> 24 hourI am 21 weeks with my second child and bought this to use while jogging. I havent run more than 2 miles in the last six weeks due to discomfort, and this relieved the pressure on my back and bladder and made it comfortable to run again! I wish I had bought it with my first pregnancy.

> 24 hourMy wife really likes the extra support this gives her. The only downside is that she says it is still pretty warm despite being the sport version.

> 24 hourIm a second trimester fitness instructor and needed something to help support my belly during high impact exercise. This band is great! I tried on a few other brands at a maternity store, but they all either rode up or just popped off when I started moving around. This one stays put, is relatively light-weight and comfortable to wear, and really allows me to move around much more comfortably. So far, I have used it for dance fitness instruction as well as some other individual workouts, and it has greatly improved my ability to participate and get more out of the workout. I am short and wore a size 4 pre-pregnancy. When I ordered this, I measured 40 inches around my lower back/belly. I ordered the medium so that I would have room to grow for the remainder of my pregnancy and it fits really nicely. As a shorter person, I really appreciate that the back portion of the band is not too thick (other brands went up almost to my shoulder blades). I do find it more comfortable to wear over my clothes rather than under them, but since Im only wearing for exercise at this point, I dont mind. This was more than I wanted to spend initially, but it was definitely worth it!

> 24 hourI hurt my back by pulling a muscle around 5 and half months pregnant. I bought this to help support my belly and protect my back. It does work but I gave only 4 stars because if you have an hourglass figure the band will roll and dig in because the stretchy secondary belt holds the primary belt tight through 3 velcro areas. It REALLY needs about 2 more velcro areas on the secondary belt to make it more adjustable, if it had that it would eliminate the rolling. As well when the belt rolls or folds down occassionally, as it does, sometimes the velcro will rake your skin. I HIGHLY recommend the Belevation pregnancy support belly band to wear under this belt. It protects your skin from the velcro and helps hold the belt in place as you work, very good when youre plus size. I bought the 2x and I am 37 weeks pregnant and this belt will definitely extend to the end of my pregnancy. :)

> 24 hourThe size descriptions are too vague. I bought the biggest size because I was right on the line between that and the next one down but it was HUGE and I couldnt use it effectively. With the amount of stretch it had in it, Im sure I could have used the smaller one. Another problem - it bunched up under my belly instead of staying flat (I bought this for pregnancy support but if you had any flab at all I think it would do the same). Edit - the company has since better defined the sizing options so that ups it to 4 stars. I cant speak for the bunching issue though.

> 24 hourThis is not supportive at all, when I tried it on Instead of supporting my tummy the band just rolled down and bent in half. I am super disappointed as I had to order multiple sizes to get the right one and then I got sick and did not try it on until day 41 and therefore unable to return it even though it is brand new. So now I am stuck with it and out a lot of money. I would have returned it if possible. The runs way big and it didnt support the weight of my stomach, instead it rolled down. I only came on to do a product return but option was no longer available.

> 24 hourI ordered this band after being diagnosed with SPD during my 3rd trimester. The relief it brought was immediate and effective. I even wore it at night when it was really bad. It did not make me sweaty or anything. There is also a lot of videos that show how to wear it best. Im so glad I got it.

> 24 hourEven though I am no longer pregnant! It is great for me too use. For when I was breastfeeding the baby! Good back support is necessary! And this did the job during my pregnancy and afterwards.

> 24 hourI use the belly band when I’ll be standing for a while or when working out. Currently 36 weeks pregnant and I’ve been using it for almost a month now. It’s provides great support for my lower back, between being pregnant and having a herniated disk it’s saved me when I have to walk a lot. It’s helped me out a lot when working out, especially during squats. It’s easy to adjust and has 2 other straps on the sides to provide greater support.

> 24 hourI really struggled during my 1st pregnancy to find a belly band that fit me. I started this pregnancy 30 lbs heavier (never lost the baby weight fully), and this belt is awesome. Its actually a bit longer than it absolutely needs to be, and its also soft and pretty comfortable to boot.
