A belt is indeed needed during
pregnancy days for abdominal support to mom’s belly. During pregnancy phase,
women abdomen starts expanding across the uterus exerting pressure on the
backbone and pelvic girdle. The pain at this moment will be enormous and , so,
will be difficult to manage day to day
work. Then after pregnancy the skin under abdomen starts shrinking for 6 months
secreting hormones, estrogen, progesterone and relaxin loosening the abdominal
muscles. It is advisable to wear a maternity support belt after child birth to adhere to the
natural process of recovery. For postpartum support , mothers should use
medically approved quality support belt. Theses belts come in different sizes
depending on hip size. Mothers can wear it for 12 to 24 hours in a day for a
period of 120 days as long as they feel comfortable till they are back to
original shape. Medical compression is
available in different designs depending on what suits to natural recovery and
C-section recovery.
In diastasis recti condition ,
there is abdominal separation caused due to the pressure against the abdominal
wall during pregnancy. Hormones also
weaken connective tissue allowing abdominal separation happen with ease.
This after c-section nuance is taken
care by the corsets specially designed by very selective companies.
After pregnancy days , mothers
look for corsets and girdles to regai their pre pregnant shape and also recover
from pain caused due to abdominal expansion. Mothers look for wearing a corset
that normally can be used as undergarment and should not hamper during their
normal working hours. Looking at the requirement , corset companies have
designed corsets in the form up pull up
and corset with a zipper. Pull up corset is meant for child birth with
natural recovery and zipper one meant for child birth with c-section delivery. Post
pregnancy belly no more takes time to heal its back pain, spinal
realignment, ligament stabilization, organ repositioning with the help provided
by these postpartum support products.
There are also other designed
corsets available for women before child delivery period.Normally these corsets
were meant for support from bulging abdomen. These kind of compression garment
should not be mistaken with corsets designed for after pregnancy. So,women
should able to differentiate between the designs which could facilitate their
different requirements at different time.
Mothers are recommended to
consult with doctors before taking any decision regarding back pain , pre
pregnancy shape recovery or manage body shape after pregnancy. There are many
companies who promote and sell corsets online without understanding its actual
use for the pregnant women. Also, the material or fabric used for the product
may not be medically suitable for comfortable use. So, only medially approved
and proven corset should be used during pregnancy. You cannot risk your life
for style only.
