Made for Mums Awards 2022 - Gold Winner - Best Health Product for Parents. What was said about the Sitz Bath by Made for Mums Awards 2022: Why it’s a winner: Those early days after giving birth can leave you feeling sore, tender, and sensitive. The Sitz Bath has been created to help soothe those delicate areas, giving you the opportunity to feel fresh and get a little relief from any tears, stitches or soreness caused by giving birth naturally. “I am 3 weeks postpartum with a 2nd-degree tear and haemorrhoids, so this has been a great and easy way to freshen up and ease my discomfort,” one of our new-parent testers said. This smooth and wipeable plastic bath is so quick and easy to use. Simply unfold it and place on the rim of your toilet bowl, fill it with warm water and sigh with relief. In the words of new-parent tester Donna: “This is ideal for postpartum freshen-ups and saves you the discomfort of standing at the sink. I would recommend it to anyone after giving birth, especially those who have experienced any type of tears or stitches, as it really helps with pain – and just makes you feel a bit more human!” Collapsible Sitz Bath A great addition to any bathroom A useful addition to any bathroom the Collapsible Sitz Bath is a new take on an old classic. Previously known as 'hip bath' or 'bidet' the Sitz Bath is a convenient piece of water saving equipment for personal hygiene as well soothing ailments such as haemorrhoids or perineal discomfort following childbirth. Also recommended for post surgery and for soothing Bartholin Cysts. The collapsing feature is easy to use and uses less storage space. Uses include: Postpartum recovery - you will definitely be sore and tender following childbirth and regular Sitz Baths can help relieve some of that discomfort whilst helping to reduce the risk of infection. Use plain warm water or a magic solution of your choice. You can do this several times a day from day one. Do not soak stitches for long periods of time, this may cause the stitches to dissolve too quickly.Haemorrhoids - a 10-20 minute soak after each bowel movement can help haemorrhoids, particularly if you add Epsom salts or Witch Hazel (follow manufacturers' instructions) you can do this up to three times a day.Bartholin's Cyst - Soak for 10-15 minutes in warm water several times a day (also consider our Reusable Hot & Cold Gel Packs for pain relief)General hygiene - an easy way for a quick freshen up, you will quickly get used to the clean feeling that toilet paper alone can't achieve.Children - great when children are potty training (and beyond) for a quick and easy wash or for soothing sore bums after a nappy change.Yoni Steam - seek professional advice before yoni steaming for instructions. Do not yoni steam if you are pregnant. Sitz Bath Instructions Unfold Push the base of the Sitz Bath firmly downwards until the base moves out. This will be quite stiff the first time, but will get easier with subsequent uses. Place on toilet Place your Sitz Bath directly on to your existing seat or you may prefer to lift your toilet seat and place your Sitz Bath directly on the rim of the toilet bowl. There are rubber pads on the bottom of the Sitz Bath to prevent slipping. Fill When the Sitz Bath is securely in place, use a jug to fill with warm water or a magic solution of your choice. You may wish to use a bath thermometer to ensure the water is at a safe temperature and will not burn you.
