Belly Belts??

[NaeNae]

Hi There,

Just wondering if anyone has used belly belts, not the bands that go under clothing, the ones that offer support for the pelvis and back etc. I am thinking I might get one just to offer some support for my pelvis but don't know whats out there aside from the sportstek ones and they all seem good I have no idea which one I should go for.

Any ideas would be appreciated

I am using a maternity support belt that they physio gave me. I didnt use one with DD1 and I had no issues with my pelvis until 30 weeks with DD2. If you need the support belt I would recommend going to a physio so they can give you one that supports where you need it most.

Hi NaeNae,

I needed some help after DS was born (c-section). In our Women's hospital is a great physio section and they gave me a support band. If you are booked at a public hospt maybe their physio section can help you for free? They looked like the knee supports lots of people wear - fawn coloured with lighter stripes through it and only one piece ie you had to step into it and pull it up to your hips/belly. Very comfy though!

Good luck with everything...

That is Tubi-Grip. There are other support belts that sit low over the pelvis (there is a pic in my gallery) that really pull your hips together (great if concerned about butt size ) but they are more heavy duty and not very comfortable for constant use, but you do what you have to.
