Peri bottles
Ninja Mama Postpartum Peri Bottle
Our take
Cheaper than Frida and holds 15 oz, so one fill usually lasts a full bathroom trip. The long retractable spout helps you reach without bending, though some reviewers say it leaks.
Holds 15 oz7-inch retractable, angled spoutWaterproof bag included
Consider instead: Lansinoh for a listed material and care steps.
Before you buy
Do you need it?Must-have Most hospitals send you home with one, but an angled one is easier to use in the first weeks after a vaginal birth.
Cost per monthAbout $4.5 a month over a typical 2 months of use. Our estimate; your use may be shorter or longer.
Secondhand?Buy new. Buy new.
