Bandage tape prenatal. Prenatal bandage: facts, opinions, comments. Types of bandages and their characteristics
Depending on the purpose, there are several main types of bandages:
- (support the pregnant tummy);
- (restore the figure after the appearance of the child with the help of a sewn-in panel simulating the area of the buttocks, thighs and abdomen);
- postoperative (put on after caesarean section and have a massage effect).
The revolutionary invention of Anita - incredibly comfortable and functional prenatal bandages.
The built-in support belt in these bandages supports the growing belly according to the patented Anita® support principle, taken by Anita technologists from the experience of Indonesian women who use a scarf to support their growing belly.
Anita prenatal bandages significantly reduce back pain, pressure and tension in the abdomen and pelvis, relieve pulling pain in the pelvic area - this is confirmed by clinical trials. It has also been proven that wearing a prenatal bandage during pregnancy helps a woman quickly restore her figure after childbirth.
In the online store site you can buy prenatal bandages of three types:
- Bandage-tape with a cape on the stomach,
- Bandage-panties with a cape on the stomach,
- Bandage tape.
The first type has a special tape that supports the lower tummy with support on the back. It can be adjusted with Velcro. This product can be worn both on the naked body and over clothing (pantyhose).
The second type of bandage is elastic soft panties with a sewn-in bandage tape, which adapt themselves to the shape of your abdomen and do not require adjustment. Such a product is worn instead of ordinary panties. It requires daily washing, but washes and dries very quickly.
The third type is the simplest design that can be worn directly over clothing, such as jeans or maternity pants.
Anita postpartum bandages help to restore the figure after childbirth. They model the area of the abdomen, thighs and buttocks, so many continue to wear them even after the recovery period. Anita postpartum bandages are also ideal for supporting the abdomen after caesarean section and abdominal surgery.
In the catalog of the anitashop.ru online store, you can buy models of bandages in the most popular colors: white, black and flesh. They are invisible under clothes and do not interfere with the usual movements of mommy.
Dear friends, I greet you!
Today we will talk about prenatal bandages: what they are, why they are needed, when it is recommended to wear them, how to care for them, how to choose them, etc., etc.
Honestly, I wanted to leave this topic for later. But after analyzing your answers to the questions, I planned it for the near future.
And today I came across two videos where respected doctors, talking about bandages for pregnant women, were talking complete nonsense mislead expectant mothers. Not intentionally, out of ignorance. Because so far the use of orthopedic products in medical schools is not taught.
And I, too, 6-7 years ago did not really know anything about it. We were not trained in the pharmacy. They themselves read something, speculated, decided, decided, and that's how they sold it. 🙂 The epiphany came only when I came to work in an orthopedic company.
In a word, after these videos, my legs themselves brought me to the computer, and my hands drummed on the keyboard to help you figure out the bandages for pregnant women.
Data
So, prenatal bandage.
Is he needed? Is it possible to do without it?
Of course you can. In my time, 26 years ago, there were no such things. At least I have not heard of any bandages for. And nothing! Endured, gave birth, like millions of women in those years.
Have you had back pain? What more! Sometimes they shot in the lower back so that it was impossible to take a step.
According to statistics, back pain in the second half of pregnancy is tormented by 80% of women. And that's why.
Firstly, the belly increases. This means that the load on the .
Secondly, with the growth of the abdomen, the center of gravity of the body of a pregnant woman shifts forward. Trying to maintain balance, she leans back a little and bends in the lower back. A "duck" gait appears.
But the back muscles are not used to this position. They begin to "rebel", i.e. strain, adapt to changing conditions. It causes pain.
Third. Last During the first few months of pregnancy, the placenta produces the hormone relaxin, which relaxes the pelvic joints so that the baby can be born safely. They become more mobile, and again work is added to the muscles of the lower back.
This is in healthy women. And if you take those who had problems with the spine before pregnancy? Of course, under the influence of such loads, they again make themselves felt.
Therefore, prenatal bandages have two main tasks:
- Support the abdomen from below to relieve tension in the back muscles.
- Fix and thereby unload the lower back, taking part of the load on yourself.
And there is one more task, additional. This is a stretch mark warning.
Why do I call it extra? Because, if a normal bandage performs two main tasks completely, then, in all honesty, it does not cope well with the prevention of stretch marks.
After all, what are stretch marks?
The elasticity of our skin depends on collagen and elastin proteins. They are produced by fibroblast cells in the dermis. During pregnancy, the skin stretches so quickly that its elastic fibers are torn. At the same time, fibroblasts do not have time to synthesize good-quality skin proteins and begin to “hack”, drive marriage, quickly patching up areas of ruptures with coarse scar tissue.
But why do some women have stretch marks and others don't?
Because the skin of some women is naturally more elastic and able to adequately withstand the test of pregnancy. And others don't.
