Postpartum Power: Reclaiming Your Body After Birth With Gotyu

Childbirth changes everything, your heart, your life, and yes, your body. The world wants you to focus on the baby (and of course you do), but the truth is: you matter just as much. The postpartum weeks aren’t just about sleepless nights and endless cuddles , they’re about your recovery, your healing, and your confidence.
Here’s the real talk nobody gives you in the baby prep books:
Urinary leaks? Common. Postpartum bleeding (lochia)? Guaranteed. Feeling a little lost in your own body? Totally normal.
The problem is, these topics are whispered about if spoken about at all. And that silence leaves too many new mums feeling unprepared and alone.
We’re here to change that. At Gotyu, we believe knowledge is power, comfort is non-negotiable, and your body after birth deserves nothing but respect. That’s why we’ve created leakproof underwear designed for your postpartum reality so you can feel dry, secure, and you again.

The Postpartum Realities No One Talks About

Postpartum Incontinence: You’re Not Alone

Your pelvic floor just went through the equivalent of a marathon. Urinary leaks especially when you laugh, sneeze, or even just move are incredibly common. And they’re nothing to be ashamed of. It’s not a weakness; it’s biology. With the right support, it’s manageable.

Lochia: The Body’s Natural Reset

Lochia is your body clearing out the uterine lining and healing after birth.
  • Days 1–4: Bright red, heavy flow (Lochia Rubra)
  • Days 4–10: Lighter, pinkish-brown (Lochia Serosa)
  • Weeks 2–6+: Pale yellow/white, light spotting (Lochia Alba)
It can last up to six weeks and pads? Bulky, sweaty, and not exactly “feel-good” wear. You might even think:"Why is the baby not the only one, wearing a diaper?"

Gotyu: Leakproof That’s Postpartum-Proof

Our underwear isn’t just functional it’s engineered for this chapter of your life:

Why It Matters

Because postpartum recovery is about more than “getting your body back.” It’s about:
  • Resting without worrying about leaks
  • Moving freely when you’re ready
  • Wearing your favourite clothes without fear
  • Saying yes to life even when your body’s still healing
We’ve listened to doulas, lactation consultants, and most importantly, mothers. They all agree: comfort, security, and self-care aren’t luxuries. They’re survival tools.

Own Your Fourth Trimester

Motherhood is powerful. So is saying:
  • Yes, to that walk in the park without checking for pads in your bag
  • Yes, to cuddles without worrying about stains
  • Yes, to comfort, that doesn’t look like a medical supply
Postpartum is not the end of your body confidence, it’s the start of a new kind. Gotyu is here to back you up (and keep you dry) every step of the way.
Because you deserve to feel powerful, comfortable, and 100% yourself, leaks or no leaks.
Your body, your rules, your power.

 

And because we’re Gotyu, we make breastfeeding just as special, with our leakproof nursing bra that’s as beautiful as it is practical.
