Provides Light Everyday Support

Bought this to help with pelvic/hip joint pain that I am suffering with in my second pregnancy at 25 weeks along. Has made a tremendous difference. I think primarily because it has 1)improved my posture and 2)helps keep my hip/pelvic bone tight and in allignment. Have only had this 5 days, but have been noticeably more comfortable. As for sizing, I bought the medium because during my first pregnancy I fell within the lower end of the weight range and now at only 25 weeks (165lbs), I wanted to be sure this would fit to the end of my pregnancy. I have the belt at the smallest of the 3 settings and find that the extra overlap provides extra support under my belly. It is snug, but not too tight and I can pull the end approx 2 inches past the smallest setting to give you an idea. I wear it over a couple layers (full panel pants w/ cami) and I have had no problems with it riding up or shifting. Have found it is not as comfortable with maternity pants that have a normal/non-maternity back and just the underbelly elastic in front. Even with a camisole, the mini cradle shifts around a bit with those types of pants. Well worth every penny!
