Return Policy

Nine Months Sober facilitates returns of items under specific conditions. Returns are allowed, provided the item is in the same condition as received, unused/unwashed, with tags, and in its original packaging. However, certain items are excluded from returns, such as those marked as final sale, gift cards, bespoke products, gifts with purchase, international orders, and personal products (Breast Milk Collector Shells, Nipple Protector) due to hygiene reasons are considered final, and no returns will be accepted.

The return window is 30 days, starting from the date the order is marked as delivered by the carrier. Return shipping fees are the responsibility of the Nine Months Sober, and the return process begins once the received items are inspected. Customer funds may be temporarily held to confirm the receipt of returned items and ensure they meet refund eligibility criteria, preventing fraudulent or unauthorized returns and ensuring a fair process.

Please be aware that this return processing policy may be subject to change at the discretion of Nine Months Sober. Any updates will be communicated to customers through appropriate channels. By continuing with a purchase, you acknowledge and agree to abide by the terms outlined in this returns processing policy.
