How to choose a postpartum belly belt

After giving birth, women will find that they have a lot of fat on their abdomens, and the fat will not go away for a long time. In order to look thinner, many women choose to wear belly belts. However, there are many kinds of belly belts on the market. How to choose a good belly belt for postpartum women? First of all, mothers should pay attention that it is best not to use a belly belt within the first two months after delivery. Secondly, they should choose a belly belt that suits their size and should not be too small.

Notes on using a belly band:

1. Use abdominal pants under the guidance of a doctor;

2. It is best to use the abdominal pants and abdominal belt only during the day and untie them when sleeping at night to ensure good blood circulation;

3. Don’t use it too late. It is generally more effective within 1-6 months. Do not use it for too long each day.

Mothers who give birth naturally:

You can use a belly belt and belly pants after giving birth. The belly belt can help reduce the waist circumference after giving birth, while the belly pants can help effectively tighten the abdomen and waist circumference, reduce fat on the buttocks, and prevent back pain.

Mothers who underwent cesarean section:

Generally, a belly band can be used two days after delivery. It can help mothers who have undergone cesarean section to support their waist and reduce the pain caused by the curvature of the abdomen.

Usually, a belly band can be used the day after a normal birth. However, mothers who have given birth naturally should wait until the wound is no longer painful before wearing it to avoid aggravating the discomfort. It is recommended to choose a material with better breathability, such as gauze. In addition, please note the following points:

1. People with skin allergies should pay special attention to the choice of materials. If the feeling of falling after childbirth is already very severe, it is best not to use a belly band. In severe cases, it may cause uterine prolapse.

2. Pay attention to the direction and usage of the abdominal belt. For example, women who give birth naturally use a belly belt mainly to lift up the sagging part of the body, so they must pay special attention to the direction and usage of the belly belt. For example, when using a wrap-around abdominal belt, do not tie it directly on, but wrap it from bottom to top and from tight to loose, which can indirectly reduce the possibility of pelvic organ prolapse.

3. There is no need to tie it too tight. Generally speaking, the tightness should be just enough to fit a palm.

I believe that all mothers have a deep understanding of how to choose a belly belt after reading this. The six months after giving birth is the best time to restore your figure. Choosing the right belly belt and the right diet can help you recover your body in good health.
