Wearing a belly band was recommended by my doula and definitely made a massive difference this time around. Honestly, it was a real game changer! The back support alone made carrying my baby during the first few weeks so much easier on my body. Beyond the comfort, it directly helped with my baby pouch and supported my diastasis recti recovery, getting me back into my pre-pregnancy clothes within a few months. Along with drinking lots of water, healthy eating, and light exercise, it's one of the best postpartum essentials I used.

Good To know
What makes it different from shapewear?
It’s about feeling supported. Developed with pelvic floor therapists, our belly band combines adjustable support with soft, breathable bamboo fabric.
You choose the fit around your tummy and the support from the back straps. A little more comfort for the body doing so much.
When can I start using my Belly Band?
If you had a vaginal birth, you can start wearing your belly band right after birth — many moms use it within hours. Early use is especially helpful because your body still has higher relaxin hormone levels, making the band more effective for alignment and recovery.
If you had a C-section, wait around 2 weeks for your incision to heal. Start with short sessions, then increase as you feel comfortable. Most C-section moms feel immediate relief, especially around the incision and lower back.
Can I use a Belly Band after a C-Section?
Yes absolutely! Belly binding is a well-known part of C-section recovery and can bring immediate relief to incision discomfort that often lasts for weeks (sometimes months).
We recommend waiting around 2 weeks before using your belly band, so your incision has time to close and heal properly. Start with short wear sessions and increase gradually as you feel comfortable.
Pair it with our Postpartum Briefs for all-day, all-night comfort—perfect for every mom's unique journey.
How do I use my MammaBump Postpartum Belly Band?
We made it super simple! Just wrap the band around your tummy so it covers your pelvic area and upper abdomen, then use the stretchable back strap to add targeted support and gentle compression where you need it most.
For best results, wear it 4–6 weeks postpartum for at least 4 hours a day.
It’s invisible under clothes, made from ultra-breathable bamboo, and you can wear it while walking or doing light exercise to support posture and encourage core engagement.
Easy, supportive, and made to move with you!
Can I use a Belly Band six months postpartum or later?
Yes, absolutely. Your body continues to recover well beyond the first few months. It can take up to a year for your organs to realign, and abdominal separation (diastasis recti) can last for many months if not supported with proper core engagement. Many moms also continue to experience loose skin, back pain, and core weakness long after birth.
A belly band can still help you by:
- Supporting core activation and posture
- Aiding abdominal realignment
- Reducing lower-back discomfort
- Providing light shaping for loose skin
- Offering stability during daily movement
Whether you’re 6 months or 12 months postpartum, wearing a belly band can still make a meaningful difference. Every recovery timeline is unique; it’s never too late to support your body!

Really good support and makes a huge difference when I’m carrying my newborn around. Especially when I am wearing him in a front carrier it’s game changing. Highly recommend.
Amazing! Good sizing. True to size. Very comfortable and can still move freely while wearing it. Cant wait to see results!
Honestly I didn’t realise how weak my core had become after giving birth until I tried picking up my baby. I had a bit of diastasis recti and even simple things like standing up or carrying him for too long would make my lower back ache 😢 A few days after I started wearing this belly band I could literally feel the difference. It gave me that extra bit of support I was missing, literally like a gentle hug around my midsection, you can't imagine how good it felt! It helped me stand straighter, move more freely, and actually enjoy those first moments with my baby without wincing in pain. And honestly, mentally it did so much too. Seeing my belly start to flatten again and feeling my core tighten little by little made me feel like myself again. It’s not about “bouncing back,” it’s about healing and the MammaBump band really helped me do that ❤️
A great product I bought after giving birth to help with pelvic floor issues I had during pregnancy and postpartum! Highly recommend it for anyone looking for support. I don’t wear it all day, but I do use it for a few hours each day! Thanks so much for a great product!
3 days PP with baby #2 and just started wearing my belly band from the postpartum healing bundle I got. My midwife recommended using a belly band and it’s really helping with my back and tummy pain. Feels so good to have that support and makes the transition of not carrying my baby anymore easier… I had a vaginal birth so I could wear it right away. Hoping it will help with my baby pouch too as I read in some reviews… Midwife also said it’s great for pelvic floor recovery and getting my organs back in place so I highly recommend it to all mamas! 😊
Mom of 2 here, used the belly band for the first time and loving it so far. Helped sooo much after my c-sec. The pain eased up big time, and after just 3 weeks, my baby pouch is almost gone! Way faster than with my first when I didn’t use one. I’m also breastfeeding and have way more milk this time (had to supplement with my first), so maybe that’s helping too. Either way, this band is a MUST for new moms. Highly recommend
I started wearing this at a quite late point postpartum, but it actually helps ! This was after giving birth to our 4th baby, so I felt like everything just took longer getting back. I feel as of my skin is tighter and my posture better. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs a little support after giving birth <3
Easy to wear
I am 4 weeks post partum and very insecure of my body after having my 2nd little girl. This band has given me confidence to wear tight clothing and after just wearing it for a week I can feel the difference. It also helps with my back support and I’ve noticed my back pain has improved massively !
