Belly band after c section?

Anyone planning on using one? How soon after a c section can you wear it? Did you buy one or did the hospital give it to you?

I bought mine. I tried using it a few days ago (3 weeks since my c section) and it felt fine while I was wearing it, but when I took it off my incision starting hurting really bad, so I am going to wait another week or so before I try wearing it again.

I tried one. It did nothing. I bought it. Hospitals don't give them.

Biggest waste of money...Mine killed my incision and caused me a lot of pain. NOT worth it!!

I delivered at st Charles and they put one on me right away and had me leave it on for the first 24 hours or so. After that I just wore it when I needed extra support like when walking to the nursery and in the car on the ride home from the hospital. I haven't worn it since I got home though.

I didn't do it after my c-section last time and I wish I had. My belly is still saggy.
