Bao Bei

I really like this belly band. I would say it has LIGHT support but also helps keep my maternity pants from falling down too much haha! I do find that as a bigger person (XL) the band feels like it could be a bit longer for comfort and it tends to fold over or slide down. I am happy with it but thought it would be a bit more supportive than it is.

This band is comfortable and is great to wear over my non maternity leggings to allow me to cover my belly comfortably. The only con is that it doesnt have much support. It is just tight compression fabric, nothing that really supports the back or bump, so i have to wear an additional pregnancy band that lifts the bump which i was hoping the ProBump would replace. Also, as others have mentioned in the reviews the band slides up when u walk and Bao Bei needs to add a non slip band to the bottom.

I use it for workouts and walks and it’s been so supportive on my growing belly! I’m hopeful that as I get bigger it’ll do even more wonders for this third pregnancy. I’ve also used it over pants that don’t zip and button, perfect! Doesn’t slip & supports for any occasion.

My sciatic got worse with each pregnancy and this time around I'm a full time pre-k teacher. So the support from this band is a miracle in itself. I feel less pain in my sciatic and the support of my bump is helping my posture and lessoning the amount of time I need to run to the bathroom. I've always greatly appreciated the Bao Bei brand. You can count on every product having mom to be as the utmost importance, prioritizing the pregnant body's needs through all stages of the journey.

Overall the ProBump has been a good supportive band, but my one complaint is that while it works great when I wear shorts (and tuck it inside the shorts) it sucks when I wear running tights (due to both being similar materials). If I put the waist of the tights over the band, my pants slide down and if I put the band over the waist, the band slides up and over my bump. The ProBand could benefit from no slip silicon strips on the inside (which I’m trying to figure out how to do myself). Other than that it’s been good.

This is a pretty good band all in all. It does help with pelvic pain and weigh distribution. It only rolls a little bit and it's comfortable to wear for hours on end.

I really wish they would extend their sizes. Though it stretches it doesn't sit as comfortable the further you stretch and it will roll more often. Im wearing the XL and I'm only 20 weeks so I know it probably won't last the rest of my pregnancy. Plus size pregnant women beyond size 20 deserve pain relief too.

During my first pregnancy I bought a cheap belly support band as I had abdominal separation and it did not seem to provide much relief. This pregnancy I decided to try this support band and I have loved it so far as it provides so much support and I am only half way through this pregnancy. I highly recommend this support band.

I've been struggling with a hernia and diaphragm tightness in my third pregnancy and this support band has been a life saver!

This is was part of my first Bao Bei purchase and worth every penny. I started using it during my first trimester and still using it at 35 weeks pregnant. I’ve used under my work clothes to go to the office, to workout, to clean the house, to walk, you name it! I’m 5’7 1/2 and my pre-pregnancy weight was 150, so I bought a Medium. It’s a very comfortable and firm band. A must purchase during your pregnancy!

Website said they ship within 72 hours and it took them a week to even acknowledge my order instead, plus I sent them multiple emails asking when it would be shipped and they never responded. It took my husband sending a aggravated email to get any sort of communication. Products are severely over priced, not impressed with the belly band I received and the underwear are uncomfortable. Won’t be purchasing anything else from this company.

I am 27 weeks now and have started to feel some aches and pains, putting on this band instantly makes me feel a little more supported! Agreed with a previous reviewer, it's like a sports bra for the belly!

Returning for a larger size and hoping that will work. Otherwise, seems like great quality and materials

ProBump™ Pregnancy Belly Support Band - CRÈME

Do not sit on this product like I did! This is my first pregnancy, and I will be 36 when my baby is born. I started struggling around Week 31. My belly, back, and hips just hurt, and I was doing all the things--keeping up with my water, taking warm baths with pregnancy flakes, using some magnesium lotion, etc. While these things do help, the root problem was that the band I was using just wasn't supporting my bump. I got my ProBump in the mail about 30 minutes ago. The relief I felt was instantaneous! After wearing it for 10 minutes, I called my husband while he was at work to tell him how much better I feel wearing the ProBump band. I didn't know I didn't have to be miserable! If you are looking for something to buy a pregnant friend, please buy them this band. The size chart is spot on, too, if you're wondering about the size.

I'm currently 36w pregnant and this band is perfect in almost every way. My primary complaint before wearing this was the constant pressure on my pelvis. I'm happy to report, with this, such pain was immediately alleviated. My primary complaint after wearing this is beyond baobei's control -- baby's movements! Whenever she moves while I'm wearing this, my gosh do I really feel it, and sometimes it's painful! (insert crying emoji). So if you've got a little dancer, be warned, wearing this will emphasize every one of baby's little movements.

I bought this third trimester and wish I had had this my whole pregnancy! Greatly reduced back and hip pain, helped me feel more supported while standing and chasing a toddler and it's perfect for support while working out!!

Right now I am at 19 weeks pregnant, my pre-pregnancy size was 2-6 depending on the brand. This band is made of great fabric, feels great, and comfortable, I've worn it working at home, walking, spinning, and doing some low-impact workouts, it didn't budge. The only thing is it a smidge big, not like its going to fall off or anything, and I imagine in a few weeks it will fit better, as I am steadily growing these days :) With my first pregnancy, I got DR pretty bad and this band will hopefully help prevent that this time, paired with better workouts. If anything it makes me feel supported and reminds me to breathe correctly and sit up straight - which is honestly really helpful. I would have def given it 5 stars if it was a little smaller.

Just entered my 3rd trimester and this has been a life saver. It has greatly decreased pelvic and lower back discomfort. They also had phenomenal customer service and resent my package for free when I accidentally had my order sent to the wrong address.

I’m so grateful for this item. I used to think pieces like this were luxury items, but really, this is a necessity to help protect your core during pregnancy. (Should have used with my first pregnancy but now it’s a necessity for my severe DR.) I tried getting away with a cheap store brand but this bao bei band is completely different and completely worth the money ..so much more supportive and surprisingly breathable.Thank you for making this product.

I wish I purchased this sooner!! I had purchased the bloomers early in my pregnancy and loved them. I decide some where around 33 weeks to order the pro bump. It arrived and I instantly loved the support I felt. My LO was born at 35 weeks so I didn’t get to use it as bump support for long. This is now an essential in my 4th trimester wardrobe. It helps with back pain, cramping, and core support as I move around. I have loved every product I have ordered!!! Thank you Bao Bei!
