This pack of 6 gives you a supply of cooling relief for those tender first days after a vaginal birth, whether at the hospital or once you're home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnlike ice packs or DIY \"padsicles\", these packs activate instantly with a firm squeeze, so there's no freezer needed and no risk of freezer burn against sensitive skin. That makes them easy to keep in your maternity or hospital bag, ready to use the moment you need them. They're a drug-free form of pain relief, which means they don't interfere with breastfeeding or any other medication you may be taking — and because each pack is very absorbent, it can be worn on its own without a separate maternity pad or sanitary towel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstant activation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Squeezing the pad ruptures an inner chamber, and a shake mixes the contents to create the cooling effect — no fridge or freezer required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGentle, controlled cooling:\u003c\/strong\u003e The comfortable cooling sensation lasts around 20 minutes, which is the recommended length of time for a single session of cooling therapy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrug-free relief:\u003c\/strong\u003e The cold works with your body to ease discomfort without any medication, so it won't interfere with breastfeeding or other medicines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFold the pack in half and squeeze firmly until you hear or feel the inner chamber \"pop\".\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShake well to mix the ingredients and activate the cooling effect.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlace the pack in your underwear, just as you would a regular maternity towel or pad.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor an even colder feel, spray or sprinkle a small amount of water onto the pack before shaking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhile wearing it, adjust your position or rock gently forwards and backwards to remix the contents and refresh the cool.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse for around 20 minutes at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe First Days Maternity Perineal Cold Packs are a good option for parents who:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant soothing, drug-free cooling for the perineum after a vaginal birth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHave had stitches following birth and are looking for gentle comfort in that area\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrefer the convenience of instant packs they can pack in a hospital bag without needing a freezer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWould rather not layer a cold pack over a separate maternity pad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese are a Class IIa medical device carrying the CE mark.
