 Post partum support belt/girdle 
Can you recommend one? 
  I didn't wear one after having DS but think I might this time to feel more comfortable and I heard it helps get your belly back a little faster.

 Re: Post partum support belt/girdle 
I'm thinking about ordering the belly bandit.  The only thing is that they suggest buying two because it takes a long time to dry after being washed, and they are not cheap   
  I wonder if there are other ones out there that are as effective for less $$.

  I was wondering how "high" it should go - just up to the waist? Higher?

I purchased the Meldela one from BRU. In a month I can let you know how good or bad it is.

  The one I got was for the entire "mid-section" of your tummy with the boning...similar to this

 Re: Post partum support belt/girdle 
I got the Loving Comfort post partum belt, especially since i had a c-section and i loved it, worked great for me. I got it for less than $20.00 on ebay brand new.

 Re: Post partum support belt/girdle 
I really want to get one also, but I'm very confused about what size to buy.  Pre pregnancy I would have been a small, but now i'm HUGE, already gained 35 lbs, all in my belly, and am only 31 weeks, and I have no idea how to predict how big I will be after I give birth.
