Post partum belly bands, worth it?

Forgive me if this has been discussed already, I couldn't remember seeing it, but mom/pregnancy brain has hit me hard.

I didn't use one with my first, but I remember the uncomfortable feeling of "I have no stomach muscles and everything is totally loose!" in my torso for the first couple weeks post partum. Will a belly bandit help with that? Make you feel a big more secure? Waste of money? I had a vaginal delivery last time, so I'm not looking for csection support (hopefully). I found a couple locally for around $20 each (a belly bandit and an atlas band) and am thinking for that price, it may be worth a try and I can just resell if I hate it. Also wondering if I'll just feel like I'm cooking with the extra layer, PP hormones already make your temp wacky.

  • I always forgot to put mine on last time. If I remember I will wear it this time.

    I had a Belly Bandit last time and liked it for post c/s. There are some Motherhood post partum support underwear that get great reviews for post c/s that I might get this time. I have no illusions that any of these products are going to suddenly make my stomach flatter but the support over the incision is definitely worth it.
