Are you “in between”?

If you are struggling to get back into your pants, let us introduce you to Waist Bandit.

We know how frustrating it is to have a swollen, bloated belly, and none of your favorite pants or skirts will fit. Don’t go through the added frustration and expense of buying clothing to accommodate your swelly belly.

The Waistband Extender comes in a kit that includes everything you need to adjust the pants already in your closet. You have the option for buttons or hook extender.

Check out the Waist Bandit which extends your pants width easily and simply.

What size do I need?

We get this question very often! Which binder will be the best fit post op!

So when measuring for the abdominal binder, we suggest you follow these guidelines:

  • Measure the area below the belly button and above the hips. Do not measure your waist.
  • Do not use your pants size to determine sizing. Each designer seems to have a different opinion on sizing! 🙂
  • Take swelling into account! If you are borderline between two sizes size up. If you are ordering an Abdominal Binder you can purchase a second one at a discount. Then you could get both and have them on hand once the swelling resides.

More questions about the abdominal binder? Check them out in the Hysterectomy Store.
