Not only do our perineum cooling pads provide cold relief for your sore and tender birthing parts, they’re also amazing for perineal tearing and stitches too. Each one of the soft, super-absorbent pads will soak up fluid, blood and lochia all the while providing cool and much-needed relief for post-birth recovery and haemorrhoids.
The super-soft pad gives full coverage for your entire perineal area with an adhesive strip to keep it in place.
Perineum Cooling Pads for C-sections
Our pads can also help support your perineum during childbirth whether you’re birthing vaginally or with a C-section. Your Caesarean incision will be tender for a few weeks and our padsicles can help to relieve scar tenderness! Just pop the padsicles over your C-section (pad side down) incision dressing a few times a day for a couple of weeks to a couple of months to facilitate healing. This helps if you are having pain over the incision, irritation that comes on by the day's end, or swelling. A great time to pop the padsicles on is while you are feeding bub to feel the relief!

FAQs:
What is a cooling perineum pad?
An instant cooling Padsicle or perineum cooling pad is an instant version of a frozen sanitary pad that is intended to ease the discomfort at the perineum post-delivery. These pads provide cold relief and reduce inflammation, pain and swelling of the birthing parts while collecting vaginal discharge.
Are padsicles necessary for postpartum recovery? What are their benefits?
Post-birth the perineum becomes sore and tender and can experience irritation and pain. Applying a cold medium is a highly effective way to soothe it. Bubba Bump’s perineum cooling padsicles make this recovery hassle-free. The super-absorbent, soft padsicles soak up the lochia while providing much-needed cool relief to your perineum.
Can Perineum Cooling Pads be used on a C-section incision?
Absolutely! Bubba Bump padsicles can help alleviate tenderness and irritation around the stitches by providing soothing cold therapy. Place the padsicle (pad side down) over the incision for a couple of weeks to help with the healing process.
Remember, our padsicles are your best friend if you are experiencing pain, irritation or swelling over the incision!
How many Perineum Cooling Pads do I need for postpartum?
The number of padsicles you need depends on the speed of your recovery and how you feel every day. As a new mum, you can expect to have bleeding and discomfort for up to 6 weeks. It is ideal to use our Perineum Cooling Pads for up to 45 days after giving birth.
If your recovery takes longer or you need extra relief, it is safe for you to use the padsicles for a longer period of time.
How do I use Bubba Bump’s Instant Perineum Cooling Padsicles?
Our Instant Perineum Cooling Padsicles are very easy to use. The following are the steps on how to use them:
For perineal use :
- Remove the pad from the packaging and gently press it all over to activate the cooling. You should hear a pop when you press the pad.
- Give it a good shake.
- Take off the adhesive strip and stick the pad to your undies.
Now sit back and enjoy the cold, soothing feeling on your perineum.
For use on C-section incision:
- Remove the pad from the packaging and gently press it all over to activate the cooling. You should hear a pop when you press it.
- Give it a good shake.
- Place it pad down on the incision area and let it provide you with the much-needed relief you deserve.
Can Perineum Cooling Pads be reused?
Definitely not. Our padsicles absorb after-birth vaginal discharge like lochia and blood, so they need to be discarded after one use. The cooling element is also single-use and cannot be activated again.
