Bellefit yes yes yes

in C-sections
A few days before my third c-section (one week ago today!) I came across a post about Bellefit and moms were saying how it helped support (etc) their ab/incision area. I did some research and ended up buying one. I put it on about 4 days pp and I must agree. The support it provides is really amazing. I walk better wearing it and the support feels great. I wanted to put this out there for moms having c-sections to look into (or a similar product) if anyone out there is interested. I wish I had this for my first 2 c-sections but I am glad I came across it this time! Thanks to whomever posted a question about it a few weeks ago!

    Is this different than what the hospital gives you?

    We don't get anything beyond some huge pads and those weird granny panties... so I'm not sure but if people get something, that's awesome!

    @krissy3435‌ how did you figure out what size to get?? Based on your pre preg measurements or what? Also, do the huge pads fit in this??
    Is this what you have?

    @harmonicbabe26‌ - I went on their website and followed the size guide. When I first started wearing it, it didn't totally fit but I am 9 days pp and i was able to latch it fully today. Totally shocked. I don't wear mine at night and I haven't worn it every day... I am not sure about the thick pad thing, I have had light spotting since I've been home so I haven't warn them w the bellefit. Hopefully this helps! The size guide on their site should help. I also could see the benefit of having 2 but it's pretty $$ as is.

    Looks more intense than what my hospital gives but same idea -- they give us a support girdle to wear post-op.

    Good grief! $100? $$$$ indeed.

    I wonder if it would be approved for flex spending.

    Last time the hospital gave me nothing in the way of support garments. This time, I'm shopping for my own. Thanks for the product recommendation!
