How long after giving birth can I stop using a belly band?

Giving birth is something that women can be proud of throughout their lives and is also their greatest happiness. However, women need to be cautious about the various problems brought about by childbirth, such as weak constitution and severe obesity. In order to restore their pre-pregnancy body shape as quickly as possible after giving birth, many women choose to use belly belts to reduce their dimensions as a weight loss measure. However, the belly band is not a scientific and effective method after all, and cannot be used for a long time. So, how long after giving birth can you stop using a belly belt?

During pregnancy, the uterus becomes larger and the abdominal wall becomes loose, and if you exert too much force during childbirth, your belly will become larger and your abdominal muscles will become looser after delivery.

Therefore, it is beneficial to use a belly belt within one week after a normal delivery, and it is best to start using it on the third day after the normal delivery. But the belly belt should not be worn all day long. It should be untied when lying in bed or sitting to rest, and tied again when getting out of bed and moving around. Because long-term use of an abdominal belt will affect blood circulation, restrict the movement of the waist muscles, abdomen and back, and prolong recovery time.

7 days after a normal birth, if the new mother needs to engage in more strenuous activities or return to work early, she can also use a belly belt for a short time. However, after wearing it for an hour or two, you should take it off to let your waist and abdomen relax for a while.

The correct way to use the belly belt is to wear it half an hour after meals and after urination, and take it off before going to bed. At the same time, the use of belly bands should vary from person to person. After a normal delivery, you should strengthen your exercise, do leg lifts, sit-ups and some postpartum exercises regularly, and avoid relying on a belly belt for a long time. When buying a belly band, be sure to choose one that is made of soft material and is breathable.

Knowing how long it takes after giving birth to stop using a belly belt, I believe all women will have a clear understanding of their own health and safety. In order to recover health as soon as possible after childbirth and get back to a perfect figure, women must pay attention to their work and rest schedule, combine work and rest, and correctly use external tools such as belly belts to recover scientifically and effectively after childbirth.
