Hey guys!
Sorry to shove two "sponsored" posts at you in a row but I also wanted to talk about this product I received from Mamaway! When I received this I was very excited because I was under the impression that it was a waist trainer style product. This was not because the company lied to me or anything it was because I WAS NOT PAYING ATTENTION. So even though I did not need this product I still tried it out to do a review for you guys and so here it is:
Let's start with the good parts... This belt has metal boning in the back part to support your back. This would be very helpful for during pregnancy for obvious reasons as well as after birth because (no one tells you this but...) you are going to have a lot of back (and butt) pain after giving birth. The back support part goes way up the back to make sure that you have support everywhere but it is the most supportive of the lower back which is the most important anyways!
It has six different areas that fasten together. First is the main part that fastens together to secure the entire thing and that is the main source of support. the other four fasten to the belt itself which helps you to customize the way that you want the belt to fit. This really helps to ensure that you are getting the best fit and the best support possible.
Now for the not-so-good... These belts run very small in my opinion. As someone who usually wears a small, I expected the medium I ordered to fit perfectly (because I anticipated it to be a little small). However, the medium is still too tight unless it is the absolute loosest it can possibly be then it is a perfect, but still snug, fit. If you are planning on ordering I would definitely advise keeping that in mind. I'd also like to mention the fact that it had a strong chemical (and slightly fishy) smell when it came out of the package. That went away soon after it was opened though. I also wish the part that held the stomach was longer and covered more stomach area!
Overall, I think that it would work really well for a pregnant woman and probably decently well for someone more recently postpartum. For me personally it really didn't do too much I am sad to say. I wish that it had worked out better but maybe next time, Mamaway!
P.S. When I realized my review wasn't going to be 100% cheerful and I wouldn't be singing this belt's praises I contacted the company to see if they just did not want me to write this and they encouraged me to carry on with the 100% honest review. If you ask me that shows that this company has great morals and really cares about how their product is and what they are supplying to their consumer! This impressed me and I am very happy to work with this company!
I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.
