After birth tummy sucker suggestions

I've tried the Belly Bandit, but that didnt work for me, it kept riding up my torso instead of staying on my baby fat. Does anyone know of a product which works well? Would definitely like to wear the product all the time if possible to reduce the fat sooner than later like my other births..

Although I didn't have a c-section, my dr. ordered me a wrap that patients typically get after having a c-section or other abdominal surgery....so it was FREE.

It was basically a giant velcro stretch bandage. For me, it went from a bit under the boobs to over the hips....I really liked it and it definitely helped. and you could adjust/move it to where you wanted the support.

I also purchased something by Shrinx Hips for my hips and wore that as well. I got this before I got the one from the hospital because I didn't know what I'd be getting. Had I known, I probably wouldn't have needed/gotten it.

Yup this works too! I was about to order the belly bandit ; now beginning to rethink it. I'm having a csection so I will definitely would need help shrinking my belly.

first time around i bought a tummy thing by squeem. it was good and worked well, but it only went from my upper hips to under boobs and i remember thinking at the time i would have liked something for my lower hips and even thighs. my dominican friend said hispanic women know their shit when it comes to this sort of thing so i just bought what she told me to, which is this: fajas salome

i havent worn it yet so i cant comment, but my friend had her baby in april and looks fabulous and thin.

do you ask for that belly thing when you're in the hospital? or do you ask about it before?

I had c sections. You can ask after you give birth. They always have them. This time around my dr. didn't even order it for me. I asked him about it and he was like oh just ask the nurse and she'll bring you one. It definitely helped and they recommend it because it helps push ur uterus back into place. I wore mine for a few weeks.
