Hi Moms, I am due soon and was wondering about the Belly Bandit... Has anyone tried one? Did it work? Is it a scam? You see celebrity's saying they used one and all kinds of testimonies however I am a little skeptical. It says it helps tighten and shrink your tummy post pregnancy, accelerate healing, adds back support... what do you think?

Curious what everyone thinks.

Hi A.,

This is very late in coming and I apologize but didn't know if you ended up getting the belly bandit or decided to wait.

If you did wait I wanted to send this website to you http://www.ardysslife.com/pellison which is basically the same principle.

I had tummy surgery a few months ago and started wearing this and I enjoyed it and it was so comfortable that I decided to start selling it as well. If you just need information or another decision or choice I thought you might want to look into this because this will work with you long after the surgery and if I can answer any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thanks

Phyllis

I haven't tried the belly bandit but I did put a tight compression wrap around my stomach as soon as I got home from the hospital and wore it 24/7 and in 8 days I was back in the clothes I wore before I was pregnant with both kids!

I did the compression wrap because my mom had told me that is what they recommended in the "old days".

So did it work? I think it did! My stomach is flatter than both of my sisters who did nothing after pregnancy except breastfeed.

Good Luck!

I've not heard of the "Belly Bandit".

I can say, that after my hysterectomy about 8 yrs ago, they had me wearing an abdominal binder shortly after surgery. I wore it 24/7. I never had the swelly belly people talk about after surgery.

My Dr. said it would hold things in place because things redistribute after surgery and help me feel more comfortable. I would certainly wear it if i had abdominal surgery again and recommend it after pregnancy.

Good luck

Hi, I used something very similar to it and it does work. you have to be faithful and wear it as long as you can each day for 2-3months. It helps the swelling of your belly and it does shrink it down quickly. I highly recommend using something to help right after delivery. This is my second time to use it out of the three children I have. I noticed my belly didn't bounce back with my second child (thought I didn't need it) like it did the first time that i used it, so with my third pregnany I made sure I used it and my belly has shrunk and looks a lot slimmer. hope this helps.
