Postpartum Belt and its Uses | What are the types of belts available? | When should we wear it?

Many women want to get close to the pre-pregnancy body, they want to come back to their previous bodies and most of you think that wearing a POSTPARTUM BELT is the best option we have.
If any doctor advises wearing a belt or not
What kind of belt should be used?
What are the types of belts available?
When should we wear it?
What are the advantages of belts and what are the disadvantages?
SO WHAT ABDOMINAL BELT DOES AND WHY DO WE NEED TO USE IT.
Because your body has stretched to accommodate your little angel abdominal muscles are torn apart and you must have heard about the term DIASTASIS from your doctor.
when your baby is delivered somewhere around 6 WEEKS TO 12 WEEKS your body wants to come back to the normal so when we use the belt whether it will benefit or not is a huge dilemma.
Second important thing that I want to tell you that your PELVIC ORGANS AND MUSCLES ARE WEAK AND SOMETIMES IT SHOWS URINARY SYMPTOMS AFTER THE DELIVERY WHETHER IT IS A NORMAL DELIVERY OR A CAESAREAN and also there are a lot of myths that this “BELT CAN SORT OUT EACH AND EVERY PROBLEM LIKE OUR TUMMY WILL BE FLAT AND SKINNY” these things are in your heads and after watching this video I’m sure you will get things cleared because whenever we are using something we should be very clear.
So WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS TO USE THE BELT,
IT HELPS RELIEVE PAIN, IT GIVES YOU SUPPORT, I agree, if you underwent cesarean then the whole SWELLING AFTER THE SURGERY IS RELIEVED, and more important it FASTENS THE HEALING PROCESS BY RESTORING THE BLOOD FLOW but it should be clearly understood that it doesn't give strength to the tummy muscle it just gives support to the tummy muscles and lower back so when you move, handling your baby you feel a little better supported and your healing gets improved but the STUDIES SHOW THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT so it is not causing any harm but it MAY benefit you, and in case if you're not putting it in the right place or putting it too tight then it's not good because the blood flow will stop leading to delay the healing process. Some patients also get breathless if they wear the belt too tight. Your tummy needs to be supported but it can’t go in drastically as it is not elastic that’s why it should be used comfortably. There are brands that offer different types of belts in old times our elders used to advise us to tie a long cloth around the belly for the support which is called ABDOMINAL WRAPS in the west.
We have three types of belly support:
1. ABDOMINAL WRAPS
2. ABDOMINAL BELT with a hook or Velcro that also comes with adjusting capacity to make it tight or loose.
3. WAIST TRIMMERS.
Please do remember that a postpartum belt is only and only going to help you move easily, and give you support to help you destrain the muscles while you feed. They are not tummy tuckers that reduce abdominal fat or slimmer your belly because for that you need to rest adequate, exercise, and core muscle training that could begin after FOUR WEEKS IN CASE OF NORMAL DELIVERY AND AFTER SIX WEEKS IN CASE OF CAESAREAN (after three weeks of light training and then complete training).
So, REST, EXERCISE, AND CORE TRAINING are these three things that play vital roles. You should only wear it to feel supported and comfortable and you should understand the purpose and intention of using the belt and move ahead. I’m sure it will help you and make you more comfortable. BUT REMEMBER YOU DON’T WEAR IT FOR TOO LONG IN SUMMERS OR IN HIGH TEMPERATURES AS IT CAN LEAD TO ITCHINESS REDNESS AND RASHES SO USE IT MINDFULLY.

Ma'am mai 6 week pregnant hu aur sugar lavel border me rahti hai meri dr. Me ALNAGEAST 200 suggest kiya hai kya ye save hai kyoki isko khane ke kuch time baad muhe dizziness hone lgti hai...plz reply

[@VirtueBaby]

This is a hormonal supportive treatment which is absolutely safe but may give some mild dizziness
You can insert it instead of orally taking it. It will be better
