For women recovering from a C-section, a belly wrap can be beneficial. Belly wrapping can provide the following benefits:
• Compresses and support your belly, waist and hips
• Helps strengthen core muscles weakened during pregnancy
• Promote mobility, helping you get back to your daily activities more quickly
• Helps ease back pain
• Encourage better posture, especially important during breastfeeding
• Provides comfort after C-section
Belly wraps can be worn for extended periods during the day and some women even choose to wear theirs all day. The Belly Bandit Luxe Belly Wrap is definitely the most comfortable and adjustable within the Belly Wraps collection. The only real reason to take it off is when you shower. For questions specific to your recovery please check with your OB/GYN to see what they recommend.
As always, we advise you check with your OB/GYN first for recommendations specific to you, but ideally, you wear the belly wrap for a minimum of 6-10 weeks after delivery for about 10-12 hours per day. Many women find the belly wrap to be effective long after the initial period.
The patented design of the Belly Bandit Luxe Belly Wrap combines all the support and compression of our Original Belly Wrap with the custom shaping and smoothing benefits of a shapewear corset. Made of ultra-thin, breathable materials, the Luxe Belly Wrap is invisible under clothing to help give you the support you need and the confidence you deserve.
Ten years of design learning and technical advancements went into the Belly Bandit Luxe Belly Wrap, because we wanted to create a belly wrap to support every lifestyle. With six panels of breathable, SecureStretch® performance fabric and five levels of targeted compression, the Luxe Belly Wrap has all the best features of Belly Bandit’s belly wraps rolled into one amazing design.
Belly Bandit’s Luxe Belly Wrap uses targeted compression technology to help support and stabilize the weakened muscles in your belly, waist, and hips. This may help lessen your postpartum discomfort.
Consult your primary care physician, but we recommend you wear your Belly Bandit Luxe Belly Wrap for a minimum of 6-10 weeks, though many women find it beneficial to continue wearing their Luxe Belly Wrap long after that period.
The Luxe Belly Wrap is made with our most breathable technical fabric, making it the ideal wrap for exercise and active days. SecureStretch® performance fabric ensures your belly wrap is flexible enough to move with you, while our Stayput® technology minimizes rolling to keep your wrap securely in place.
Yes! The Luxe Belly Wrap has six body-contouring support panels to help support your core and back. The patented design helps ease back pain and encourage better posture, which is especially beneficial for breastfeeding moms.
Belly wraps and corsets can help your body through the postpartum recovery process by providing support to weakened muscles in your belly, waist, and hips. The slight compression not only helps support recovering muscles, but also helps promote healthy blood flow.
The Luxe Belly Wrap is our tallest belly wrap, offering 11” of targeted compression panels in the front and 12” in the back. The B.F.F. Belly Wrap is better suited for women with short torsos and petite body types, with 8” of coverage in front and back. It’s covered with viscose from bamboo, making it a great option for women with sensitive skin.
The Luxe Belly Wrap offers the most targeted compression and support of all our wraps, and represents 10 years of innovation since the launch of the Original Belly Wrap. It offers more coverage, measuring at 11” in the front and 12” in the back, and it uses SecureStretch® performance fabric and Stayput® technology to minimize rolling and increase mobility. The Luxe Belly Wrap is ideal for women who want a discreet fit, maximum coverage, gentle compression, and core support—all in one belly wrap. The Original Belly Wrap is best suited for price-conscious moms with average-length torsos who prefer a simple, no-frills design.
It may. The Luxe Belly Wrap is specifically designed to be worn during postpartum recovery. We recommend wearing your belly wrap as soon as you’re comfortable post-delivery and continuing to wear it for a period of 6-10 weeks, though many women find it beneficial to keep wearing their Belly Wrap long after this length of time. Be sure to consult with your doctor before wearing a belly wrap.
