Support Belts

How many if you are using a support belt? It seems early, but my back gets so sore by the end of the day. It gets worse when I do a lot of activity or from carrying my preschooler.

I never used one with my first pregnancy, but I only worked two days a week and sat at a desk. Now I work 40 hours a week on my feet and chase a three year old.

I'm going to ask my chiropractor about them on Wednesday, but I'm curious what other ladies are doing.

Re: Support Belts

  • I'm 23 weeks and my chiropractor suggested one, I got the medela one from babies r us - stretchy. Seems OK, not great for me because I sit quite a bit and it digs in. But it's great for those days when I'm running around a lot. I started having sciatic pain as well as painful stretching sensation in my lower abs when I'm on my feet a lot. My friend is letting me borrow her stash on Friday, I'm hoping she has a variety of brands so I can try out other types.
