anyone using a belly band for extra support in their hips/back? and if so does it make a difference?

I just got one a few weeks ago. I love it. I have a lot of pelvic pressure and back pain. I wear this throughout the day especially when I’m running errands or when my daughter(she’s 2) is extra clingy and needs to be carried.During my first pregnancy, my daughter dislocated your ribs. They are starting to become inflamed and the top band helps relieve the pressure off my ribs too.

It squeezes my belly so I stopped wearing it.

I got one a few weeks ago to wear only at work. At my job I am constantly going from sitting down, to standing up, to sitting back down and standing up again🙄. By the end of my shift, my back and lower abdomen felt like I had done an extreme workout and was very sore. My nurse practitioner recommended I wear one while at work, and it has really, really helped!! I got mine off of amazon.

I tried one with both of my pregnancies and they did nothing except waste my money. It might help some people but for me it did nothing.

Never used one, but I'd absolutely reccomend Blanqi tank tops. I worked up until two days before I delivery (doctors orders) on my feet for 8-9 hours a day with no issues when wearing the tank.
