Belly Bandit 2-in-1 Hip Bandit, Maternity Belly Band & Postpartum Hip Wrap

I've had this less than 24 hours but already wish I'd purchased sooner. Out of the box the belt/band is pretty stout. The elastic fabric is sturdy and very supportive. It has heavy-duty velcro which I like, and it appears to be fairly high quality. Some have likened it to an ace bandage, but I'd say it's like the Arnold Schwarzenegger of ace bandages...I wore this while sleeping to help alleviate some of the discomfort when I roll from side-to-side, and the pain I feel when I first roll out of bed. It worked immediately and the discomfort was greatly reduced. I'm wearing the band to work and it feels supportive, but maybe a little restrictive when sitting from where it's placed. I like it though and really do wish I'd purchased this sooner. I have not been suffering from back pain so am not sure if it truly would help with that. I'd say for $40 it's worth a try.

Has worked wonders for me. I am currently 9 months pregnant and still working but I cannot work with out it. I am an Optometrist so I walk, stand, sit, walk, stand sit, all day. At 7 months my lower back was hurting so bad that I had to try something. I had put this 2-1 hip bandit on my registry in hopes to use it for my post baby body but I had to just buy it myself. I am so happy I did. The only problem is my big belly makes the band curl in the front which makes the velcro stick to my clothes and has messed up one pair of leggings, but that is because my belly pushes it. So I just have to be careful when I wear it with nice pants. Great buy!

Scratchy band but great support. I lived in this my last trimester but would take it off after a couple hours because it would dig in a bit!

Omg in my second trimester, I started getting lower back pain and the pressure on my pelvic region (honestly felt like on my actual vaginal bone) was CRAZY. I vented to my pregnant friend who was a little bit further along than me, and she told me this saved her life, so I bought it right away. It’s so supportive! I would hate going on walks with my husband because of the uncomfortableness, and then the first time I wore this belt around the bottom of my belly, I was like !!!!! LIFE CHANGING! I was so comfortable, my pelvis area pain was totally non-existent and my back pain went away! I started going to the gym to stay active and I wear it to the gym too now. It’s the best thing. If you have back pain or pressure on your nether regions, definitely get this. It’s worth every cent.

I started wearing this during my morning and evening commute from work/home early in the second trimester. By the end of the second trimester however it was just not enough support. would constantly roll up in the back, which prob didn't help the support and overall just got uncomfortable. When I had increased abdominal pain, even when wearing nearly all day, I needed a different more supportive band. Purchased a better band from a different brand and no more pain! Disappointed that it did not last for 1 entire pregnancy considering the cost.

I wear this while im working on my feet a lot. I thought i would need to wear both belts but the number 1 belt (long belt) is plenty supportive. It definitely helps to keep my back supported and the full weight of the baby off my bladder. It fits very well and i am on the smaller side. 116 pre-pregnancy. currently 8 months and weigh 130. usually a size 0/25 in pants.

I bought the belly band to give me some relief on morning walks, I now where this everyday almost all day. It gives me relief off my right hip and helps my back all day. Without it I would be in pain almost daily, great price for how much relief it brings. The only downside is that you must wear it over clothes, if you don't the band itself scratches the skin. I wish you could buy a liner to wear under clothes.

It dose a good job but very itchy feeling

I'm using to help support my belly on my last trimester. I've only had it for a few days but I've noticed already a huge difference. My belly feels more supported and my back appreciates it. I hope to use it after the birth to help with my post partum figure. I would recommend this product.

Life saver! This belt really helped my pelvic pain while I was busy walking around, working. Can dig a bit when you sit but I usually just wear when standing.

Holds my belly very well and feels really comfortable.Recommended!!1