I’m so glad I purchased my postpartum belt from MammaBump!! Loviiing it! ❤️❤️❤️ Just wished I had bought it sooner… I am 4 months pp. First of all I would like to commend MammaBump’s awesome customer service!!👏🏾 I had ordered a smaller size at first; and when I sent them an email about it; they were quick to respond and they sent me a replacement right away!! Secondly, I have been wearing my belt for about a week now; and I’m very pleased with it!!😍 It is super comfortable, I feel like my internal organs are well supported especially when working out or just even standing for long periods… I can’t wait to get rid of my mommy pouch (don’t be fooled by the angle of my picture slimming me down already 😅) Anyways I would definitely recommend this product!! Thank you once again MammaBump’s Team 🤗
Best decision after C-section I've made. Gentle but also feels so secure and my tummy has gone down in swelling so fast in the last 2 weeks post surgery.
I'm 7 days post op from my c section. This thing has been saving my life. I wear it 24/7 take it off only to pee and shower. I started it 3 days post op and wore the hospital issued one before that. The fact that it reduced almost all surgical swelling and I look nearly back to pre pregnancy in just 7 days is amazing. I bought it for the support , it has done that and then the shrinking has been a huge added benefit. Get it, asap !
I ordered this 5 months postpartum. Yes, I know a little late you'd think, but I never heard about this before. I had been struggling to get my stomach back and my ab muscles had separated quiet a bit and the exercises where just not doing it. I had two back to back c sections. My boys are 13 months apart. I have been wearing this band for over 1 week, from morning to night. It is amazing! I researched online for a band, and came across a women's blog. On her blog was this Belly Band by MammaBump. I wish all women could know about this band after pregnancy. I am extremely happy how it is helping not only my belly shrink down, but how its helping push my muscles back together and how it is helping my lower back pain that even my chiropractor wasnt able to completely help due to my lack of core muscle strength. I'm going to recommend to help my pregnant mamas!
I wish I knew about this 6 years ago with my other children! I have never had my body bounce back this quick before. Day 7 post-partum (vaginal birth) and my stomach is almost back down to prior to pregnancy. I have worn the band for 4 hours a day each day and I am breastfeeding my baby. I am inlove with this band, it is supportive and makes me feel so much more confident with my recovery.
As a 3rd time mom, I decided to try the Mamma Bump wrap to help with postpartum healing, specifically for previous DR and an umbilical hernia. After 4 days of use, my husband commented on how much quicker my belly contracted after this pregnancy and my physical therapist was surprised to see my DR was only 2 fingers wide at 2 weeks PP. I’ve been wearing the wrap primarily at night to help with posture support during late night feedings, and have noticed a decrease in mid back pain as a result. I should have invested in a belly wrap years ago with my first 2 kids!
Comfortable
It really helps pull everything together and isn’t noticeable under clothing.
I’m a 5 months postpartum mom trying to find the best band for my lower abdomen and I think I found it!
The belly band has helped me recover from giving birth and is so supportive
Amazing product and even better customer service
Comfortable and you can move freely.
I wear the belly band whenever I’m out walking or doing things around the house although I’m still building up the amount of time I have it on. It very supportive and my swelling reduces after wearing it, I find it very comfortable and it makes me feel a bit more confident as I navigate my new postpartum body.
Perfect timing for my back pain. Also great support when carrying baby in his carrier. Highly recommend for postpartum recovery mamas
Odd one this but my little baby is now nearly 12 😂HOWEVER I have awful scoliosis and has been using my old postpartum belly band as a back and hip support. I was looking for a regular replacement and couldn’t find anything I liked that wasn’t a total girdle, then it dawned on my to just get another postpartum one. It’s the hip support which is so necessary and plus it holds your tummy in and is good for posture. This is EXCELLENT honestly I am delighted! It does à brilliant job, it’s like a massive hug from behind and you can make it really tight which is what I needed. I am only a size 4-6 and making things tight is hard, but this really does the job. Brilliant!
Very good. That’s what I need to recover from my abdominal muscle pain after C-section. Cheers
Me encantó la faja muy buena
I purchased MammaBump recovery gear for my wife for her postpartum recovery, and it has been worth every penny. She absolutely loves it and says it provides the exact support and compression she needs for her back and core. Seeing how much more comfortable it has made her daily recovery has been amazing.
It was so comfy, supported my belly really well and helped me stay productive.
I like it
It's a great and useful belt after cs
The belly band is very comfortable and nice
Love this belly band. I am currently 2 weeks postpartum and wear this for a few hours a day. Its comfortable and has been worth every penny.
Secure and would feel nice but it runs small - small does not close for me so can’t use (which would have been my prepregnancy size and what they recommended)
Highly recommend it. Supports my core and back, makes it an absolute bliss carrying the baby in her baby belt and running errands without my stitches and back muscles grunting. Worth investment towards postpartum healing. Thank you!
Great product! Comfortable and easy to use. Highly recommended
Great quality belly band (strong and durable) with good versatility from the additional sinching bands. Comfortable and easy to use. Works particularly well over compression tights without being too much. The quality is very similar to chiropractic / orthopedic back support bands I have used in the past following a back surgery. Would happily recommend.
Great post birth pressure and support in these early weeks with mobility after delivering twins
Easy to order right size , fits well
Easy to put on and adds support as I get back to walking and being up and around the house more. Eases my low back pain from having a weak core immediately postpartum.
I love that it’s easily adjustable to suit my area of abdominal weakness. It’s also helped with strengthening my back and hopefully healing diastasis recti post surgery.
