I got this kit, knowing that some items wouldn’t fit. I wish the maternity world would acknowledge that one size definitely doesn’t work for moms-to-be.
The belly support band & pajama top doesn’t fit, and the socks aren’t quite big enough, but the silicone strips are something I definitely plan to use, as I will have 3 sections scars when this birth is done. I also like the sleep mask and the car seat belt cover is a genius touch! Riding in the car post surgery has always been the hardest for me!
The peri-bottle is a nice addition, as hospitals don’t always supply those for section moms, and it’s a nice thing to have to help “trigger” using the bathroom post surgery. The stretch undies are always “one size fits all” but these just aren’t super comfortable. I’ll probably see what the hospital has in larger sizes.
This kit has a lot of thought behind it- and I’d really love to be able to upgrade to a true plus size version. That would make it 5 stars.

Best gift for Mom-to-Be.
My friend who I gave it to LOVED it. It’s the best gift to give a mom to be. She loved that there is a band that can be used in the car that goes across your stomach over the c-section area, for when going home from the hospital.

What Don’t They Consider?
I really appreciated the essentials bag for c-section patients because it’s not something we see very often. Oftentimes us c-section patients are left out of the kits of the world or birthing essential baskets and this finally makes me feel prepared and included. Not only was the scar tape included to consider our scar but also a postpartum wrap AND seat belt cushion so that the scar isn’t irritated by the seatbelt. I There’s even an encouraging note and message included in and on the bag for healing so no details were spared in my opinion and it is very much appreciated.One thing I’m unsure of is if this is a price that a lot of people would be willing to pay but given all the items provided I kind of get it.

Absolute great for the new mother
This is a wonderful bag for the new mother. This was a shocker gift at a baby shower and the most common comment was that everyone thinks baby showers are for the newborn but don’t always think of the new mother. This was seen as a pampering gift and was a huge hit with crowd and mother.

The Sweet JoJo Designs Store C-Section Recovery Postpartum Essentials Kit is a fantastic gift made up of high-quality items. Each piece is thoughtfully selected and not only useful but also nice enough to be given individually. In fact, everything in the kit, except for the scar tape, can be used by any new mom, whether she had a C-section or not. This kit is truly a thoughtful gift for postpartum recovery.
