6 Reasons
Why SRC Compression Garments are often the better alternative to a pregnancy belt or band
The generic terms such as "pregnancy belt" and "belly band" historically refer to a range of different maternity support garments that may safely help alleviate some discomfort throughout your pregnancy. However, these products should be worn in moderation and with caution to avoid any potential adverse effects3.

01
Pregnancy bands or belts, if worn excessively tight may potentially affect blood circulation, pelvic floor health, bowel function and may cause muscle deactivation of your lower abdominals and back. 1,2
02

Pregnancy bands or belts generally do not extend across the vulval area therefore are unable to treat vulval varicies. SRC Pregnancy garments' triple layer gusset panel provides even compression to the entire perineal area.

03
It is recommended that pregnancy belts or bands are to be worn for a limited number of hours at a time. 1,2
04

A number of belts aren’t designed to move with your body, which leaves you feeling restricted and require constant readjustment when sitting down or getting up.

05
Pregnancy belts or bands can sometimes be unflattering especially when worn under fitted clothing.
06

A number of belts pregnancy belts or bands have hooks, loops or velcro which might snag on your clothing.
