After giving birth, many women experience diastasis recti—a separation of the abdominal muscles—that can make finding comfortable, supportive clothing a challenge. Embracing your post-baby body is a journey, and the right wardrobe can boost your confidence and comfort during recovery.
Understanding Your Postpartum Body
Diastasis recti affects how you feel in your clothes. You might experience a flatter or more vulnerable midsection, where traditional jeans and tight garments feel restrictive or unsupportive. Recognizing these changes is the first step in building a wardrobe that nurtures your healing process.
Wardrobe Essentials for Diastasis Recti Recovery
- Bloat-Friendly Jeans: Our signature jeans are engineered with a relaxed, supportive waistband and a flexible, breathable fabric that adjusts to your body’s changing needs. These jeans help accommodate your larger waist while offering the comfort you deserve.
- Supportive Tops & Tunics: Choose tops that drape gently over your midsection. Soft, flowy fabrics can conceal and comfort your belly, while subtle patterns and colors can uplift your mood.
- Layering Pieces: Light cardigans or open-front sweaters add a stylish touch and can help create a balanced silhouette, all while giving you extra coverage during recovery.
Style Tips to Boost Confidence
- Focus on Fit Over Size: Instead of chasing a particular size number, choose pieces that work with your body’s new shape. Look for clothing that offers both comfort and structure. The size number truly doesn't matter - each company has different measurements.
- Embrace Soft, Stretchy Fabrics: Materials that move with you—like our bloat-friendly denim—ensure you feel secure without sacrificing style.
- Accessorize Thoughtfully: A cute necklace stack, earrings or a colorful scarf can draw attention upward, highlighting your smile and confidence rather than focusing solely on your midsection.
