GABRIALLAGABRIALLA Elastic Pregnancy Support Belt - Premium Pregnancy Belt for Back, Pelvic, Hip Pain, SPD, and PGP - Adjustable and Breathable Maternity Support Belt - Pregnancy Gift for Expecting Mum

It looks rather medical but it has been great for late second and third trimester running, taking some of the pressure off round ligaments.

I was given a maternity band by my sister but I had to keep adjusting it every 5 seconds and it wasn’t very supportive so thought I’d try this. It stays in place much better and needs to be pulled down a lot less frequently. It’s pretty supportive, I’m currently 25 weeks and hoping it will help me to run a bit longer into the pregnancy as starting to feel the weight of the belly now!

I bought this after reading the various reviews on here, round about 24 weeks of my pregnancy as it seemed from the reviews that's when others found it useful.When I first tried it on, I was really not convinced, it felt really uncomfortable and hindered my range of movement, so I packed it up and was prepared to return it to Amazon. Luckily for me, I didn't get round to posting it and about a month later, once a proper bump had really started to emerge and I was finding it more uncomfortable running, I decided to give it another bash and it worked a treat, providing support to keep running, walking and generally active during the rest of my pregnancy. Without a doubt, it has allowed me to keep active during my pregnancy by providing my belly with a bit of decent support when I need it.

I thought i would buy this item to try out as i wasn't sure whether it would be something i would want to wear. I didn't feel comfortable wearing this belt so i returned it. But I had to pay £4 to return so please think twice before buying. Based on my experience, I wouldn't recommend buying this product.

This belt is genius! It allowed me to keep running until I was 32 weeks pregnant and then I used it to support my bump while I was out on walks. I can not recommend it enough. The sizes are a little confusing. I ended up getting a medium size which lasted my whole pregnancy. I was a size 10/12 before I became pregnant. I did have to return the small size as I thought there wouldn't be much room to "grow" in it. The seller provided a prompt refund although it is a shame I had to pay for P&P twice. For the price of one months gym membership I think this was a great buy that allowed me to keep fit and active throughout my pregnancy.

I got the size up based on reviews, but it didn't matter - front Velcro is too small and weak, requires constant readjustment to stay on. The "double pull" straps pull it open with minimal stretch. The Velcro at the front roles up and peels open under clothes. It's not strong enough to stay on while walking, nevermind running or sitting. Reattaching it, you need to redo the double pull straps, which like to stick to everything else before they'll attach to where you want them. If it would stay on, it might be supporting, but it won't, and therefore doesn't.

I almost gave up on running at 16 weeks due to the discomfort I was feeling on my bladder and lower part of the stomach, then I came across this bad boy on an internet search!! It is brilliant. I would describe it as putting on a brilliant support bra, but for the stomach. Don't get me wrong, as it does not completely eradicate any aches, BUT makes running (for me anyway) a lot more enjoyable and that need to take a pee every 2 mins has gone!Just want to add that I wear this also when I use the cross trainer and when I do spin class twice a week and it has been a dream!

Go a size up! Don’t get the size based on your measurements especially if you are still in the early months of your pregnancy!
