The physio actually sell them i paid $10 for the band and $25 for the belt it does help..
its like the belly bands you get from the baby shops but with heaps more support it also supports your back as well,
it sounds like round ligament pain to me... one of those unfortunate things the you really just have to put up with in pregnancy (and it will get worse, sorry!). although a supportive tummy band will definitely help - especially if you are going to be walking a lot during the day.
The round ligaments help support the uterus so as your uterus gets heavier, they have to stretch and are under a bit of strain. It causes a sharp, stabbing kind of pain. Does that sound like what you've been having?
