🤱 Ninja Mama: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is a peri bottle and why do I need one after birth?

A peri bottle is a portable bidet that helps keep your perineal area clean and soothed after birth. It’s essential for vaginal births to reduce stinging and promote healing, and just as useful for C-section mums who may find bending or wiping uncomfortable. The Ninja Mama Peri Bottle is angled for easy, mess-free use.

2. Are your silicone scar strips safe for C-section recovery?

Yes! Ninja Mama Silicone Scar Strips are medical-grade, washable, and reusable for up to 14 days per strip. They’re designed to improve the appearance of healed scars after a C-section or surgery. Always consult your doctor before use. They are TGA registered in Australia.

3. Can I use the therapy packs for both hot and cold?

Yes! Our Therapy Packs are designed for both heat and cold therapy. Use warm to ease cramps or promote circulation, and cold for swelling, pain or engorgement relief. Perfect for perineal areas, C-section sites, and breasts.
Breast Therapy Packs can help with blocked ducts, engorgement, or letdown support. All therapy packs are TGA registered.

4. Why do I need special postpartum underwear?

After childbirth, you need underwear that’s soft, breathable, and high-waisted. Our Ninja Mama Mesh Underwear is stretchy and gentle on your body, sitting above C-section incisions and holding pads or therapy packs in place. Disposable or washable up to 5 times.

5. What’s included in the Ninja Mama C-Section Recovery Kit?

11. How long should I wear silicone scar strips each day?

For best results, we recommend wearing your Ninja Mama Silicone Scar Strips for 6–12 hours daily, once your scar is fully healed and closed. They can be reused for up to 14 days each. Most mums see visible improvement within 4–8 weeks.

12. Can I use the peri bottle after a C-section if I didn’t tear?

Yes! Even without tearing, C-section mums may experience swelling, sensitivity, or limited mobility. The Ninja Mama Peri Bottle allows you to gently cleanse without wiping — ideal during recovery.

13. Can I bring the therapy packs or peri bottle in my hospital bag?

Absolutely. Both the Therapy Packs and Peri Bottle are lightweight and compact, making them perfect additions to your hospital bag. Midwives often recommend them for immediate postpartum care.

14. Are the therapy packs safe to microwave or freeze?

Yes. Ninja Mama Therapy Packs are designed for dual use:

  • Microwave: Heat for 10–20 seconds (test before use)
  • Freezer: Store cold for soothing relief
Always use with the included soft sleeve for comfort and hygiene.

15. Can I use the witch hazel wipes even if I didn’t tear?

Yes! Our Witch Hazel Wipes are TGA registered and safe for all postpartum mums. They’re soothing and refreshing, even without stitches or tearing — helping reduce swelling, irritation, and discomfort.

16. How do Ninja Mama products compare to big brands?

Ninja Mama is different because it’s designed by mums, for mums — not just developed by big companies. While there are some large US brands, Ninja Mama focuses on what matters most to real women recovering from birth: comfort, ease, emotional support, and local trust.

We are proud to have be one of the very first brands to bring postpartum care products to Australia (2018)

Here’s how we stand out:

  • Comfort-first design: Our products are softer, stretchier, and more mum-friendly. From high-waisted mesh underwear to flexible scar strips and ergonomic peri bottles, everything is designed for gentle recovery.
  • TGA-registered & safe: We’re proudly TGA registered in Australia for key products like our scar strips, wipes, therapy packs, and ice packs — something many overseas brands don’t offer.
  • Real birth experience: Our products are made for both vaginal and C-section births. Whether you need perineal care or scar healing, our kits have you covered.
  • Australian-owned & trusted: We're a local brand that puts mums first. Stocked in baby boutiques, chemists, and recommended by midwives across Australia and NZ.
  • Gift-ready packaging: Our recovery kits are beautifully boxed in pink and white with heart details — making them perfect for baby showers or hospital bag gifts.
  • Bundles that save time & money: Instead of piecing together items from different brands, our curated kits include everything you need in one affordable bundle.

Mums often tell us that Ninja Mama products feel more personal, better thought out, and less clinical than overseas brands. We're proud to support recovery with practical, pretty, and proven solutions — made for real life after birth.
