Belly bandit?

Any new mom's that have used the belly bandit or something like it after giving birth. Help with keeping tummy together and strengthening muscles? Thoughts.

Re: Belly bandit?

  • I loved it with my first child. Planning on using it again after this one comes. Didnt get the mommy pudge after. Helps contract your muscles back to where they belong!!!

  • I'll be using the post partum girdle belt again. I loved how I felt like it was pulling my stomach back in. I never had the pudge after losing my baby weight either.

  • I just got my pp girdle in the mail today. I'm pretty stoked about it.
  • @CaliforniaDream87 Can you kindly post a link to the one you have used? I have done so much comparison shopping but I never end up making a decision. I'd love to just order one that someone has had experience with!
  • I used the belly bandit last time. It just felt good to have my midsection supported. No one tells you how loose your insides feels one the baby space is vacant again. I literally felt like my insides were just rolling around. There are some more expensive options, but I just couldn't shell out 100+ for those other options.

  • @noobmama83 the first one I used after DS. The second one is what my BFF used and swears by. I'm going to purchase that one too.

  • I used the belly bandit. I don't know if it helped shrink anything but it felt really good to have my back supported after my csections. I don't have the post Csection shelf but I don't know whether to give credit to exercise, genetics or the belly bandit.

  • My doctor said that hospital will provide me with a belly binder if I ask, so I'm going to try that this time. With my first I used an ace bandage is all, and I didn't end up with a c-section shelf, and everything went back to place except that I had a lasting umbilical hernia. It did feel good just to have my mid-section support - particularly during unexpected sneezing :)
