Pregnancy Recovery Secrets

Things I never knew about Pregnancy Recovery a Women's Health Physio Told Me:

1. Everyone gets tummy muscle separation
2. by 6 weeks post baby you should only be going on 30 min walks!
3. You can't do just ANY excercises

So I asked her how on Earth do I recover from pregnancy quick and easy?
This is SCARY stuff!

Her answer was don't stress. First...

REST - and I was like ...yeees i know that. But tell me the tricks of the trade - what can I BUY to make it easier?

So she told me - Invest in some Pregnancy Recovery leggings AND Rest AND go see a Women's Health physiotherapist.

NOW, I'm all about making an effort - but from what I hear when bubs gets here I won't have time to Rest and go to physio appointments for ME.

So as much as I'm going to try my absolute best to book in physio appointments, I'm 100% getting Pregnancy Recovery leggings.

So it's pretty lucky I work at Emamaco! We specialise in pregnancy activewear and (yep you guessed it) that's how I got to do this awesome interview!

So here's the overview of everything Jess and I talked about.

Picture this: you’ve just brought a tiny human into the world. You’re exhausted, exhilarated, and completely in love. But your body? It feels like it’s been through a marathon. That’s where Emamaco Pregnancy Recovery Leggings come in—because, let’s be honest, your postpartum journey deserves nothing but the best.

These aren’t just leggings. They’re a lifeline, a game-changer, a revolutionary piece of clothing that will make you feel like yourself again—strong, supported, and stylish—when you need it most.

Why Emamaco? Because You Deserve to Feel Amazing

Let’s cut to the chase: your body has done something extraordinary, and now it’s time to treat it with the care it deserves. Jess Costas, a renowned women’s health physiotherapist with years of experience, raves about Emamaco leggings—and so do her patients. She’s guided thousands of women through pregnancy and postpartum, and if there’s one thing she insists on, it’s these leggings.

Why? Because they’re not just about looking good (though, spoiler alert, they’re super stylish). They’re about helping your body heal. They act like an extra set of hands, holding you together when everything feels like it’s falling apart. Whether you’re dealing with stomach muscle separation, pelvic floor issues, or just the general discomfort of postpartum life, Emamaco has your back—literally.

The Science Behind the Comfort

What’s the secret sauce?

It’s all in the design.

Emamaco leggings feature hidden abdominal support panels that act like a corset, hugging your midsection and giving your muscles the support they need to heal.

But unlike a traditional corset, these leggings are all about comfort. Flat stitching means no irritation, and the breathable, moisture-wicking fabric keeps you cool and dry, even during those late-night feedings or quick grocery runs.

Imagine slipping into these leggings and instantly feeling that comforting pressure, like a gentle hug that holds everything in place.

They’re designed to be worn all day and all night, giving you the freedom to move, rest, and recover in complete comfort. Whether you’ve had a vaginal delivery or a C-section, these leggings are designed to support you through every step of your postpartum journey.

Style Meets Functionality

But let’s talk about something equally important—style. Yes, you can have it all. These leggings are so sleek and stylish that no one would ever guess they’re designed for postpartum recovery. Whether you’re at home, running errands, or meeting up with friends, you’ll look and feel fantastic.

Jess loves that they come in different styles, with or without pockets, and in a range of colors. It’s like the leggings know you’re a busy mom who still wants to feel fashionable, even when you’re knee-deep in diapers. And the best part? These leggings don’t pick up lint, so you can roll around on the mat with your baby without worrying about looking disheveled.

Your Postpartum Essential—From Day One

The beauty of Emamaco leggings is that they’re designed to be worn as soon as you’re ready. If you’ve had a straightforward vaginal delivery, you might be able to slip into them the day after giving birth. For C-section moms, give yourself a few extra days. But whenever you’re ready, these leggings will be there, offering gentle compression and support that feels just right.

You can wear them 24/7 if you want. Yes, even to bed. That’s because they’re made from breathable fabric that wicks away moisture, keeping you comfortable around the clock. No more waking up in the middle of the night feeling sticky or uncomfortable—just pure, undisturbed sleep (as much as your baby allows, of course).

Why Moms Love Emamaco

It’s not just Jess who’s a fan. Her patients love these leggings, too. They rave about how supportive they feel, how comfortable they are, and—most importantly—how much they help with recovery.

And let’s be real—after everything your body has been through, you deserve to feel amazing. You deserve to look in the mirror and see a strong, confident woman staring back at you. You deserve Emamaco.

Perfect post partum

I purchased these recovery leggings to have for when I had little bubba. I did leave it a bit late and had to pre order them for the arrival mid August. Baby arrived two weeks early so I didn’t get to wear these straight away (four weeks later) however still sooo worth it and I’m wanting to purchase some shorts as I love how they feel around the tummy very supported and high waisted. Everything feels snug.

The best leggings!!!!

These leggings are amazing!! Super supportive at holding my belly in after a c section yet still comfortable! I feel they’ve made a difference in my swelling too! Definitely recommend giving them a go post partum!

Amazing! Love them!

These recovery leggings have been an amazing part of my postpartum recovery in my second pregnancy. I definitely felt the difference in my abdominals the second time around and these leggings provide me the best support for my recovery! Love them!

A little bit tight to pull it on

A little bit tight when I pull it on, but feel fine after a few minutes. I am 164cm with 59kg after birth, wearing size S. The material is a little bit cold to wear in winter.

Great support

Helps hold me in and feel supported after my C-section. Originally purchased my pre pregnancy size - small, way to hard to get on comfortably, repurchased medium and they fit perfectly. My only issue is the seam between the pant part and the waist support sits right on my scar

No Pet Hair? Did I just read that right?

Yes you did.
We use our own custom formula for all our leggings. We call it Supaflex.
It stretches and compresses and it is so soft and smooth that it repels pet hair.
In fact we're famous for it. Women's Health Australia did an awesome article about it.

Every day we speak to celebs, magazines and influencers who want to feature us. And sometimes when its publications like Vogue, well, it just makes sense
