Port Melbourne, Victoria October 20, 2015 – Port Melbourne Company Offers Garments Made With the Needs of Expectant Mothers in Mind

New mothers often find that even though there is no shortage of maternity clothing to choose from, much of it isn’t really designed to address the unique challenges that expectant mothers face. Port Melbourne-based clothing manufacturer SRC Health has noticed this lack of choices for women and has now taken steps to change the way expectant mothers think about maternity clothes with a new range of maternity shorts and leggings designed to make pregnancy and recovery a more comfortable experience.

SRC Health founder Sinead O’Donovan studied the maternity clothing on the market and along with her sister Carmella, created garments which fixed the problems she found. Using a patented medical grade compression fabric, the two designed shorts and leggings which relieve the pelvic pain that many mothers experience during pregnancy. A compression panel integrated into SRC Health’s pregnancy leggings and shorts provides essential support to the pelvic floor muscles to help stabilize these muscles as well as the hips, which relieves pain and can help to provide relief from varicose veins.

Varicose veins and fluid build-up in the legs is a frequent problem in expectant mothers and SRC Health has kept this in mind by adding compression panels to their maternity leggings which run the full length of the leg. SRC Health leggings and pregnancy shorts also help to increase venous pressure to reduce the chances of developing a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) when flying.

Comfort is another factor which, according to Sinead O’Donovan, which was often lacking in the maternity clothing available when she was expecting. SRC Health’s patented compression fabric is made with women’s comfort in mind; it’s a breathable fabric which helps women stay cool even in warm weather while wicking moisture away from the body.
