      How should pregnant women use a belly support belt? Under normal circumstances, expectant mothers do not need to use a belly support belt. Pregnant mothers should use a belly support belt under the following circumstances:

      1. The original fetal position was breech. After the doctor performed external inversion surgery to convert it to the cephalic position, in order to prevent it from returning to the original breech position, an abdominal support belt should be used to prevent it.

      2. An expectant mother who has had a history of childbirth and whose abdominal wall has become very loose, resulting in a hanging abdomen.

      3. When loose pain occurs in the ligaments connecting the pelvis, an abdominal support belt should also be used to support the back and relieve pain.

      4. Tested to be multiple births, or fetus Expectant mothers whose abdominal wall is too large and have obvious sagging when standing.
