Bandages for pregnant women are recommended after the 24th week of pregnancy when the weight of the fetus and amniotic fluid becomes significant. At the same time, if a woman's abdominal and back muscles are not trained, the skin of the abdomen and spine will take all the stress on themselves. Due to a significant change in the body's center of gravity during pregnancy, the abdominal striae and pain in the back may occur. That is why pregnant women over 25 years (or if it is the second pregnancy) are recommended to wear a bandage. Apply such maternity supports during dynamic load: on a walk or during sports. Take off the bandage during rest.
There are several types of bandages for pregnant women:
- Prenatal & Postnatal Bandage. It can be worn before pregnancy as a supportive one (if fastened in the front) and after pregnancy as a tightening one (if fastened on the back, applied during activity (when taking care of the baby, walking, or cleaning) no longer than two consecutive weeks). Such a bandage makes the abdominal muscles begin to work and recover.
- Bandage for Pregnant Women. This brace is designed for women who feel the increased load on the spine due to a large fetus, polyhydramnios, multiple fetuses, or when overweight. The model has a reinforced lumbar part and is recommended for women experiencing pain in the lumbar even before pregnancy.
