Exchanges and Returns
We allow you to easily exchange for a new size or product type and provide prepaid US shipping labels to get your original items back to us. We allow 60 days for exchanges so you can wait until after your baby is born to confirm your Soothe Shirt size. We allow one free exchange per product.
Conditions to Return
To ensure that every product we send out is in top condition, returns must be in their original condition, still new and unwashed with all interior tags intact. Please wait to try on your items until after your baby is born. At that time you can confirm the fit before washing.
For U.S. Returns
You can return for a refund to the original payment method if your order is less than 30 days past. We will deduct the cost of the return shipping label from your refund. Please note that shipping fees that were paid by the customer when the original order was placed will not be refunded. We are continuously working to improve our operation and supply chain to offer more value to our customers. While we cannot currently afford to offer free shipping on returns, we appreciate your understanding and support of our small business.
International Returns Refund/Store Credit Only
Due to the complexity of international shipping and duties, we do not currently offer free exchanges outside of the United States, but we do allow international customers to ship items back for a refund or store credit.

Tips to Confirm a Return Is Needed
Many mamas think they need a bigger size than they actually do. We're happy to help you exchange your shirt for a new size if needed, but would hate for you to do so only to realize you had the right size to begin with. Here are some tips to help prevent this:
-
Don’t try your Soothe Shirt on while pregnant. This will lead you to think you need a larger size than you really do (even when you are in your first or second trimester). Please wait until after your baby is born to try it on.
-
It may be difficult to get on, this doesn’t mean you have the wrong size. Many moms prefer to step into the shirt and pull it up rather than put it on over their head. Either way, please position the elastic band so that it fits comfortably underneath your breasts. The Soothe Shirt needs to fit snug for the pouch to hold the baby correctly.
-
Don’t size up to get a bigger pouch. The pouch size is the same across Soothe Shirt sizes. Your baby will gain a bigger pouch as your postpartum tummy shrinks back to your pre-pregnancy size. As your baby grows, you shrink.
So how should it fit? Your Soothe Shirt should fit snug and be tight immediately postpartum.
Here's how to make sure you have the best size
Your shirt fits well when...
-
It’s tight to get on, but comfortable once in place and wearing.
-
You can pull the nursing panels around your breasts to nurse.
-
Your baby is held in the pouch with their head on your chest above your breasts.
Your shirt is too small when...
-
The elastic band goes across your bust and won’t fit underneath. Try lifting your breasts above it and then pulling the shirt down.
-
You can’t fit a nursing panel around your breast to nurse.
-
It feels uncomfortably tight while wearing.
Your shirt is too big when...
-
You have to wear a tank or bra under your Soothe Shirt because the v-neck sinks too low when your baby is in the pouch.
-
The arm holes pull down substantially when your baby is in the pouch.
-
Your baby’s head sits below your bust while in the pouch. Their head should be between your breasts and close enough to kiss.
