Maternity & Postpartum Support Bloomers - Scallop Edge Coco
The Hug + Hammock that Healing Bodies Crave
Why We Love It
The ultimate in core + pelvic floor support during pregnancy and postpartum.
Pregnancy can be painful. Postpartum Recovery can be humbling and complex. Our Support Bloomers provide the therapeutic difference.
Meet the Physio-designed Support Bloomers built to take the pressure & strain off of your body. They offer unique core + pelvic floor support to alleviate prenatal & postpartum discomfort and support your recovery.
How It Works
Our Core + Pelvic Floor SUPPORT BLOOMERS offer a truly unique support system that minimizes stress & strain horizontally over the abdomen. This support is key to reducing abdominal separation/ab splitting. Additionally, these bloomers offer pelvic floor support with a hammock made from our custom proprietary fabric. This "bottoms up" approach begins with a supporting 'lift' to the pelvic floor.
Tight corsets and binders are ineffective and can actually create pressure on your pelvic floor. Our improved and healthy approach uses flexible compression and research based physiology to support your body.
Wide enough to wear a pad, these bloomers are the ideal undergarment for your fourth trimester. There are no seams to aggravate c-section incisions and the fabric has the perfect touch of softness. Our bloomers are a must-have in your hospital bag.

LoveSteady was created by a Women's Health Physical Therapist and Pilates Instructor. Our products are inspired by your active pregnancy and motherhood journey! Proudly made in the USA. 100% designed & manufactured in California.
At LoveSteady your goal is to be more than just a place you shop. Our desire is to be a trusted ally, a supportive friend, an encouraging advocate, and a helpful source of information.
Where We Come From
LoveSteady was created in 2007 when our founder, a then practicing physical therapist named Suzanne, noticed that her patients didn’t have the tools they needed to comfortably get through pregnancy. She began designing products that would support those who were looking to remain active and supported throughout their pregnancies and prevent them from turning to restrictive, ill-fitting girdles and binders that would squeeze their midsections and actually impede postpartum recovery. She started sharing her sample pieces with local Northern California mothers and officially launched as Bao Bei at the Los Angeles Trade Show in September 2007. The Belly Sports Bra was officially born.
Fast forward to today, LoveSteady is still comprised of a small team of moms dedicated to providing support for people in all phases of their parenthood journey. We believe postpartum is forever and are constantly working to extend our reach so that everyone can feel supported, nurtured, and cared for through pregnancy and beyond.
Intentional Design
Each product from our collection is intentionally created from start to finish. We begin with a design and test it again and again before it is ever publicly released. Each piece we make is more than just part of an outfit. We aim to create lasting support wear that will stand the test of time, and, most importantly, support a healthy pregnancy and postpartum. From our sizing to our fabric selection, nothing is chosen without thought and concern for those who are trusting us with their bodies.
As a promise to you, we are constantly striving to be more inclusive while maintaining our commitment to slow fashion and ethical production. Our goal is to continually expand our reach so that you feel supported, regardless of your size, race, gender identity, or sexual orientation,
Commitment to Sustainability
From the start, upholding ethical production has been a core tenet of LoveSteady. We use small batch production, ensuring both the quality of our product and the proper treatment of all those involved in manufacturing. From our fabric selection, to our sewing team, to our shipping team we work with small businesses to support our local economy and reduce our impact on the planet.
We are consistently upgrading our packaging to be more environmentally conscious and look for creative ways to use our fabric scraps so we can reduce waste. We are dedicated to supporting every caregiver, including Mother Earth.
Community Focus
LoveSteady will always strive to place our community first. We are who we are because of you. You really do matter to us. As a small business, we promise never to forget our roots and never to stop celebrating each and every purchase you make. You are the reason we are here, and we will continue honoring our commitment to you, to our community, and to our Earth. Please feel free to reach out to us at any time (hello@teambaobei.com) We look forward to the opportunity to support you and thank you for placing your trust in us.

I have been using them a lot. I survived the Taylor Swift, Eras Tour, concert 7 months pregnant. I also use them for karate classes and Pilates.
This helped my pelvic and back pain immensely in the third trimester. I’m so thankful to have this during this season of life!
These were everything I hoped they would be. Feels like my belly is getting a nice hug and some support off my back and pelvic floor. I am excited to wear these throughout pregnancy and postpartum. The material was a bit thicker than I imagined but I can see why so it can give lots of support. I’m 220lbs 7 months pregnant and got a size XL, they fit snug but great!
I am confident these are my favorite purchase from BaoBei! I wore them daily post partum and will be buying another pair. I’m in a medium. I was two days postpartum, 150lbs here and I’m 5’3. Don’t hesitate! They are so soft and there is room for a pad or brief.
These bloomers are worth the price! They were my favorite thing to wear when my regular undies started to dig in and my lower back needed the extra support during pregnancy and during the early postpartum days when I didn’t want to wear tight clothing but loved the gentle lift.
I’ve loved these bloomers through pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. I’ve treated myself to a new bloomer for each pregnancy (3) and this coco color is just so pretty. I am able to wear the same size throughout pregnancy because of the soft stretch at the top, and the pelvic floor support helps ease aches and pains, especially low back related. With my 3rd pregnancy I changed into these bloomers immediately after delivery and noticed I didn’t get the full body swelling that I always have after delivering. My belly felt so supported and hugged. My bleeding is SIGNIFICANTLY shorter when inconsistently wear these PP as well.
