  3. (While the pad is still in sleeve), shake slightly to commence cooling
  4. Tear sleeve open and remove the pad. Peel off paper adhesive and place into underwear

HOW IT WORKS

Why is the Cool Couchie Pad an essential for your postpartum couchie?

After childbirth, the vaginal area can be sore, swollen, and uncomfortable due to stretching and potential tearing. Cooling down the vagina provides pain relief by reducing swelling, numbing nerves, and soothing irritation. Cold temperatures help constrict blood vessels, reducing inflammation and promoting healing. Using the Cool Couchie Pad designed for postpartum care is effective in providing cooling relief to the perineal or vaginal area.

How does the Cool Couchie Pad work?

The Cool Couchie Pad has a very effective cooling functionality which gives you more comfort. This cooling functionality is achieved with a mix of water and calcium ammonium nitrate pearls inside the pad. When this pad is folded in half, the pearls breaks and therefore releases the cooling functionality. Isn't that cool? No need for those DIY padsicles of Pinterest!

What is the recommended use of the Cool Couchie Pad?

We recommend that you pack two Cool Couchie Pads in your hospital bag for those early hours after delivery. Please make sure that when you pack these pads, you are not allowing much pressure on them, i.e., do not put heavy items on top of the pads.

After you have delivered your beautiful baby, please take a shower and let a partner help you in activating the cooling mechanism as described below.
