There are two types of pregnancy stomach support band: waist type and shoulder type. There are also different materials and workmanship. Considering the characteristics of pregnant women’s abdominal enlargement, they should choose a brand with strong elasticity, comfortable to wear and no pressure, then the abdominal support belt Which is better to use?
1. Waist type support belts:
The adjustable belly band is used as a support point for abdominal support, which is easy to use. From the perspective of physiological structure, because the waist and abdomen are in the same line and the angle is too small, it cannot effectively hold up the abdomen and easily squeeze the waist and abdomen, so it is not recommended for use.
Waist-type belly support belt uses the waist as the bearing point to support the abdomen. Although this method is simple, it is very unreasonable from the perspective of human physiological structure, because the waist and abdomen are on a parallel line, from the waist to the waist. The angle of the lower abdomen is between 20-40 degrees. The force of this angle cannot play the role of supporting the abdomen. Not only can it not support the abdomen but it will hurt the waist even more and squeeze the bulging abdomen.
2. Shoulder type support belts
With the shoulders as the support point, the body supports the abdomen in a three-dimensional way like the arms and hands of the human body, without restraining the waist or pressing the abdomen, effectively supporting the abdomen and protecting the mother and baby.
The shoulder-mounted belly support belt is based on the shoulders as the bearing fulcrum. It is based on the physiological characteristics of the abdominal weight-bearing pressure during pregnancy. It has a three-dimensional design. The arms and palms of the bionic human are like the hands of the human body. In the past, the unreasonable waist support method of restraining the waist and squeezing the stomach does not restrain the waist or press the abdomen, and truly supports the abdomen, protecting the mother and the baby. This is a kind of protective abdominal support during pregnancy that obstetricians are more optimistic about today.
Select elements
To consider the characteristics of abdominal enlargement, choose maternity girdles supports with adjustable size, strong flexibility, easy disassembly and ventilation, and strong breathability.
It is best to choose a belly support belt according to the doctor's advice, and choose a flexible belly support belt to ensure that the enlarged abdomen can be fully supported, the uterus is prevented from prolapse, the fetal position is protected, and the pressure is reduced.
Precautions
When tying the belly band, the pregnant woman should lie on her back on the bed and fasten it, so that the uterus can be effectively supported when standing. Remember, the strap should not be too tight or too high forward, and the belly strap should completely cover the hips of the body, and the front should be all the way down to the pubic bone. When going to bed at night, take off the support belt, so as not to oppress the uterus.
If you use a belly band to hold up stomach, it is used to correct the fetal position, and you should be more cautious. You should operate under the guidance of a doctor, and do not make your own decisions.
Although the maternity belly belt is a bit restrictive, please bear with it for the health of the baby and yourself! Now some abdominal support belts have a double-layer effect, which can be used during pregnancy and postpartum pelvic repair. High-quality abdominal support belt can solve the problem of pelvic ligament softening caused by increased hormones during pregnancy, and the occurrence of waist, pubic bone, buttocks, sciatica and some gynecological diseases caused by the relaxation and deformation of sacroiliac structures.
