Not perfect but I always felt better. Mine is probably too far from you but I would recommend her if you were interested. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-pregnancy-support-belt#post-2589838 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 13:00:41 +0000 catlady 2589838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@peaches1038: Lol, it's lower back but not all the way down to my butt. Also just feeling a lot of ligament pain in the front. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-pregnancy-support-belt#post-2589833 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 12:58:37 +0000 peaches1038 2589833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is your pain in your upper low back or way down by your butt crack (sorry to be crass but I can't think of another way to ask haha) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-pregnancy-support-belt#post-2589830 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 12:56:34 +0000 Foodnerd81 2589830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a Gabrialla brand one- it was recommended by a friend, didn't do much research. I had a much harder time with lower back pain with my second, and that was without a long walking commute. I think for me it was partly because my core muscles were weaker anyway, and even though I started out weighing less, I gained more weight faster, so my core didn't have a shot at keeping up. The good news is literally the minute I gave birth my back felt so much better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-pregnancy-support-belt#post-2589792 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 12:30:41 +0000 JennyPenny 2589792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used this <a href="https://belevation.com/store/clothing/mid-thigh-pettipant-boyshort/" rel="nofollow">https://belevation.com/store/clothing/mid-thigh-pettipant-boyshort/</a> even though its probably less supportive than other options. I liked that it kept my thighs from chaffing with skirts and it kept my bump all together and nice. It did offer at least some support though cause I noticed how much worse I felt whenever I didn't wear it. Super comfy for all day wear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-pregnancy-support-belt#post-2589610 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 09:54:26 +0000 Shantuck 2589610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used one to exercise during my first pregnancy but admittedly haven't used it much with this pregnancy (less time to work out!). I was pretty happy with it though. It felt like a sport bra for my belly... <a href="http://www.mombodfitness.com/store/p3/Maternity_FITsplint%E2%84%A2.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.mombodfitness.com/store/p3/Maternity_FITsplint%E2%84%A2.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-pregnancy-support-belt#post-2589539 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 08:38:37 +0000 catlady 2589539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure if it is the way I am carrying, or due to the fact that I started this pregnancy heavier than my last one, but I'm only 20 weeks and already having some trouble with my walking commute (1.5 miles each way). I didn't use a support belt for LO, but I'm thinking I need to invest in one for this pregnancy. </p> <p>Anyone have a recommendation? I'm a bit confused by the different types (and price points). </p>
