Pregnancy belt

[Zlong94]

Hi I cannot find the answer anywhere?! When do you wear a pregnancy belt? Is it just for when your standing or sitting down aswell???

I only used it when standing.Was too uncomfortable to sit in as pushed my bump up.

Whenever it’s comfy to wear it, and only if it helps... I wear mine basically any time other than sleeping :)

It’s recommended that you wear them frequently for short periods of time. Mine says three hours maximum at a time so you don't become reliant on it although in my last pregnancy I wore one all day for 12.5-hour shifts as I was on my feet constantly and getting myself into awkward positions.

I wear mine for running only at the moment but I’m only 16 weeks.

Hi ladies, would anyone mind recommending one please? There are so many I dont know where to start and dont want to waste money. Thank you :)

I’ve been pretty impressed with this for the price. My sciatica and hip pain post-run have completely stopped since using it. The booklet it comes with is really good as well.

I wanted a ReCore Fitsplint but I coudn’t find one in stock anywhere and they are super expensive so I’m glad I settled for a cheapy one for now!
