Simply measure the part of your tummy that is the biggest all the way around your abdomen, which is usually at the belly button, and use that number in the Belly Bandit calculator. To ensure the most accurate sizing, we do not advise sizing earlier than the 8th month. Please note the sizing calculator is not an exact science and all measurements must be given correctly to receive the closest sizing recommendation.

Customer Reviews
The only reason why I haven't given it a 5 star is because the design doesn't allow for different body shapes. I'm petite and short-waisted. The wrap extends below my hip-bones, so the size I ordered (for my waist measurement) wouldn't fit over my hips without some serious contortions and discomfort. I suffered through it for 1 day. Since then, I have managed to wear it more easily (though I still have to fidget with it and overlap the ends at an angle to allow for my hips -- which doesn't give me support at the lower abdomen). A petite and/or short-waisted version would be nice.

One thing that I didn't realize when looking at the photo of the belly bandit is how wide (high) it is. It goes all the way up to my bust line, so when I sit down, it pushes up even higher which is not very comfortable. I wound up cutting about an inch off of the width. I also had ordered an XS according to the sizing chart (for a 32" waist) but I really needed to go one size up because the belly bandit has absolutely no stretch to it at all.
My stomach did flatten out after only wearing it for a few days, so it does work!

I wish I would have discovered the belly bandit two pregnancies ago! I started wearing a size medium the morning after I delivered, and went down to a size small two weeks later. I had my stomache go back to "normal" so quickly, where before I still looked pregnant for weeks and weeks. I'm still wearing it to follow the recommended 6 weeks, but feel like I have already gotten my desired results.

I have noticed that I'm shrinking back pretty quick using this product. It helps remind me to flex my ab muscles instead of letting it all hangout :)
The flaw is that after a couple of days of wearing it, it wrinkles up in the back instead of lying flat. So its noticeable under clothing. After washing it it's back to new again, so not a big deal.

So far I've only been wearing it a little less than a week (just had my baby almost a week ago), so I can't yet say if it really works or not, but it has helped me feel supported and I think it may even be helping with the involution contractions. I can't give it a full 5 stars yet because I'm still waiting for results (another 5 weeks to go!!)

It is difficult to close properly without the closure bunching up. I also have a difficult time keeping it in place. It slides up too far. This would be best to use with something else to control muffin top. Otherwise it is a good product. It helps control my tummy so I can fit back into my pre-pregnancy work clothes.

I have to admit I was very skeptical. But I had to give it a try. I love it so much! It is very comfortable and easy to put on. You can't really tell when I wear it underneath my clothes. I started out with a Medium size then had to buy a Small 3 weeks later. I would highly recomend this product to others.

It would have worked perfectly had the size not been wrong for me. I went by the measurements on the website and should have gotten a size larger. But when I did manage to squeeze into it for an hour or so it really did work. I would recommend this to anyone, just make sure you get the right size!
