postpartum belly wrap

Its been 5months that i had a c-section, and my belly still looks like its about the size of 6month pregnant. Does using a belly wrap at this time around really work to flatten the stomach? I havent used it anytime after my delivery and its my first baby...am really worried if my tummy is gonna stay like this forever...

You might be able to get your doc to order one for you after you have your baby :-)  then insurance will pick up the tab lol

You can find cheap ones in medical supply stores under the name "abdominal binder" same thing, you just don't pay for the name "post-partum" lol.  They're used for post abdominal surgeries in hospitals :-).

I didn't have a section but I did use a belly wrap after baby number 3.  I got one at babies r us and u read online u should wear it continuously for 30 days after delivery.  I did and it worked great.  I am an "older" mommy (38) but I have a nice flat stomach like I had before so I would recommend getting one.  Good luck.
