Post baby support type thing to reduce tummy, anyone used one? Did it work?

And if so would you recommend it? Don't want to get Spanx as they are like knickers and that just sounds like a hassle post birth (too much wriggling/squeezing to get up and down), was thinking of a girdle type thing you could wear over underwear, if that makes sense. Anita makes one and I think Agent Provocateur as well, just wondering if anyone had used them?

This has been on my mind too. There's always the as-worn-by-Gwyneth-Paltrow Gowri Motha girdle, it was co-designed with Agent Provocateur, so maybe that's the one you're thinking of?

Keep running into your posts on here Pannacotta, and remember you're a few weeks ahead of me, you must be due really soon, best of luck!

Thanks Sputnik, I looked at the one on Agent P but it is like proper pants, ie you have to pull it up and down which could be hard post baby, esp if you have stitches.
The Anita one I've seen has popper things at the crotch (mmmmmm!) which I suppose you could leave undone so you get the control effect on the tum but not have to faff around every time you need a pee!
I am due on 12 May so not long, no! How about you?

As if you won't have enough poppers to deal with already
Will see if I can find a pic of this famous girdle to the stars.
Wow you're close. I'm officially 25 june but expecting it to be a few weeks sooner.

This it? Scroll to bottom of the page.

Yes thats the one, just think it looks like it might be impossible to pull up and down, not sth I want to worry about post birth - not sure how ok my pelvic floor muscles will be post second birth....
