Does belly band help after pregnancy?

Question

Im 3 weeks post delivery and my tummy still feels so loose and heavy. My mom is suggesting the cloth binder thing. Did the belly band actually make a difference for you or is it just hype?

After my C section the belly band gave me lovely support when getting up and moving around. It made me feel held together in those tender first weeks. My doctor told me when it was okay to start using it though, so do ask yours.

I used one after my normal delivery and it did help my posture and back while feeding. Dont expect it to magically flatten the tummy though, that takes time. It's more about support than shape honestly.

It helped me feel more supported in the early days, especially with all the bending for baby. I didnt wear it too tight or too long. Worked nicely as one part of the recovery, not a magic fix.
