I initially purchased a competitor brand as my main concern while pregnant was with how I would look postpartum.
However, when my labour resulted in an emergency c-section my focus shifted and I wanted a surgical binder.
As a type 1 diabetic and all the complications this brings, healing and recovery were my top priority, having read the reviews I decided to try bellefit.
Once I got it I loved it, and it helped in many ways.
It helped mentally so that I didn't feel like my stomach would fall out every time I moved and I felt more confident in my clothes.
Physically it was a godsend as I didn't realize how much my back would suffer after surgery.
The
c-section compression on my stomach and incision was amazing and I was able to move easier and get back to light exercise.
My incision healed quickly and my scar is now completely flat.
I believe it also helped to reduce my stomach numbness as I was able to work on strengthening exercises while wearing it.I wore the girdle from 10 days pp for 6 weeks.
Started off wearing it 23 hours a day (only took it off to shower and wash it) and dropped back to just during the day after 3 weeks.
