How long after giving birth should I use a belly belt?

Pregnancy is a very special period in a woman's life, and it is also a very sacred moment, because pregnancy is a process of nurturing life, which is very important for a woman, because it can make a woman more perfect. However, pregnancy and childbirth bring great troubles to women. After giving birth, fat on the waist and abdomen quietly appears, which is very ugly, and the figure gradually deforms. So, how long after giving birth should you use a belly belt? Let’s find out together.

During pregnancy, a woman's uterus becomes larger and the abdominal wall becomes loose. In addition, the force applied during childbirth causes the belly to become larger and the abdominal muscles to become loose, greatly affecting the beauty of the body. Therefore, many mothers choose to use a belly belt after giving birth. Using a belly belt within a week after childbirth can help the body recover. However, you cannot wear a belly belt all the time. Wearing it all day long will affect blood circulation and is not conducive to postpartum recovery. You should wear it for an hour or two and then untie it for a while to relax your waist and abdomen.

It is best to use it two months after a cesarean section, and it is best to let the body recover naturally before using it, because the belly belt or body shaping underwear has the necessary pressure on the body to tighten fat and loose flesh. The body is weaker after giving birth, and all functions need to be restored naturally for better internal health.

However, mothers who gave birth naturally should wait until the wound is no longer painful before wearing it to avoid aggravating the discomfort. It is recommended to use gauze, which has better breathability. In addition, the following points should be noted:

1. People with allergic skin should pay special attention to the materials used. If the postpartum downward feeling is already very severe, it is best not to use a belly band, as it may cause uterine prolapse in severe cases.

2. Pay attention to the direction and usage of the abdominal belt. For example, women who give birth naturally use a belly belt mainly to lift up the sagging part of the body, so they must pay special attention to the direction and usage of the belly belt. For example, when using a wrap-around abdominal belt, do not tie it directly on, but wrap it from bottom to top, from tight to loose, which can indirectly reduce the possibility of pelvic organ sagging.

3. It is not necessary to tie it too tight. The tightness should be just enough to fit a palm.

4. Do not use it for too long every day. It is recommended to use it during the day, and take it off when eating, bathing, or sleeping.

5. Pay attention to cleaning, but don't throw it into the washing machine for convenience, as it may cause deformation.

The above is all about how long after childbirth you should use a belly belt. According to our understanding, giving birth brings many problems to women. Ugly fat appears on the waist and abdomen, and it is possible that you will never be able to return to your previous figure. So at this time, a belly belt is used. You should choose a belly belt that suits you. Using a belly belt at the right time can help you regain your figure.
