From a Customer: I love the Pocket Pillow!
I bought this pillow along with the Hysterectomy prep set and wondered if I would need it. I did! I brought it to the hospital and used it there to help prop myself up. The nurses even kept my cold packs frozen for me! On the drive home, the pillow was my companion and cushioned my 30 minute ride home. I kept it with me everywhere in the house. Perfect. I bought a purple one! It cheered me up!
Just have to rave about this product set the Hysterectomy Prep Set. I bought it for my own surgery and especially loved having the mesh panties for those early days after surgery. The best thing in the set was the binder with the pocket. Those cold packs helped my tender tummy so much. I didn’t realize how much compression would help – but it did! Thank you for this product!
We are so glad you loved them and they were helpful to you! Thanks for sharing it with us!
“I noticed you have different panties in the Hysterectomy Store. When would I wear Mesh Panties?”
Mesh Panties are perfect when you come home from the hospital. In fact, you may recognize these panties as similar to those the hospital put on you the first day of surgery.
These panties are lightweight, VERY stretchy and are perfect over your fresh incisions, stitches and swollen belly. They are also perfect to hold Peri-Pads in place as you need them or Peri-Cold Packs if you had vaginal surgery.
They are machine washable on delicate cycle – and we always suggest the Silky Sac delicate laundry bag for your panties, bras and abdominal binders.
Be Kind to yourself,
