My OB advised me to wear a maternity belt because of my rather big tummy. This is my fourth pregnancy and my tummy is a bit roomy now. Sati can actually do ballroom dancing inside my tummy.LOL. Bought this belt at Mercury Drugstore, it was a bit expensive (for me), about $15 or less. Anyway, after two weeks of using it, I can say I am not perfectly happy with it. First thing, it was really bulky! It makes you think of the days when maternity or any pregnancy items are huge, big and ugly. I can wear it at home but outside? nah, specially if I ma wearing sexy maternity clothes.
Let’s move on to the real reason why I bought this maternity belt, I give it an A. It really supports my tummy and supporst even my back. It really prevents dropping of my abdomen (it is the right term for lawlaw?). If you are having some trouble keeping your posture straight and have a heavy tummy, I highly recommend this one.

August 30, 2009 at 2:35 amHi Ms Pehpot… didn't know na inaadvise din pala dyan ang belt, nung preggy din kasi ako, binilhan ako ng mga elders ko dito ng maternity belt, akala ko japanese lang gumagamit nun lol kasi particular sila halos sa pagwarm ng tyan, wala pa kasi ako alam tungkol sa pregnancy things nun..didn't know what for, uncomfortable talaga pag una, pero nung bumigat na talaga si baby, dun ko lang sya na-appreciate.

Genejosh says
