Yes! The belly bandit bamboo version. I had a c section and it made my stomach feel very "secure" while also helping with muscle memory.

I tried but it was so uncomfortable, I had a C section. I bought the one from destination maternity.

I had a C-section and had one that they gave me in the hospital (only after I asked, though) and I also bought a Belly Bandit. To be honest, I looooved the hospital one way more. I definitely recommend it, it felt great!

Vaginal birth and I found the belt to be uncomfortable if I sat down. Standing up is fine, but who wants to stand all the time when you just gave birth???

I had a c-section and got one from the hospital. It worked well and felt better to wear it. I did for a couple weeks.

I also had a c-section. The first time I didn't know they were an option. The second time I requested one. It was very helpful, both in making me feel more comfortable and supported, and in easing some associated pain and discomfort.