When I’m not PP, I’ll wear these to ease bloating (GI related and menstrual), and feel they help with cramping during periods, even leaving room to tuck a warm bean bag against my belly and have it held there while I move about the house. Truly a staple for any stage of life!
My only complaint is the panty lines, but also have learned to not care or wear a longer shirt to cover because they’re worth it lol
So comfy, so well made, perfect for postpartum belly support and healing from C section
I ordered a two-pack of the black scalloped compression bloomers on June 4 with the knowledge that they would ship in 3 weeks (June 25 ish). On July 2 (this was 4 weeks after I ordered), I received a message from the company asking if I would swap the product I ordered so they could ship now. I responded asking when the product I actually ordered would be able to ship. They said it would be at least another week or two (so, 5-6 weeks after I placed my order). There was no apology offered, just blame shifting to their “sewers in San Francisco.” I didn’t want to wait another week or two because I was late in my pregnancy already, so I had to go with a different color (ultimately not the biggest deal, but I had wanted black to match my maternity/nursing bras). I can’t recommend purchasing from this company due to the poor customer service, not to mention extremely high prices.
Hi Brittany, thank you for sharing your experience. We're sorry to hear about the delay and how it affected your plans. We appreciate your feedback and will work on improving our communication and service. If you have any further concerns, please feel free to reach out directly. Wishing you all the best during your postpartum!
Must have. Game changer for postpartum. Obviously I remembered how important bloomers are from my last postpartum - since I made sure I had several of them ready for this time around (original and cotton.) BUT I forget what a physical relief they are. Totally different experience standing up with them on vs off. 2nd baby means way worse after pains and the support also really helps with that. 3 days postpartum and I am IN it. Trust me. Get the bloomers.
Maternity & Postpartum Support Bloomers - Scallop Edge Coco
I love the support bloomers way more than I thought! They are super comfy, lightweight, and supportive without being overly restrictive. They cover the entire butt, too, which is a plus. Would highly recommend!
So great for supporting a low sitting baby and pelvic floor! This is my second purchase of these bloomers. Worth every penny!
I like them b ur unfortunately the seams on the thigh area are painful and dig into my skin. I ordered a size small according to size guide as I am a smaller waist and bigger thighs. It fits perfectly except for that area .
I want 20 pairs of these for postpartum. Great midsection support, easy to load a pad and some witch hazel into. I feel safe and protected.
Very comfy and helps a ton with vaginal varicose veins. Wearing them while very pregnant and also plan to use postpartum! Would love it if they weren’t so expensive.
I was surprised how the gentle compression helped with my painful vulvar varicose vein. I was skeptical that it would be enough, but it provided relief and support for my pelvic floor. Even feel relief on my belly with how they fit! Worth the price!
This was way too much compression on my belly (I felt faint and got ringing in my ears after a couple minutes) but I think it'll be good for postpartum!
The bloomers are soft and made of good quality material, but I feel as though the sizing recommendation was off a bit - I got a small (I'm generally a size 6 in pants) and wish I'd sized up - I find them to be a bit tight in my crotch/leg area. Unfortunately, they seem to be sold out of mediums now which is too bad!
Seriously love these bloomers!!! They have been comfortable and supportive during my c section recovery. I plan to wear them even after being fully recovered bc they are cute and supportive! I order a medium, but was accidentally sent a large. I didn't notice the error until after they came out of the wash for my first wear and realized they were too big. I sent a message to the lovesteady team and they immediately sent me the correct size for free due to the error and asked me to gift the larger size (never worn) to a friend since they couldn't be returned/exchanged.
5'8" and between 160-170 lbs during my 0-4 weeks post partum. These are so comfy and appropriately supportive without being too restrictive. They don't cut into my belly or legs, they are very smoothing under clothes. After I tried on the first pair I immediately ordered 2 more pairs. I also ordered a "pelvic floor support" underwear from a different brand and returned them. These lovesteady/boabei bloomers are superior to the other brand I tried!
Love these bloomers!!
I like these bloomers and they fit well and stay up. They are not as breathable as I would like though, so I find myself taking them off every couple hours to give myself some relief. And they dont have as much compression as I expected. It’s more like a tight sock vs a compression sock. So if light compression is what you’re looking for, then these are for you. However, I was dealing with vulvar varicosities and it just did not offer enough support when I was on my feet. However, sometimes I preferred the lighter compression to give myself a break from my medical grade compression garment. So I was very grateful to have bought these as well! I am looking forward to using these post partum.
I’m not confident that I get actual added support from them, but I think I do. I like having my bump feel tucked in, especially at work (nurse), and these are very comfortable.
I really like these! I wear them with underwear underneath so I can wear it multiple times before washing. I think it helps alleviate my lower back pain, and it feels supportive without being too constrictive or bulky. I wouldn't buy another just because of the high price point, though, there are already so many other things related to pregnancy and prepping for baby that stretches my budget.
I’ve had two csections and these bloomers have come with me for both. They’re a wonderful option for times when you’re resting and a binder is just uncomfortable. They don’t both stitches and give a wonderful hug.
Love these!
I've been wearing these support bloomers nearly every day postpartum for almost a month now and am so happy with my purchase. This was my 11th birth. I have tried a lot of postpartum items over the past 21 years and these bloomers are one of the best purchases I have ever made for the early days. They are snug but not overly constricting. My core is supported but I can still breathe. I highly recommend these for every postpartum mama! The only downside is the price. If you can afford it purchase 2 so you will have one to wear while the other is in the wash. 10 out of 10!
