Belly Bandit Upsie Belly Pregnancy Support Belt – Comfortable Pregnancy Abdominal Band for Lower Back & Hip Relief – Soft 12″ Adjustability Fit with Anti-Dig Closure – Cream, Small

As Has Been Said IT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY and outshines all other belly bands!!
This product is amazing. I cannot say enough wonderful things about it.I am 34 weeks pregnant and this is my 3rd pregnancy. Throughout the end of my 2nd pregnancy I could barely walk without excruciating pain. I later found out that I had SPD (moderate to severe pubic bone pain due to the spreading or separation of the ligaments in the pubic symphysis area). During my second pregnancy my sweet husband bought me several prenatal massages to try and treat the pain, but the relief only lasted a day or two at best.I was hopeful that maybe with this pregnancy I would be okay, but for the last few weeks I’ve been in agony again. And once again we were looking at massage therapy to relieve the pain. While waiting for my ob to return from delivering a baby so I could have my biweekly check up, I decided to go to a nearby spa and see if they could fit me in for a prenatal massage that day. Given their proximity to an ob’s office, they have a lot of products catered to pregnant women.As I began describing my pain to a spa employee, she whipped out one of these belly bands and suggested I give it a try. She measured my belly and suggested I try on a medium (I am 5′ 10″ and 200 lbs and measured 42″ around my belly). It was INCREDIBLE. The relief was immediate. I was absolutely stunned, walking around the spa with absolutely no pain. I was thrilled… until she mentioned the price. $70?? I was sure I could find something cheaper that would work just as well. So I called my local Babies R Us and they assured me they had a vast selection of belly bands for me to choose from.So after my ob check up, I went to Babies R Us and tried on a few bands. None of them really helped, but I decided to go ahead and purchase one of the cheaper ones. I figured any support was better than no support.After I got home I strapped on the cheaper band and gave it a test run. After nearly an hour of wearing the cheaper band, I realized how wrong I was. Not only did it just not support my belly, but it would roll up on itself and then it would be digging into my back and sides.My husband ultimately insisted that I return the less expensive band and he ordered this one from Amazon. And I am SO happy he did!! I have worn this belly band for 2 days now and I feel almost normal; no pain, just bigger around :DIf you are wondering if this is worth the price, let me reassure you, IT IS and then some! I spent around $200 during my last pregnancy trying to find this kind of relief. I wish I could go back 3 years and give myself this band and save myself $130.As far as the complaints about the Velcro not working after a few washes, it makes me wonder if they are following the washing directions. Hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry. If they were washed in a machine that could damage the Velcro. I imagine using any type of fabric softener might do that as well.I have only had mine a few days though. I will update in a few weeks.***UPDATE***I used this successfully through the end of my third pregnancy and it was a life saver! I had no problem with the Velcro losing grip.My band saw me through the last 6 weeks of my last pregnancy. My sister ended up borrowing it for the last 2 months of her last pregnancy (she has a shorter torso than me and struggles with carrying babies for a lot longer before it becomes a problem for me). She said it was great and asked if she could borrow it her next time around :)I am pregnant again and am relieved to know that I have this ready and waiting as soon as I start to need extra support.I love this product!!

Helpful for relieving back pain
I’ve had really sever back pain this pregnancy (needing physical therapy) and was recommended that I get one of these by my physical therapist (not this particular model, but this brand was named). I hesitated a little bit on the price, especially since I didn’t use any support in my last pregnancy, but ultimately got it with future pregnancies in mind. I do think it’s helped make a difference in the amount and severity of my pain (in addition to the exercises I’ve been prescribed and icing/applying heat). I didn’t give 5 stars because, while I know it might seem self-explanatory, it didn’t come with any instructions at all about how tightly you should wrap it and I’ve had to wait until I can see my physical therapist again in order to check if I’m using it properly. It only comes with wash instructions and that’s only because those are printed directly onto the fabric. I personally wouldn’t recommend sitting with it, it sits a bit awkwardly, but definitely feels helpful to wear while standing doing dishes, folding laundry, or other similar tasks.

Der Gürtel hat mir meinen Alltag erleichtert. Ich kann ihn nur empfehlen.

J’ai fait confiance au premier et seul avis donné pour cette ceinture, et j’en suis ravie !! Enceinte de mon 3ème enfant et à 7 mois de grossesse, je commençais à mal supporter le poids du bébé, le ventre était très lourd, le dos vouté par le poids du ventre et en plus des contactions dus à un déménagement sont venues se rajouter. Dès que j’ai commencé à porter cette ceinture je me suis sentie soulagée je n’ai plus eu la sensation de se ventre lourd et tombant, la ceinture maintient parfaitement et sans bouger. L’emprise de la ceinture sur le dos est parfaite et soulage vraiment le mal de dos, quant aux contractions, je ne sais pas si c’est lié, mais je n’en ai plus.Je recommande vivement cette ceinture même si elle est chère c’est un confort indispensable au quotidien ! Sachez aussi que l’on peut glisser dans un emplacement sur le dos de la ceinture un patch fourni avec.

Excellent product. Only just heard about the Upsie Belly by Belly Bandit 6 months into my 3rd pregnancy and got it straight away, next day! I’d made do with high street support bands & big support pants for previous pregnancies which don’t compare. Great price at £55. These hold their value well so I can sell after finished with it. Well worth it and doubles as a corset/girdle for first few weeks post partum. Perhaps I could have avoided some stretch marks if I’d used this earlier. It’s strong, comfortable and very well designed with plenty of adjustment room for all shapes and sizes. I’m a size 8 with short torso and wide hips. Size small was perfect for me. I’ve also bought the Belly Bandit Body in extra small for after baby arrives once the Upsie belly gets too loose. All my friends at pregnancy yoga tried it on and were convinced to buy their own. Don’t do without it.
