How does the Belly Bandit V-Sling pelvic support band work?
During pregnancy, an increase in pelvic and vaginal pressure along with added blood flow to the pelvic region can put extra strain on your uterine wall. This can result in some pretty uncomfortable side effects, like vulvar varicosities and uterine prolapse. That’s where the Belly Bandit® V-sling comes in. Designed to address severe pelvic pain, this pelvic band supports your belly and uterine wall, lessening the overall pressure and giving you relief in the area you need it most.
Why do I need the Belly Bandit V-Sling?
With a pelvic support band, certain pregnancy pains become much more manageable. This band is ideal for women who are experiencing intense pelvic pain—sometimes referred to as “lightning crotch”—or vaginal pressure. If you’re experiencing pelvic girdle pain, uterine prolapse, inguinal or femoral hernias, vaginal or vulvar varicosities, or just generally intense pressure and heaviness in your pelvic region, wearing a V-Sling may help ease your discomfort.
How the Belly Bandit V-Sling helps with pelvic pain
The Belly Bandit® V-Sling uses flexible, lightweight straps made of high-quality neoprene to apply gentle pressure to your pelvic area, giving your uterine wall additional support and relieving feelings of discomfort and pressure. The straps criss-cross between the legs and connect to a wider band that sits low across the hips, just below the belly. This system helps the straps apply pressure to the pelvic region and also distributes the weight of your belly, relieving strained muscles that are struggling to support it effectively. Together, both parts of the V-Sling provide critical support to help relieve pelvic pain and other symptoms associated with it.
Are pregnancy support belts safe for the baby?
Yes! In fact, pregnancy bands for pelvic pain and support are often recommended by medical professionals as a safe, non-pharmacological treatment for pelvic pain associated with pregnancy. Of course, we always recommend consulting with your physician before trying something new, as they may have specific directions or recommendations for you based on your individual needs and situation.
Does the v-sling pelvic support band help with back pain?
It may! Though the V-Sling’s primary purpose is as a pelvic support band, pregnancy pains are often interconnected, so it wouldn’t be unusual at all for you to get some relief by wearing the V-Sling. If you’re looking for a support band to help specifically with back pain, check out our Upsie Belly® Pregnancy Support Band.
When should you start wearing the V-Sling pelvic support band in pregnancy?
When to start wearing the V-Sling pelvic support band is completely up to you. Some women like to wear it early on in pregnancy to help prevent pelvic pain, while others prefer to wait and see if they will experience any discomfort at all. Be sure to discuss any pelvic pain with your physician before starting to wear the V-Sling.
Can you wear the V-sling while sleeping?
Absolutely! You can wear the V-Sling day or night for extra pelvic support.
How comfortable is the V-sling pelvic support band?
When the straps are positioned correctly, it should be very comfortable. The Belly Bandit® V-Sling is lightweight and flexible with easily adjustable straps to provide maximum comfort and support.
Does the V-sling support band help with vulvar varicosities?
Vulvar varicosities are caused by an increased flow of blood to your lower body that then pools in your pelvic region rather than moving back up towards your heart. The Belly Bandit® V-Sling provides gentle pressure and increased support in your pelvic area to encourage blood circulation, which can sometimes help treat vulvar varicosities.
How to wash the v-sling?
The best way to wash your V-Sling pelvic support band and straps is by hand. If you decide to machine wash them, make sure you use cold water. Afterwards, lay the band and straps flat to dry. Do not use bleach or iron your V-Sling.

I’ve been dealing with symphysis pubis dysfunction throughout my pregnancy, which has made it hard to do simple day to day tasks ! When I use my Vsling the discomfort is almost immediately gone. I kid you not, it’s been a life saver for me in tackling my pubic pain! I couldn’t even stand for long , but while using my sling I’m up for hours :)
Get one!
This is exactly what I was needing to support my growing belly and pelvic area. I personally didn’t think it would help until I used it. It looked weird to begin with, but it’s a must everyday specially when being active around the house. I can bend down easily and move around more and feel light versus heavy from the front. The straps definitely help support. I’m currently 35 weeks(been using it for 2 weeks) and has been a life saver. Don’t think about it and order it. I should have ordered it a long time ago. This is my second pregnancy and is very much needed this time around. I’m wearing a s/m and weight 154 pounds.
I literally never take time to write reviews but this deserves one! I am 29 weeks pregnant with my 4th and have suffered from absolutely horrible pubic bone synthesis pain as well as vulvur varicose veins - to the point where I was literally in tears from pain just from walking. It was so painful! I bought this, put it on and instant pain relief - honestly it is incredible. Almost too good to be true.
If you’re on the fence, try it!
Purchased smallest size. I wish I had this during my first pregnancy. I feel everything 200x more with 2nd child and much lower. A standard belly wrap alone was NOT helping at all. I am 5’2”, petite frame, 25 weeks, gained 13lbs so far all in belly. I read other reviews that straps are too long. I’m guessing these ladies don’t have a big butt, neither do I. I found it helpful to just strap this belt on, once on I simply pull up the band from behind, similar to when you are pulling up the high waist of panty hose. This way the hips are snug and the under straps are tight. I play with it and make it fit and it’s DIVINE. I wouldn’t be able to walk and take metro to work without it. Saved my sciatica ! Helps at home for housework too. I have it loose on my photos. But if I want more security…I raise it higher on my behind/hips. I can bend and move more freely and I don’t have to unwrap it to go to bathroom. Just pull down, and back up. When at work, a long shirt covers it and I can be comfortable (as opposed to bulky belly wrap, which I do have for walks to the park with my toddler…I use it in conjunction WITH this pelvic support).
