How long after giving birth can I wear a belly band?

After getting pregnant, the body shape will undoubtedly change, especially the abdominal muscles will become very loose, and the clothes will look very ugly. Therefore, many pregnant women not only try to eat reasonably during pregnancy to control the weight gain within the normal range, but also the most frustrating thing after giving birth is how to quickly restore the out-of-shape body shape. Some mothers think of using a restraint belt. So, how many days after giving birth can they use the restraint belt?

You can use the restraint belt on the day after giving birth or on the second day. Many pregnant women often use belts for shaping and want to improve their body shape, but in fact belts do not have this effect. However, using belts can indeed have a firming effect on the pelvis, joints and tendons. There are medical and non-medical restraints. For some pregnant women who have caesarean sections, medical restraints can be used. Wearing the restraints with the help of a doctor can help heal the wound and relieve the pain of the wound.

There are many restraints on the market now, and the prices range from low to high. Pregnant women must be vigilant when choosing, because many low-priced restraints are made of chemical fiber materials. This type of restraint is very uncomfortable to use. If cheap chemical fiber is used, there will also be a pungent smell. After long-term use, it will irritate the skin and respiratory system. Therefore, you must not be greedy when purchasing, and never buy fake and inferior restraints.

How long after giving birth can I wear a restraint belt?

We need to understand the appropriate time to use the restraints, not too early, but not too late. If the pregnant woman chooses a cesarean section and the body is not under too much strain during delivery, a restraint belt can be used with the help of a doctor the next day after delivery, which can accelerate the healing of the wound and relieve the pain caused by the wound. For pregnant women who choose to give birth naturally, if they did not undergo surgery during delivery, they can wear a belt on the second day. However, if they underwent episiotomy or other similar surgeries during delivery, they should not be used until the wound has healed. It should be noted that when wearing a belt, the time should not be too long, and it should be removed when eating and sleeping. If the belt is too tight, it will put a lot of pressure on the abdomen and will have a certain impact on breathing, etc. In addition, the body of a woman who has just given birth has not yet fully recovered, so it is necessary to give the body a stress-relieving environment appropriately.

The use of a traction belt requires attention to many aspects of the problem, because if it is used incorrectly, it will cause harm to the body, and in severe cases it will cause uterine prolapse and cause damage to the uterus. Pregnant women with different body shapes need to wear different restraints. For pregnant women with thinner bodies, their hips are smaller, so they should choose short-sleeved binding belts. For pregnant women with fatter bodies, their hip circumference is relatively large, so they need to choose medium-length binding belts. Only by choosing the right binding belt can you restore your body shape more effectively.
