PostPartum Belly belts

Has anyone tried or heard of the belly belts for after baby?   Do you know how early you should start wearing them?    I'm looking at the Bellefit brand.  I have 7 weeks left and I'm huge, and I cannot wait to start really exercising. I've also heard that these torso belts are the thing to use.   Positive and negative comments are welcome.

    Hi there!  FTM but I was looking at Bellefit as well.  I have heard people post/write about how it is helpful to shrink back/support your stomach/back, but I have also heard naysayers as well, so I'm sure there are arguments both ways.  I figure I'll give it a try and see if it helps!

    As for when to start wearing, across the board I have heard suggestions to start wearing the bands as soon as you are discharged from the hospital.  Again, all just things I have read...don't have any personal experience.

  • I already have my Bellefit corset. I cannot wait to wear it, plan on it the day I leave hospital. I love how the bottom fastens so you don't have to take the whole thing off to go pee. I'd say it's going to work if you get the right size (which is key) and wear it soon after birth up until 6 weeks at the least.
  • I got a bellybandit today for pp, from everything I've been told they work. Just wear it from delivery until 6 weeks pp as much as you can tolerate. Finding the right size is key too, I took them out of the box in the store to see where they were in relation to my current belly and ended up needed a size smaller than I would've thought.

    Im leaning towards a bellybandit as well
  • I've been looking at the Bellefit as well, and I think I'm going to order mine soon. I have heard it helps tremendously with back pain, so that's what really sold me.
  • I bought the bellefit after my second pregnancy and hated every minute I wore it, especially because it was so expensive and I splurged for the dual closure. I wore mine for 6-8 weeks, I'm not exactly sure when I stopped. But I didn't get the results you see in the progress pictures and I wore it religiously.
