    I used the belly bandit for my last pregnancy but I couldn't wear it as often as I wanted.
    During the first month I was sitting a lot due to recovering from the CS and breastfeeding what seemed like all day long and the belly bandit kinda rode up along the sides (that could also be from my wide hips and not just from the sitting). This time I am going to try the C-panty! I'm pretty excited about it! I like the feeling of keeping everything together in my mid section and it does help with healing process.

    I didn't use the belly bandit brand, but I used a post partum girdle (aack, I hate that word, but it was a girdle) that I found in Amazon.  I think it helped pull everything in, plus I had read that the first few weeks post partum is the only time you can shrink your hips back to their old size.  I don't know if any of that is true, but it made me feel better about spending $25 on the girdle.  Eventually, I was able to get back into my old jeans, so my hips didn't spread. I have no clue if that was because I wore the post partum support band though.
