Maternity Support Band

So Im wearing the support band per ER instructions to avoid ligament pains. It makes my bump HUGE though by supporting it higher. Logan seems to like the support though and I have to admit Im feeling less pain while standing. The real test will be tomorrow in my cooking class. Standing for 5hrs straight.

Anyone else having to wear one of these?

I was told by the store clerk they dont recommend the band until in ur 3rd trimester because early on the baby is small and down low, too much pressure for baby. So I did not buy it.

Yeah its a relief to an extent lol. I need to get used to it I guess. Its better than feeling like Im about to go into preterm labor though.
