The Birth Store | Peri Bottle
'The hospital bag essential that you didn't know you needed'.
The peri bottle is designed for your postpartum care. It is easy to squeeze and is angled specifically to reach your perineum area with ease. The bottle has a capacity of 300mls. It can be filled with warm (not hot) and cold water depending on your preference. Please discuss the use of other products/washes etc with care provider- particularly in the presence of tearing and/or sutures.
You can use your peri bottle for:
- Reducing stinging when using the toilet after birth
- Reduce irritation of tears/stitches when cleaning perineum area
- Making cleaning easier with haemorrhoids
- Ensuring area is kept clean and dry to reduce risk of infection
The bottle comes with an easy to carry bag and is partially collapsible to avoid taking up too much room in your hospital bag.
These are also used for baby care - you can keep this for the times when your baby may have nappy rash.
