Towards the end of both pregnancies I could barely walk without wincing in pain. The second time around I finally got a support belt on Amazon. OMG. Having it on versus not, is literally night and day. The pain isn't all gone but I am so much more comfortable. I forgot it one day at home and definitely felt the difference. The one I bought was pretty low profile and sat under my bump. Never had an issue with it showing through my clothes.</p> <p>ETA: this is the one I had It's You Babe Mini Cradle, Small (136-180 Pounds) <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000I615Q4/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_htehwbFC2P27Y" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000I615Q4/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_htehwbFC2P27Y</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-maternity-belt-help-with-rl-pain#post-2317003 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 18:32:16 +0000 BSB 2317003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It helped with me. I didn't know it was RL pain until my sister told me what the pain was. It did feel better to hold or support my belly, which I why I ordered a maternity support belt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-maternity-belt-help-with-rl-pain#post-2316970 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 17:41:58 +0000 Little Misters Mom 2316970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Get a Serola SI belt (they sell them on amazon). The maternity stuff did nothing for me, but the serola belt took my pain from an 8 to a 2-3 on the pain scale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-maternity-belt-help-with-rl-pain#post-2316963 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 17:00:08 +0000 kiddosc 2316963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I'm only 21 weeks and my pelvis is already popping on a regular basis. Maybe I should try the belt to help hold it together for a little longer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-maternity-belt-help-with-rl-pain#post-2316953 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 16:40:48 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2316953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't have RL pain, but I had bad pelvic separation pain. I bought a cheap support belt from Target and it definitely helped, but it didn't make it go away all together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-maternity-belt-help-with-rl-pain#post-2316952 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 16:39:11 +0000 ldh112 2316952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My midwife let me borrow one and it helped occasionally but not enough for me to decide to invest in one personally. Plus, it looked super weird under clothing so I never wanted to wear it in public. RL pain sucks and really killed me towards the end. I had to stop going to prenatal yoga at around 32-34 weeks which was a bummer, because I just couldn't do anything that put pressure on my right leg unless it was very modified.. I never found any good remedies other than taking it easier when it seemed especially sore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-maternity-belt-help-with-rl-pain#post-2316936 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 16:09:24 +0000 kiddosc 2316936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am experiencing some nasty round ligament pain this pregnancy. My right leg just feels like it's going to fall off. I've heard of people using a maternity belt for back pain, but would it help with the ligament pain also? Any belt recommendations or other tips for relieving ligament pain? </p>
