Sizing Tips

How should your Belly Wrap fit?

If you’re Belly Bandit Belly Wrap is 1-3” shy of closing, don’t exchange it for a larger size, wait a day or two and try again. Here’s another tip, lying down on your bed with the Belly Wrap under you to fasten the Velcro allows for a better trip.

Wrinkles & Crinkles are Normal!

Yes, creases are normal. The Belly Wrap conforms to your body, making it easier for you to move comfortably and perform your daily activities. Much like a bandage, the appearance of your wrap will change due to normal wear, so you can expect to see creases and waviness. This will not affect the job of your wrap!

How often should you wear your Belly Wrap?

For best results, we recommend wearing your Belly Wrap immediately postpartum 24/7 (taking it off to shower) for a minimum 6-10 weeks. Of course, wear-time ultimately depends on your personal comfort level. Some women wear the wrap all day and night while others for only a few hours at a time. The goal is to get the support you need and to aid in recovery, so do what feels right for you!

*Postpartum swelling can make sizing your Belly Wrap challenging. Our Belly Wrap Extenders gives you up to 9 inches of additional adjustability, so you don’t have to worry about purchasing a Wrap that’s too small or just shy of closing!

Description

Over a decade ago, we introduced Belly Bandit® Belly Wraps to help support your belly, waist and hips post-delivery.

Our famous Belly Wraps are designed to help you look and feel your absolute best after delivery – because when you deliver, so do we! A post pregnancy belly wrap is designed to offer much-needed support through compression technology. Our Original Belly Wrap features a unique Power Compress Core™ that applies 360 degrees of targeted compression around your belly, waist, and hips to keep you feeling secure and supported tucked in and secure. After birth, your body is in a state of healing and recovery. A postpartum belly wrap like the Original Belly Wrap can aid in your recovery by promoting mobility and providing core muscle support.

Why You'll Love It

Our Power Compress Core™ applies targeted compression, which may help:

Support your belly, waist, and hips
Strengthen core muscles weakened during pregnancy
Helps you get back to your daily activities more quickly
Encourage better posture, especially important during breastfeeding
Offer support while exercising

Details Matter

Features our exclusive, latex-free Power Compress Core™
Up to 9" of adjustability so you can continue to tighten the wrap as you size down

How To Wear

The ideal fit for your Belly Bandit® Belly Wrap is a snug one. The first time you wear your wrap, it may barely close. That's OK. You want to have the length of the Velcro® closure available so you can keep tightening your wrap as you recover and size down. We recommend wearing your Belly Wrap post-delivery as soon as your comfortable, for a minimum of 6-10 weeks. However, many women find wrapping to be effective long after this initial period. If you have any concerns about being "too late" for the Belly Bandit Belly Wrap, we encourage you to check out our Mother Tucker® Shapewear Collection!

Top FAQs

How does the Original Belly Wrap Work?

A post pregnancy belly wrap is designed to offer much-needed support through compression technology. Our Original Belly Wrap features a unique Power Compress Core™ that applies 360 degrees of targeted compression around your belly, waist, and hips to keep you feeling secure and supported tucked in and secure.

Why do I need the Original Belly Wrap?

After birth, your body is in a state of healing and recovery. A postpartum belly wrap like the Original Belly Wrap can aid in your recovery by promoting mobility and providing core muscle support.

The Original Belly Wrap can also provide support while exercising and help with strengthening muscles weakened during pregnancy.

How long after birth should I wear this belly wrap?

Be sure to consult with your care provider about when to wear a belly wrap.

How many hours should I wear a postpartum belly wrap?

A postpartum belly wrap can be worn day or night, as long as you’re not experiencing discomfort. The goal is to feel snug and secure. Remove your belly wrap to shower, and whenever you feel like taking a break.

Do postpartum belly wraps really work?

A postpartum belly wrap provides sustained, targeted compression to support your recovery and help you look and feel your best after delivery.

Can I sleep with this belly wrap?

Consult first with your doctor, but we recommend wearing it 24/7 (except when showering) for at least the first six weeks after delivery. Don't continue to use if you experience any discomfort.

Can I use this belly wrap post C-section recovery?

Consult with your doctor before using a belly wrap post C-section.

How do I know which size belly wrap to buy?

We recommend measuring your belly during your eighth month of pregnancy and using the size guide on our website to find your recommended size. Keep in mind that everyone’s body recovers differently after birth.

The Original Belly Wrap also features up to 9 inches of adjustability, making it easy to size down as you progress in your recovery. Note: If you are able to close your new, unworn postpartum belly wrap past the closure, it is too big and will need to be exchanged for a smaller size.

Reviews

so thankful!

Had a laparoscopic Hysterectomy and this has saved me being back to work :)

The Spinal Support 👌🏼

This is my second belly band that I have had over the past 8 years of my marriage and our child bearing, and I swear by it! Besides the way that it helps with muscle memory, returning the rib cage to its previous position, and the hips as well- it gives support in your spine that feels so incredibly good after having an epidural and 6 months with a belly/weight in front of you.
Thank heavens for these bands- they truly have made my recoveries so much faster after labor and delivery!

Great product

I haven't used this a ton yet since having my baby, but when I have, the experience has been good. I was worried it would be super uncomfortable to wear but it's not too bad. My biggest issue is I'm not sure if it's supposed to sit higher or lower on my body. Also, I followed the sizing chart and it's a great fit. I'm glad I didn't spend money on the extender because I definitely didn't need it.

Not worth the money

This is the most uncomfortable wrap! It slides up as you move/sit to the point where your lower stomach isn’t covered. It’s definitely isn’t long enough either (I’m pretty short too). it also folds. The material is tough so as it slides and folds it becomes SUPER uncomfortable and kinda of painful. I even bought the attachment to it thinking it was just too small but even with the extension to it, it still does the same thing. Honestly was not worth the money and I should have returned it.

Hi Rayana:
Thanks so much for your honest review. It sounds like you would have been a better match with one of our Belly Wraps created for shorter waists. We have the Luxe Petite that was made just for your body style. If you would like to try it please give customer service a call and we'd be happy to provide you a personalized discount!
