I was set on getting a Belly Bandit, even after reading some negative reviews about it's comfort. I wore the binder the hospital gave me home. It was a good binder. I then went to wear the Belly Bandit (organic cotton), and it was miserably uncomfortable, maybe I need to be larger to wear it, or have a Kardashian backside. I'm 5'5 normally 115, gained 145 during pregnancy. It's to long and pokes uncomfortably in the back and sides. Plus you will need to buy two sizes as one will not work. I put mine on Craigslist to sell as I couldn't return it. I would skip spending the $70 to $140 for two and just get a regular binder that is comfortable, still does the same thing. I do highly suggest the Shrinx Hips though, for after baby products, it actually works and is wearable!
