Because your vaginal recovery deserves attention too
You’re almost there — your pregnancy is coming to an end and birth is getting closer.
After giving birth, your vaginal area can feel sensitive, swollen, or sore — something many women only realise afterwards.
Gentle cooling can make a big difference during those first few days.
Recommended by midwives and maternity care professionals in the Netherlands and Belgium.

“But do I really need this?”
A very normal question — especially when your focus right now is mainly on giving birth.
Recovery can feel far away, even though those first days are often when your body needs the most support.
What many women don’t expect is that the vaginal area can feel:
- swollen
- sensitive
- sore or bruised
Especially during the first few days.
Cooling is a simple, non-medical way to support your body during this phase — without having to think about it later.

Cooling and protection in one simple solution
After giving birth, you will also experience bleeding for several days.
That’s why it’s helpful to choose a solution that not only cools, but also provides immediate protection.
Cool Couchie pads are cooling maternity pads with a built-in cooling function, activated in just a few seconds — no freezer required.
They allow you to:
- gently cool the sensitive vaginal area
- help reduce swelling and soothe sore spots
- and absorb postpartum bleeding at the same time

DEMO
How to activate the Cool Couchie pad
- Even Out the Pearls: While the pad is still inside its sleeve, gently massage it to distribute the cooling pearls evenly throughout. They may have shifted during shipping, making one end look thicker than the other.
- Fold to Pop: Keeping the pad in the sleeve, fold it in half from top to bottom. Press gently along the fold until you hear a "pop" — this activates the cooling effect.
- Shake It Up: With the pad still in the sleeve, give it a gentle shake to help the cooling fully kick in.
- Unwrap & Apply: Tear open the sleeve and remove the pad. Peel off the paper backing to reveal the adhesive. Place the pad inside your underwear, and you're good to go.
Be prepared — without knowing how your birth will go
You don’t need to know yet how your birth will unfold to still be prepared.
Cool Couchie pads are:
- ✔️ suitable after any vaginal birth
- ✔️ ready to use immediately (no freezer needed — perfect for your hospital bag)
- ✔️ shelf-stable for up to 3 years if you don’t end up needing all of them
This isn’t about over-preparing.
It’s about peace of mind for future you, at a time when your mind will already be full.
Many moms say they were glad they had this ready in advance.
“I’ve often seen the Cool Couchie pads used by the families I care for, and I’m a big fan. They stay cool for a long time and feel soft and comfortable on the sensitive vaginal area after birth.”

How does cooling support postpartum recovery?
In the first days after birth, your body is working hard to recover.
The vaginal area is often sensitive due to stretching, pressure, or small tears.
Gentle cooling:
- helps reduce swelling
- soothes sensitive and sore areas
- provides comfort without medication
Research shows that cooling can help improve comfort and support natural recovery.
That’s why this type of care is often recommended by midwives and maternity care professionals.

IT'S BEEN PROVEN:
WE WON'T LEAVE YOU BURNING!
The application of the cold gel pad to the perineum relieved perineal pain and increased postpartum comfort in all the women. The pain felt by the women during the recovery and the daily activities decreased. Postpartum perineal pain adversely affected daily activities such as lying down, sitting, and walking; infant care, breastfeeding, and urination; and comfort levels of the postpartum women.
