I had this up before and accidentally took the wrong blog down, oops! What is this wrap or belt in my profile pic? I looked through some pics and saw this. I hide a prior surgery well and pride myself on having a fashion sense. I was wondering who made this belt/wrap? It has been a while, and I can't remember. I know this post could have been somewhere else, but I figured here would work. I have called a lot of companies, and I cannot find it. Also, if you click on my profile, I have two pics of it laying on a table.

I'm not sure, to be quite honest; it doesn't look like it gives much help. I know of a very good stormy belt in 5 strengths, with 5 being for a hernia or prevention of one. I will do my homework and get back to you.

Thank you for your quick reply. I'll discuss irrigation with my doctor. I'm sure it would be down the road. My output is still very liquid. It's all so unpredictable at 6 weeks post-op. I have such a fear of constipation as I struggled with this forever. I used a fiber source to thicken the stool but it hasn't helped very much. I guess I will continue to be positive but it is a bit of a pain. This website is great and everyone is so informative. Cheryl

Just having a quick look, Coloplast seems to supply it. Good luck and God bless.

It really doesn't give much help; more or less, it covers. Actually, most are knockoffs of pregnant bands. Realistically, I built my chest up so that it busts out of a C cup, lol. So basically, the girdle, if you will, is not needed, nor did I ever care. When in the gym, I use corrective form, which most people don't. It's hard to explain, but you're right; it doesn't give just like a cover. Also, it's easily washable, made of cotton, I presume. Thanks for the response. The search continues.
