Belly Bandit - C-Section & Postpartum Recovery Undies - C-Section Protection and Odor Reduction

Amazing product!! With my first C-section, I had no idea what to expect. I found getting out of bed was difficult..my stomach muscles were completely cut in half and I felt like my C-section was going to split every time I sat up. I felt completely unprotected in my clothing and hated the feeling of my incision rubbing against my clothes. I knew I had to find some sort of supportive garment this time, as I now needed to get out of bed for not only my newborn, but my older child as well. This product made the second time around a completely different experience. I felt extremely supported & secure. It was like having a giant Band-Aid wrapped around my belly. I don't know what I would've done without this product!!

I tried so many different breads of shapers after lipo . This one was the most comfortable and it fit. I wear an 8-10 and the large is perfect. Other brads had me trying on 3x. I’ve never owned anything that size.

I just had surgery, scar goes from belly button past where a c-section is by about 2 inches. Was looking for something that could give support in one go for that entire area. Wish it had more support around c-section zone. At the very top on the sides it does a very very small roll by the second use. But it’s still comfortable. It truly gives a lot of support, my body reminds me when I’m not wearing it. I’d highly recommend it, no it didn’t fit perfectly but wasn’t expecting it to, I’m only 5ft. I would suggest the first time putting on make sure to line up the middle it makes a difference with the clasps

I’m 5’3, 130lbs pre-pregnancy. This was my 2nd csection and I did not use compression after the first one which I regret now. I purchased a pair of these (in a small) and a pair of the Upspring Cpanty (small as well). I definitely prefer these over the cpanty as they offer more compression. I was able to wear the cpanty 3 days after surgery but once some of my swelling went away those no longer offered any compression. I was able to fit into these 1 week after surgery and I’m still wearing them 1 month later; I bought a 2nd pair to rotate through the laundry. The reason I rate them 3 stars is the torso is too short even for my size, my rib area muffin tops over the top so wearing anything form fitting with these is not an option. They do however offer great compression through the midsection and I was able to wear some of my pre-pregnancy jeans 2 weeks after my csection. These do not offer compression over my incision area which is great for the first month or so but it doesn’t eliminate the csection pooch so I’m currently shopping for something else once I’m completely healed.

If you’re navigating the postpartum period like I am, you might be on the hunt for some comfy support. I picked up a couple of Belly Bandit Postpartum Recovery Undies in small and extra small for that snug fit, hoping for maximum compression as many reviewers suggested. These undies are superbly made and really cinch nicely with their hook-and-eye closures. As a mom who went through a natural delivery, I’m happy to report no irritation from the seams. They fit me well—I’m 5'1" and was 135 lbs before pregnancy—and they truly stay put. However, I did find myself wishing for a bit more compression around the bum area, akin to what you’d expect from shapewear, to help smooth things out for a more flattering silhouette. While I’m getting back to my pre-baby shape mainly through breastfeeding, I’m also looking for that extra support to help realign my posture and feel securely tucked in. I’ve docked a star only because I need a bit more firmness in certain spots, but some of you might actually prefer the gentler, more forgiving fit around the rear. Overall, it’s a great buy—competitively priced within the shapewear market and effective at what it promises. Whether you’re just lounging at home or out for a stroll with your little one, these recovery undies can make you feel supported and a bit more put-together. Perfect for any new mom looking to add a touch of support with comfort to her postpartum wardrobe!

Bought these for my first c section 4 years ago and I was pleasantly surprised with how good they were and was recommending them to all my friends. This time round I got two more as I’m having another baby and one of them broke in the first day. The plastic bit pokes out digging into my skin making it impossible to wear. I didn’t notice this when they arrived because you can’t try them on while pregnant and you don’t know exactly when baby comes - mine was late so I missed the return period. Very disappointed and will not recommend to anyone. The cheap Chinese versions will probably be as good for a fraction of the price

The color is really nice and doesn't show under anything. It's 90 degrees and my daughter in law said she was very comfy at her desk job. We were extremely upset she got called in to work on the 1st of the July but she said this helps her so much and I wish I had gotten it sooner. The baby was a whole month premature, we were really stressed out and it's little things like this that makes it easier for her. She said her co-workers compliments made her feel very confident. We also got the matching tank top but she said she was comfy in the heat. And oh yes, very important, they hold their shape after washing. We were happy with the product description, the pretty colors and the really fast delivery. Now I know better for next time (!)

I just had my third C section and I’m so thankful I splurged on these. They provide the perfect amount of compression to give support and shaping. Somehow they manage to hold in my lower belly without squishing all the fat out the top. Honestly, I’d wear these as shapewear even if I hadn’t just had a C section. I’ve never found anything better! When I looked at these 3 days postpartum I thought I’d never be able to get them on (I purchased my usual pre-pregnancy size L). One week postpartum, though, I was able to get them on easily and have been wearing them every day since. I bought 3 pairs and it has been well worth the expense! These are FSA eligible and I used those guns to purchase them.

They are so comfy , I don’t regret buying them.

Very good to use after giving birth ( natural or c-section) I used it after a c section and it was so helpful to reduce the belly This was my second one and totally deserves the money

This is excellent product, really lovely quality and fit. The tiny support bones stop it rolling down and it fits as snug as a glove. Sizing is perfect against size chart.

Great! Fits perfectly! Highly recommended.

Very good
