Wearing the proper maternity clothes and undergarments—particularly a belly band—can probably help.

Better posture You can look and feel good in any trendy maternity clothing when you have good posture—and belly bands can help you with that. The band supports your torso and lower back so that you don’t overextend your muscles and get that awkward ‘sway back’ look. It may also prevent the weakening of the core muscles supporting your spine. 2. Less pain Joint and back pain are more frustrating during pregnancy and may become so debilitating to a point that you’re unable to do your daily tasks. Belly bands support the lower back as well as the baby bump to help reduce overall pain. 3.

It helps keep the uterus stable to minimize discomfort during any physical activity. Just make sure that it fits correctly to avoid impairing circulation, which can negatively affect your blood pressure and contribute to indigestion and heartburn.
