Waist training after pregnancy?!

Question

Hey FTM here👋 Since this is my first pregnancy I am pretty anxious about getting my body back to pre baby but in the healthiest way possible since I'll be breast feeding(if possible). I was just curious if any of y'all have heard good or bad things about waist trainers postpartum. What I have seen online it says it can help your body heal and get back to where you were before but I don't know if that's just a selling tactic. I would love to hear what y'all think 😊

Answer

I think a postpartum support band is very helpful and great for use after delivery. But waist trainers, post partum or not, is actually awful for your body and your anatomy. If you want to lose the weight the healthiest way possible, eat right and get on a good muscle toning work out routine that will help to strengthen and tone. Also keep in mind, you're making a human and your body is not going to go 100% back to its' original self and that is ok!!

Answer

I had waist trainers before I got pregnant with my first that I hardly ever used. I have a medium sized trainer (5'2 140lbs) & I couldn't fit into it until about 3 weeks after the baby. I wore it everyday along with eating healthy-ish & exclusively breastfeeding. I did not exercise. I think it was a combination of everything. I got back to my pre-pregnancy weight & some then I got pregnant 12 weeks later 😩😂 another August baby.
