veins
• Varicose veins of the upper thigh

In addition to treating the above conditions, it is essential to protect your pelvic floor. Our patented, evidence-based triple-layer gusset panel helps maintain strength in your pelvic floor muscles during pregnancy, which can contribute to decreasing the risk of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) and Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) post-delivery. It also aids in the treatment of existing SUI and POP during pregnancy.

Designed with anti-chafing fabric and in consultation with an obstetrician for the ultimate in comfort and functionality, SRC Pregnancy Shorts - Mini Over the Bump are specifically designed to help you get back to enjoying your pregnancy.

What's the difference between a belly band or pregnancy belt and the SRC Pregnancy Shorts?

Unlike belly bands, SRC Pregnancy Shorts can treat multiple conditions, are more comfortable to wear, and are hence more likely to be worn for longer periods, which increases their effectiveness. A belly band worn too tightly can risk muscle deactivation and should only be worn for short periods (2-3 hours) to prevent this. In some cases, you may benefit from both the SRC Pregnancy Shorts AND a pregnancy belt.

How they work?

SRC Pregnancy Garments have been speci cally designed to support your 'baby carrying pelvis' 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 and move around more easily and just generally makes you feel like yourself again.

Patented Anatomical Support Panels (ASP) in the SRC Pregnancy Garments deliver targeted compression, ideal for treating multiple conditions like lower back pain, pelvic girdle pain and mild varicose veins as well as 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 ASP deliver True Cross Compression (TCC) as each layer within the panel is cut on a different plane so that during activity no compression is lost at any time.

The triple layer compression ASP including the gusset panel, have been shown to significantly help with the pressure associated with vulval veins.

The research and development of our fabric was extensive as we wanted to ensure that it provided support and comfort with no feeling of restriction. Our 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.

To make sure we deliver this we decided to test our fabric against one of the leading compression brands in the marketplace to assess whether the compression properties were sustained after multiple washes and how this compared to the other brand.

We subjected the fabric to 100 wash cycles followed by an extension test. Our fabric not only retained its original size and shape (against the competitor which shrunk significantly) but also retained the same high level of compression at the conclusion of testing.

What are the differences in pregnancy compression lengths/styles?

This is a question we get asked a lot by women wondering which length and style (Over the Bump or Under the Bump) will be the best fit for their needs. Each garment has very slight variations and more than anything else, it comes down to personal preference for each customer.

• Full length leggings provide the best venous return and are a fashion staple that can be worn like any other pair of black leggings. However, pregnancy leggings may not be preferable for women who live in warmer climates and are also going to be slightly more difficult to put on than our shorter styles.
• Regular (knee-length) Shorts can be worn like bike shorts as both an undergarment and outerwear. They provide a slightly better venous return than our Mini length.
• Lots of women prefer the Pregnancy Shorts Mini because they fit perfectly under shorter dresses and are great for hotter climates. They are also the easiest to put on.

Over the Bump or Under the Bump?

Over the bump products do not have any compression over the belly, however, some women prefer to be fully covered to achieve the feeling of extra support. Both styles provide the exact same level of compression and it is up to the individual on what style they would prefer. Here's our rule of thumb:

Under the Bump:

• If you don't want to cover your belly
• If your skin can feel sensitive and itchy
• If you feel hot or live in warmer climates

Over the Bump:

• If you want to cover the bump
• If you like the feeling of extra support without compressing the bump
