Postpartum band
Has anyone used these? The bands that wrap around your stomach to help tighten and keep everything together etc? Looking to see if it's worth it or if I should just skip it.

Postpartum band
I originally did after my c-section and then my OB said not to. I don't remember exactly how it was explained so I'm not sure if it was because I had a c-section or in general.
My stomach bounced back pretty quickly.

If you want I have one from the hospital PM me your address and I'll send it probably Friday when I get out a few hours. Same as above poster, I couldn't wear it after the first 24 hours post c section. Hospital had it on me only for 24 hours

I don't know anything about these but the other day my mom took a waist measurement so she can get me one! She said that when I leave the hospital I'd be around the size I am not, and then as my stomach goes back she'll get me a smaller one.

Re: Postpartum band
I didn't and my stomach was fine. I would imagine it is different for everyone.

Re: Postpartum band
I borrowed a friends belly bandit but it was too small for me and VERY uncomfortable. I never wore it and felt it bunched up so much on me. I just wore spanx after a few weeks. This time around I might buy myself the correct size Belly Bandit, or even that new corset they have and give that a whirl. Honestly, between learning to breast feed and still bleeding I honestly didn't give a crap about waist "training" or whatever for quite a few weeks.

ETA: I had a July baby and the belly bandit was so heavy and hot.
