Belly support belt

yesthisiskim0401

Today at my 30w check up it was recommended to get a pregnancy support belt. I work retail and baby is sitting on my right hip (literally) so I'm in a lot of pain most days. I never had one with DD. 

Any STM that used one have any rec's on a brand?

I have this one.  It's not much to look at but it's pretty comfortable and does seem to help

I got one from motherhood for my pelvic and back pain.  Its very itchy - I have sensitive skin and I can't let any of it touch my skin or else it gets very irritated. I stopped wearing it after awhile because it wasn't helping my pain and it was really uncomfortable.  I'm going to try physical therapy next.

I have the one that's just a single band and I find it helpful too. I went to a maternity store (Destination Maternity) and tried a couple of find one. I found the one that pp posted was also comfortable. Do you have a store near you that has that? It's not at all comfortable to sit with, but it is great for walks.

I have the Gabriella band, I've used it for running with great results. Very good back support, and my belly feels very secure. I'm only a FTM so I don't have tons of experience, but it was highly recommended to me by women who are avid runners (which I'm not but I still wanted something good). I imagine it is more than adequate for daily support as well.

That is pretty much what the MW told me to get. Thanks!

I will have to find out if any local stores carry them. I'm hoping they will let me try them on, if possible.

I also tried some on at a local maternity store. I find it really does help when you are on your feet a lot. It is awful to sit down in though, so I'm just wearing when I do stuff around the house or am going to be walking a lot.

 I was just talking about getting one last night.  My back is always hurting me.
