Who wants to be told they look skinny in the hospital after giving birth?
I got the trick! Belly Bandits! It totally worked!
I ordered my Belly Bandits about a month before my due date. They give instructions on the website for how to measure in your 8th or 9th month to determine what size you will need. I had seen the Belly Bandit in various magazines well before ever becoming pregnant and kept the idea in the back of my mind for when the time came. Well, when I became pregnant they even sold them in my OB’s office, where someone suggested waiting until I came back for my post-partum appointment to get one. Don’t do that!
Use the tips and if you can remember to measure at 8 months and then measure again at 9 months to see what size to buy to wear in the hospital immediately after giving birth. I can tell you it makes all the difference. Your stomach starts to flatten out almost instantly. It’s totally worth it.
It kind of stinks that you will have to buy multiple sized Belly Bandits to change out as you shrink down, but you will be happy you did. Additionally, they provide much needed back support and I have heard they are extremely beneficial for mommy’s who have C-sections. Hang on to your Belly Bandit, because I have another post coming soon on my favorite wraps that work even better with your recycled Belly Bandit!
