Worth it!!! especially if you have to do any physical work
I had a lot of amniotic fluid and my belly was huge! I work outside on weekends and have to lift boxes, tables etc up to 50 pounds -- my back and legs were killing me. Quitting work was not an option because I have to pay my own bills!!<br /><br />So in desperation I ordered this and it really really helped with the belly burden. I'm a larg-ish lady (about size 18) and it fit comfortably and offered great support. Definitely relieved both back and leg pain and strain in general.<br /><br />Couldn't give it 5 stars for two reasons. The top band is too narrow so after a couple weeks of wear it began to bunch and ravel up the way elastic does on a tight skirt.<br /><br />Then, because the Velcro was the same width as the top band, as the band rolled up the Velcro stuck out past it and REALLY itched because it was in direct contact with my skin. I combated this by buying a sheet of felt at a craft store and stuffing it under the Velcro. Really helped, but still a bit itchy.<br /><br />Still, it was worth it 100 percent. If the manufacturer would widen the upper band this would be a 5 star item.<br /><br />BTW I tried one other support belt (don't remember which brand) and this was far better.
Rating: 4 stars
