Christmas list for the Vulva-Owners in your life

This Christmas, spread care by supporting the vulva owners in your life. Whether they’re pregnant, a new mumma, navigating pelvic pain, or moving through peri-menopause, thoughtful gifts can show them they are seen, valued, and supported.

Below are curated, evidence-informed ideas designed to nurture wellbeing across life stages—because everyone deserves a little comfort and care at Christmas.

The Pregnant One

Compression garments: Items such as SRC Shorts, Everform, or similar products with medical-grade compression may provide gentle external support to the lower back, abdomen and pelvis.
Pregnancy massage voucher,: A nurturing way to help ease common body aches and muscle tension during pregnancy.
Swiss Ball: Helpful for gentle mobility, posture support and practising birth positions. For most people, a ball between 55–70 cm allows the hips to sit slightly higher than the knees for comfort.
Perineal massage and Birth preparation e-book can help people understand body changes and prepare for birth.

The New Mumma

Compression garments: From simple tubigrip to medical-grade options such as SRC Postnatal Shorts, external compression may offer comfort during abdominal and perineal recovery.
Ice packs: Useful for temporary relief of perineal discomfort—also supportive for breastfeeding/lactating parents managing breast fullness
Post Partum Underwear: such as Post Partum Panties Soft, comfortable underwear designed to support early postnatal lochia and bleeding.

For the cesarean delivery - scar care pack

Thoughtful tools such as a gua sha, scar massage cup (e.g., from The Body Lane), or silicone dressings (e.g., BIEN) may support hydration and pliability of healed tissue under guidance.

Pelvic Pain

Portable TENS Machines: Can provide temporary pain relief while enabling daily activity.
Personal lubricants: pH-balanced lubricants (such as YES Organics) may support comfort with pelvic floor exercises, biofeedback work or sexual activity.
Remember: avoid silicone lubricants when using silicone-based tools.
Pelvic Wand: Devices like the BIEN Pelvic Wand or Intimate Rose Wand can assist with guided muscle stretching or release when used under professional instruction.
Dietetics referral or voucher: Accredited Practising Dietitians can provide individual guidance on bowel, bladder and nutrition factors that may influence pelvic symptoms and inflammation.

Peri-Menopause transition

Vaginal Moisturisor: Products such as YES Organics can help support comfort for dryness and sensitivity.
1-1 exercise programming or personal training strength sessions: Individualised strength or exercise sessions with a physiotherapist or exercise physiologist can support musculoskeletal health and confidence in movement during this life stage.
Menopause transition e-book: A helpful, evidence-informed guide to navigating symptoms and changes during peri-menopause.

Whether it’s comfort, knowledge, recovery support or a moment of ease, these gifts offer thoughtful ways to honour the vulva owners in your life this Christmas.
