Pregnancy & Postpartum Support

Your body is going through something extraordinary.

Pregnancy and Postpartum change everything — your back, your pelvis, your posture, your core. Most moms are left to figure it out on their own, or worse, down a Google rabbit hole at midnight. Jenn is here to change that.

Educational guidance only — not a diagnosis. Always involve your Healthcare Provider.

Body After Baby AI Companion

"That lower back ache that gets worse as the day goes on — you're not imagining it, and you're definitely not alone. Your center of gravity has shifted forward as baby grows, and the hormone relaxin is loosening the ligaments that stabilize your spine. Here's what's actually happening in your body right now, and what gives real relief..."

Built on 15 years of Body After Baby's clinical experience and informed by physician guidance in Perinatal OB/GYN and Women's Health Physical Therapy. Every support garment is FDA Registered.

A Specialty Brand, Built Around One Body.

Body After Baby designs support specifically for the pregnant and post-pregnant body — not adapted from general shapewear, but built from the ground up around the areas pregnancy and childbirth actually change.

Founded by a husband-and-wife team and shaped with input from leading OB-GYNs, women's health physicians, and moms who've been through it, our garments support the whole picture — waist, core, hips, back, and pelvis — instead of squeezing one area at a time. The goal isn't to shrink you back. It's the right balance of support, compression, and comfort for how your body heals.

Designed for the change

Every product starts with a clear understanding of what pregnancy does to the body — then supports it, rather than fighting it.

Backed by clinicians

Developed with physician input and registered as an FDA Medical Device — credentials that support the product, not the reason to start here.

Support, compression, comfort

The three have to be in balance. Too much of any one, and it's something you take off. We design so you keep it on.

Most Women Aren't Told What's Normal.

These are the five things moms deal with most — and almost never get real answers about. Until now. Tap any one for a quick overview, then talk it through with Jenn.

Five Questions. One Honest Answer.

Jenn gathers just enough context to give you a response that actually applies to your situation — not a generic article you've already read.

1

Where You Are Right Now

Pregnant, just delivered, weeks out, months in — Jenn starts with your stage because the right answer at 28 weeks is completely different from the right answer at 8 weeks postpartum.

2

What's Bothering You

Back, pelvis, core, swelling, mood, return to exercise — you can select up to three. Most moms are dealing with more than one thing at once.

3

How Significant It Is

Mild, moderate, or severe — this shapes which Body After Baby product Jenn recommends and how she frames your options.

4

Anything Extra — In Your Words

Optional, but powerful. A sentence or two from you gives Jenn the context to make her response feel personal rather than scripted.

5

A Quick Safety Screen

If anything urgent comes up — heavy bleeding, fever, numbness — Jenn responds differently and points you to real care right away.

Pregnant
Back pain + Sciatica · Moderate

"That lower back and sciatic pain building through your pregnancy isn't something to push through without support — it's a signal that your SI joint is under compression from your shifting center of gravity. The right support addresses the source directly. The NINER was built for exactly this pattern of pain."

What Pregnancy Can Look Like.

From the first trimester to the final stretch. Tap any stage to see what your body is doing — and what Jenn focuses on there.

1st trimester 2nd trimester Early 3rd Late 3rd Final stretch

1st trimester · weeks 1–13

Everything is changing — most of it where no one can see.

The outside world might not notice anything yet, but your body is already doing extraordinary work. Fatigue, nausea, and tenderness are common as your hormones shift. There's usually no bump to support this early — so this stage is less about garments and more about understanding what's happening and starting the conversation with Jenn about what's ahead.

For right now

Education first

Support garments come a little later. For now, Jenn helps you understand the changes and plan for the trimesters ahead.

2nd trimester · weeks 14–27

The golden stretch — and the first real support need.

Many moms feel their best here: the early nausea eases and energy returns. Your bump is becoming visible, and as your center of gravity shifts forward, your lower back starts taking on more load. This is when gentle, everyday belly and back support starts to make a real difference — keeping you comfortable and active as you grow.

Everyday belly and back support for the active mom — breathable, discreet, and made to move with you as you grow.

Early 3rd trimester · weeks 28–33

Your body is carrying more — support becomes daily.

The third trimester is here, and the weight you're carrying is real. Back pain, pelvic pressure, and tired, swollen legs become much more common as baby grows and your body works harder to support you both. This is the stage where dedicated support — for your belly, back, and circulation — moves from helpful to genuinely day-to-day.

For the early 3rd trimester

The NINER™ + CAPA™

Premium, adjustable belly-and-back support for the heavier weeks, paired with graduated compression for swelling and tired legs.

Late 3rd trimester · weeks 34–40

The home stretch — maximum support, maximum comfort.

You're carrying the most you will all pregnancy, and it shows in how your body feels. Lower back load, pelvic heaviness, and swelling in your legs and ankles often peak now. The right support won't make the weight disappear, but it can take a real share of it off your back and pelvis — and help your circulation — so the final weeks are more livable.

For the late 3rd trimester

The NINER™ + CAPA™

Maximum adjustable belly-and-back support that grows with you to full term, plus all-day compression for swollen, tired legs.

Final stretch · 37+ weeks, full term

Full term — supported, ready, and almost there.

You've reached full term. Baby may drop lower into your pelvis, shifting how everything feels one more time. Comfort and circulation are the priorities now as you wait — and the same support that carried you through the third trimester carries you to the finish. Jenn also helps you start thinking ahead to those first recovery days after delivery.

For the final weeks

The NINER™ + CAPA™

Continued belly, back, and pelvic support to full term, with compression for circulation — then Jenn helps you plan your recovery wear.

The first days are about rest, not bouncing back.

You just did something enormous. Right now your body is sore, swollen, and tender — whether you delivered vaginally or by C-section. This stage isn't about progress. It's about gentle support, staying comfortable, and giving healing somewhere to begin. Jenn starts with what you're feeling today, not what comes next.

1–2 weeks · settling in

Early healing — steady support, no rushing.

By the second week, the initial shock is easing, but you're still very much in recovery. Consistent, comfortable support helps your core and pelvis feel held while everything is still tender. This is about reducing day-to-day strain — getting up, holding baby, moving around the house — not training or shaping.

This is when consistent support makes the real difference.

Six weeks is not a finish line — it's a beginning. Your pelvic floor is rebuilding. Your core is learning to fire again. Relaxin is still in your system, which means your joints still need support while they find their footing. This is the window where what you do matters most.

3–6 months · strength is returning

Your body wants to move again. Here's how to let it.

A few months out, most moms are ready to push further — and they should. But rebuilding without the right support risks undoing progress. Think of external support at this stage the way an athlete thinks about a brace during return to sport — it enables more movement, not less.

Dr. Sean Daneshmand, MD

"Proper support during and after pregnancy isn't an accessory — it's part of how a woman's body heals. Body After Baby has built that support into a product that moms can actually use."

Women's Health Physical Therapy

Dr. Heather Jeffcoat, DPT

Los Angeles, California

"C-section recovery is real surgical recovery. The right external support in the early weeks is part of the recovery protocol — Body After Baby's garments address what most products completely overlook."

Plastic Surgeon

Robert Kessler, MD

On the role of compression in postpartum recovery

"As used successfully in body-contouring procedures to facilitate healing, mothers may benefit greatly from compressive support garments during postpartum healing and recovery — both in the short term immediately following childbirth, and again in the later stages."

A principle Body After Baby is built on — engineered compression and support for exactly these stages.
