    Default Anyone used waist cinchers after pregnancy?

    I'm due around Christmas and I'm excited, but worried about getting everything in place. I go to school full time and I want to make sure I have everything I need by then. I was thinking about getting a waist cincher (I saw a brand called squeem on Amazon). This would be used postpartum and it is supposed to help get your body back quicker. Has anyone used this? I am not overweight and I am walking about 4 miles a day 5 times a week, but I simply don't want a gut. I know, shallow right? I plan on walking even after the baby gets here, especially since I live right by the gym and walking track. I guess I want to know if anyone has used it, or had good/bad results with compression garments.

    there are a couple of older threads about girdles, etc. as far as I know (and I am no expert) they work while you where them, but when you take them off your body goes back to close to normal.

    here's a link:

    I will be watching to see what replies you get.One of my friends has back -aches from her pregnancies,and I want to find her a waist-cincher/girdle that will give her some back support.

    Well thanks for replying. I was talking to a family friend that's a doctor, and she said that she wore a girdle for 6 months after she had her baby. She said it didn't make her skinny (which I know, no shortcuts to diet and exercise 'cept lipo!), but she said she was able to get control of her ab muscles quicker than from her first pregnancy (where she didn't wear anything). I figure if nothing else it'll give support to my weak abs, and the constriction will force me to be aware of my posture and what I eat.