It is no coincidence that stretch marks, or scientifically, striae, are considered a hereditary problem.
The main trouble is that they cannot be removed by any cosmetic procedures: they are too deep. They can only be made brighter.
And, nevertheless, the prenatal band helps to some extent restrain the growth of the skin of the abdomen, reducing the risk of stretch marks, but only in combination with cosmetics that you are well aware of.
What are prenatal bandages?
Of the variety of bandages, 3 types can be distinguished:
Prenatal bandage-pants. It is made of soft elastic fabric, and under the tummy there is a band made of actually the same material.
As the abdomen grows, the elastic tissue stretches.
pros: cute, similar to ordinary underwear, do not cause any discomfort.
Minuses:
To be completely honest, I think it's stupid. Ordinary lingerie.
Prenatal bandage tape.
It is made in the form of an elastic belt, fixed under the stomach with a Velcro fastener. There are additional elastic straps on the sides.
Pros:
- Effectively supports and unloads back muscles.
- Provides good tummy support.
- With additional elastic straps, you can adjust the degree of fit.
- Doesn't stretch.
- No need to wash it daily.
Minuses:
Not as cute as bandage briefs.
Prenatal bandage-corset. Compared to the previous one, it has a wider back and rigid inserts in the lumbar region.
pros And minuses the same as for the bandage.
Therefore, when selling a brace, find out if there are back pains and how intense they are. If mild aching pain, you can offer a regular tape bandage. For severe pain radiating to the leg, buttock, recommend a brace-corset.
How to choose the size of the prenatal bandage?
To select the size, a centimeter tape must be drawn along the hips and under the tummy.
Care Tips
The bandage is washed, as a rule, by hand in a soapy solution at a water temperature of 40 degrees. Washing powders are not used, as they contain bleaches, which, firstly, are unsafe for the skin, and secondly, can harm the elastic properties of the fabric. The bandage is not twisted so that it does not deform, but is blotted with a towel and usually dried, but not on a battery or in the sun.
How to wear?
The prenatal bandage should be put on in the supine position so that the uterus and other organs take the correct position.
Done with the facts.
Now let's deal with opinions and comments.
As the gestational age increases, the uterus also grows, pressing on the internal organs. Because of this, the load on the lower back increases, and the center of gravity shifts to the stomach. If you do not wear special supportive underwear, then you can not only get stretch marks, rupture of abdominal tissues (diastasis), prolapse of internal organs, but also become the owner of banal daily discomfort.
prenatal bandage in the form of shorts from Crate is designed specifically for women who are expecting the birth of a baby in the near future. Completely covering the stomach, the model evenly distributes the load on the entire back, removing it from the uterus and internal organs, thereby facilitating breathing and walking, especially during long periods of pregnancy.
Indications and contraindications:
The use of bandage shorts is indicated for pregnant women from the twentieth to twenty-second weeks of pregnancy until its end, as well as for women with uterine hypertonicity (only on the recommendation of your obstetrician-gynecologist!). There are no special contraindications for the operation of the bandage, the only exceptions are cases of allergic reactions to the material from which this product is sewn. However, before purchasing and using such a bandage, it is still recommended to get a preliminary consultation with your doctor.
Advantages of the D-423 model!
The peculiarity of this product is that, unlike the usual prenatal bandage-belt, it covers the entire abdomen. Thus, reliable fixation of the vertebrae and support of the uterus are ensured, without harming the baby and without any delay in its development. Bandage tape, sewn from a stretchy elastic material, passing along the line of the waist, under the stomach, reduces pain and a feeling of heaviness. Suchbandage panties for pregnant women stretches along with the belly, which grows, so do not be afraid that the belt suddenly becomes small, tight.
The peculiarity of a prenatal bandage such as underpants is that it protects the baby's head from premature omission in the best possible way, protects the pelvic bones from premature divergence.
How to wear and how to care for the product!
Panties-bandage, completely covering the stomach, should be worn in a supine position with a slightly raised pelvis with or without underwear. However, wearing such a bandage without underwear is unhygienic and forces you to wash the product every day. And this is not very convenient for a woman who needs regular tummy support. It is best to remove prenatal underwear while lying down. If you are not at home, and it is not possible to lie down to put on the bandage, then carefully put it on, with one hand raising your stomach a little.
Signs that the brace-pants are worn incorrectly:
After you put on the product, a pulsation begins in the groin and abdomen.
The baby is too active, trying to literally "jump" out of the stomach.
The shape of the abdomen is unnatural, elongated or skewed.
The elastic belt does not pass under the stomach, but in the area of it.
The bandage rubs the body, causes discomfort and a desire to remove it immediately.
Remember that the bandage should not be too tight, but also should not hang, giving the impression of a "deflated balloon."
