I am having some pelvic pain, back pain, I've had previously diagnosed sciatica in my prior pregnancies, so I'm going to try a support belt and just wondering if anyone has tried one that they'd recommend?
I use the Gabriella Support belt. I have a pretty physical job and do a lot of walking and lifting (not so much lifting these days) and this belt has been a life saver. It's a little bulky, but it gives great support. I like to fold down my full panel maternity pants down over the top of it to make it more comfortable.
I bought the belly bandit and it's pretty good. I tried on the motherhood maternity one and it hurt just having it on. It was totally uncomfortable. I do feel like the belly bandit is pretty stiff and wish it was more flexible.
