Maternity belts?

I am almost 19 weeks and I am so miserable already. Walking even short distances sucks. Are maternity belts helpful at all?

    I bought the Upsie Belly myself and LOVE it. It's soft and has just the right amount of stretch. I wore a size 18 pre-preg and the XL fits me perfectly with room to spare.

  • Yes if you're having pain now it would most certainly help. I had the Gabrialla Maternity support belt. Helped with my lower back pain.

  • I got a cradle and it was great for walking but sucked whenever I had to sit...
  • I bought the Best Prenatal Cradle and am not a big fan (thankfully I got it cheap on ebay). While it definitely does it's job, I hate that the cross straps in the front are visible with all my maternity tops. I can't find crew neck shirts anywhere!!!!

  • Upsie baby was a life saver. It was soft and supportive. Plus it came with a gel pack that could be hot or cold and put into a pocket on the back do back pain. Then it can be used post as a belly wrap or with just the heat pack for a c-sec belly (see website- I don't think I described it well...).
  • Thanks Ladies for all the suggestions! You all rock.
