The Ultimate One-Size-Fits-All Belly Bands

Choosing the Right Size

Getting the right size for your one-size-fits-all belly bands is like picking the perfect pair of shoes—it’s gotta be just right. We’ll chat about why size matters and dish out some savvy tips for picking a size that’s just for you.

Why Size Matters

Getting the right size belly band is not just about style; it’s about feeling good too. If it’s too big, you lose the support and might as well have a sandwich-board sign announcing it under your clothes. Too tight? Ouch! Your mobility will be as restricted as trying to dance in high heels two sizes too small.

Here’s a nod to Belly Bandit who make their bands with five inches of adjustability for those days when you’re just not feeling it in your post-baby bod. It’s like wearing a tailored piece that supports you while being casually discreet.

Here’s why nailing the size is golden:

• Comfy Hours: Wear it all day without wanting to yank it off.
• Support Galore: Helps your post-baby body bounce back.
• Stealth Mode: Hides seamlessly beneath clothes without shouting out to the world.

Tips for Picking the Perfect Fit

Avoid the fitting room fiascos by keeping these handy hints in mind:

1. Pre-baby Size: If shopping early on, go up 1 to 2 sizes from your old fave t-shirt size.
2. Belly size Pre-Baby Burst: Buying on the brink? Grab one that matches the belly size just before the big day.
3. After the Stork Visits: Post-baby buying? Match the size to your just-delivered tummy.

Here’s a cheat sheet for size selection:

When slipping into a Belly Bandit® for the first time, if those ends just make the meet or tease by being an inch apart, Belly Bandit says you’re on the money. If they snuggle together too easily, time to switch sizes.

First-Time Tips:

• Ends Just Meeting: Perfect; the ends should play peek-a-boo.
• Inch Apart: Seek a helping hand but resist the urge to upsize.
• Too Tight Tango: Begin slowly with short wear-times and let your body grow fond of it.

Belly Bandit® Wrap Options

Picking out the perfect belly wrap from Belly Bandit® can sometimes feel like deciding which ice cream flavour to try. You’ve got four options: The Original, Couture, Viscose from Bamboo, and BFF (Body Formulated Fit). Each one’s got its own flavour (read: features), so it’s all about what tickles your fancy—or in this case, your tummy!

The Original vs. Couture

The Original Belly Wrap is your go-to for basic postpartum support. It’s the no-nonsense choice for mums wanting to bounce back to their pre-baby bod. Velcro closures mean it’s as easy to adjust as it is to indulge in extra biscuits!

Couture is The Original’s fancier cousin. Along with all the good stuff from The Original, you get an extra fabric layer for comfort and a touch of style—for those days you feel like a stylish mumma ninja. Plus, it targets compression, great for giving extra lovin’ to your healing body.

Viscose from Bamboo vs. BFF

The Viscose from Bamboo Belly Wrap is all about keeping things Earth-friendly and comfy. Made of bamboo, it’s soft, airy, and perfect if your skin is feeling a bit sensitive. Eco-warriors, unite!

Contrast that with the BFF wrap—a real snug hug! With its six support panels and extra compression zones, it fits like a glove, especially if you’re on the petite side or have a shorter torso.

Each wrap brings its own perks, making it easy to find your perfect match. Need to size it right? Check out our custom-fit belly bands. If you fit in the plus-size or petite range, we have special picks for you too—dive into our plus-size belly bands and petite belly bands.

Get the Right Fit

Nailing the fit on your belly band makes all the difference in comfort and how well it works. Here’s how to secure the best fit for your belly wrap.

Fit Tips

Nailing down the size of your Belly Bandit® is where you start for comfort and getting the job done. Follow these simple tips from the pros at Belly Bandit:

• Early Pregnancy: Snag a band 1 to 2 sizes up from what you wore pre-baby bump.
• Right Before D-Day: Go with the band that matches your current tummy size.
• After Baby’s Arrival: Pick the size that suits your post-birth belly.

Belly Bandit® wraps come with five inches of wiggle room, so they stay snug even when your body doesn’t.

When you first try on the belly wrap, the ends should barely meet. If the Velcro patches up without a fight, it’s likely too big. Can’t quite close it by an inch or so? Chill out, don’t swap it just yet:

1. Lay the band flat.
2. Get comfy lying down on top.
3. Ask a friend or partner to lend a hand if needed.

Feeling overly snug? Start wearing it for a few hours each day to ease your way into it.

Making Adjustments

Tweaking your belly wrap right means a smooth blend of comfort and support. Here’s how:

1. First Try:

• Roll the band out flat.
• Lie back on top.
• Secure the Velcro barely touching.

1. Daily Routine:

• Begin with a few hours to let your body get used to it.
• Gradually up the hours as you settle in.
• Wear it comfortably all day once you’ve adjusted.

Adjust how tight it is by how you feel. If it pinches or feels too tight, give it a tiny loosen. For more cozy options, check out bands with extra Velcro length like belly bands with extended velcro straps.
