xpost from gen pregnancy

I went to the doctor on Wednesday and told her that my back is starting to ache. She told me to pick up a pregnancy support belt.

I purchased this one http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2320117. It was comfortable but kept sliding down when I walked. I think it is not working.

And yes, it's a L to XL. My bump is getting big! I just looked at myself in the mirror and noticed a varicose vein on my tummy. I think it is from the belt. I never saw it before.

What do use and what is your review?

Thanks!

I got a Belly Bra when I was pregnant with my twins and it worked the best for the support. Just do a search for Belly Bra it does have it own site.
With the Belly Bra I was able to take 2 plane trips and a cruise and had no problems.

I am expecting twins and found that I needed additional support compared to what is offered for a singleton pregnancy. This particular support belt is unique to a multiple pregnancy. It used to be called the Adjustable Prenatal Cradle but is now called the Best Cradle. It looks a little crazy and looks more like a contraption than a belt. But it does take the pressure completely off of your back and redirects it to your shoulders. They will cost average between about $45-50. One of my freinds told me that they are also available at Motherhood if you prefer to try one on prior to purchase.

Here is where I purchased mine- http://www.thegentlenest.com/products_multiples.html.

Good Luck

I purchased several from BRUS and online and returned them all...then I got the Belly Bra as mentioned above and it was the best! I wish Iwould have bought it first. Takes all the weight off your back and lightens the load up front.
