Say Goodbye to your Post Pregnancy Belly

It takes nine months to grow a baby and probably longer to get your figure back. A while back I admitted to you that I’ve been wearing a Belly Bandit, which is a spandy wrap, a bit like a modern-day corset. It claims to ‘help tighten and shrink your belly, waist and hips post pregnancy.’ The million $ question is, did it work?

The difficulty in answering this question is that I don’t know how my tummy would have looked/shrunk if I hadn’t used it. Plus there are lots more factors, like the amount of chocolate I ate (too much) & any exercise done (too little).

But when wearing the Belly Bandit, I loved the silhouette it gave my body, clean lines with a nipped in waist. Post birth everything just felt big and floppy. My boobs looked like something out of Bay Watch, and I had love handles a plenty. Whereas the Belly Bandit managed to smooth it all out. I looked better in my normal clothes and my confidence grew.

I also liked that it really supported my back, so I didn’t suffer from really bad back-ache. Post Daisy, I ended up lying on the floor most evenings to relieve the pain, and this didn’t happen. In fact the days I didn’t wear it I noticed my lower back started to hurt. So that alone was a huge plus factor.

So the results? Well, I’ve lost 4 inches off my waist and 3 inches off my top hip since using it (yeah!), which I’m really pleased with. Here are the before and after photos:

Ok so I don’t have a bikini body yet, but this is a good start. That said, I do really need to start doing some exercise and quit eating so much chocolate!

Whilst pregnant I used Belly Bandit’s Upsie Belly, designed to support the bump and reduce sciatica, to read the review of that please click here.
