About Emamaco Recovery Leggings
Designed from the ground up to support and shape Post Natal.
Introducing the Emamaco Pregnancy Recovery Leggings and Shorts.
Made to complement the Emama Maternity Leggings. Our Maternity Leggings are made to be worn throughout pregnancy and also immediately after. When you need that extra support and compression you can switch to these Pregnancy Recovery Emama Leggings (usually straight away when you get home from hospital).
Please consult your medical professional regarding your compression requirements for post pregnancy recovery. They will be able to advise you on the timing and suitability of wearing recovery clothing including the emamaco pregnancy recovery tights.
Extra high and extra supportive the pregnancy recovery leggings pull you in provide back support as well as abdominal support.
No Front Seam = No Camel TOE
No annoying front seams and stitching down the crotch means you get better comfort AND no camel toe
Custom Developed by Emamaco for our beautiful customers
4 Panel Support System
With in-built Mesh we have 4 support panels around the tummy to provide back and ab support and the help with ab separation through compression.
The extra layer of mesh provides breathable support and compression through the abdominal region.
Stitching for Post Natal Recovery
We only use flat lock stitching because it is strong and does not cause skin irritation. This is especially important for Post natal recovery if you have c-section scars.
The waist seam is lower to provide all of the support required for postpartum
Materials and Fabrics
Made from the emamaco Supaflex fabrics used across our maternity range, the leggings are smooth, super soft, breathable and fit like a second skin.
Material is a custom Nylon and Elastane blend
please note some sizes have our updated emamaco logo at the back - note shown in picture new photos coming soon
The new logo is just as small and unobtrusive as the old.
Size Guide
The size chart for Recovery is different to Maternity & all other emamaco leggings.
Sizing is based on your Hip Measurement if you are currently 35v weeks plus.
To measure your hips you just measure around the widest part of your butt (not your bump!) like in this photo:
Please note our size chart is a guide and everyone and everybody shape is different if you need help with sizing always reach out to our customer service team for help.
If you are postpartum:
We recommend to choose based on your waist and hip measurement.
If you find on the size chart that your waist measurement is under a larger size category than your hip measurement then we recommend to go with the waist measurement. For example if your waist is 80cm and your hip is 102cm then we recommend to go with size medium.
If your hip measurement is on the larger size category compared to your waist measurement on the size chart then we recommend to go by the hip measurement. For example if your hip is 100cm and your waist is 73cm then we would recommend to go with size XS
Please note our sizing chart is a guide and everyone is different. If you have any questions about sizing please get in touch through the contact us page here.
Please pick your size based on your hip measurement if 35 weeks plus pregnant and based on your waist and hip measurement if postpartum in the chart below, please note everyone will always fit into 2 sizes well. If you want a less tight fit you can usually size up.
Note - do not size down as these are a compression garment and quite tight!
Sizing applies for all Pregnancy Recovery Leggings and Shorts.

Customer Reviews
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.
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!
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 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.
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
