 Helps a lot August 8, 2010

The prenatal cradle has helped my back pain significantly, and I am happy with it. It gets 4 stars because it doesn't relieve my back pain completely. In addition, the sizing is hard to get right. Most reviews said even if you rate as a size small according to the prenatal cradle's weight recommendations, to get a size medium. Therefore, that's what I did. I use it on the smallest of the three settings, and it works pretty well. However, I was just beginning my 3rd trimester when I started wearing it. I am quite large (this is my second pregnancy, and at 32 weeks now I've already exceeded the amount of weight I gained during my entire pregnancy the first time around, which ended just before 36 weeks), but I'm also only 5 feet tall. Yet, even now, I am 40 lbs below the minimum suggested weight for the size medium. Had I ordered the cradle sooner, and I needed it sooner because my back started hurting during my second trimester, it might have been too large to use at first even on the smallest setting. Whether or not the prenatal cradle size small would have worked throughout my second and third trimesters, I will never know, but I'm thinking it would have. So my suggestion would be if you are short, to get the size that does match your weight, and if you are an average or tall height, to get one size larger than your weight.
I'd also like to mention that I tried a couple of the supporters that go around the hips and lower back. One of them relieved my back pain completely, but it squeezed my hips so much that it hurt my hips to walk, and it folded over and was uncomfortable when I sat down. The other one I tried made my back hurt even more than without wearing it. The prenatal cradle is very comfortable while sitting or standing, and as I mentioned earlier, helps reduce my back pain a ton. I do wear a thin, stretchy, seamless, short-sleeved shirt underneath it. Good luck!
 hot and itchy August 4, 2010

I am a waitress and 8 months pregnant. My Dr. recommended this product to relieve back pain and discomfort due to my expanding waistline(haha) It looked promising but upon arrival I tried it on and instantly it was itchy and uncomfortable. The next day I tried to wear it to work with a tank top underneath to help with the itchiness. I took it off within the first 10 minutes of work.My two year old now wears it around the house. I do not recommend this product.
Totally worth it July 7, 2010

My OBGYN recommended this support for me, not for back pain, but for some relief from vericrose veins and varicrosities that have plagued me this pregnancy. She had the same issue with her own last pregnancy and used this support so it was a personal recommendation.
Based on reviews here, I ordered up a size from the sizing chart, which was the way to go. I'm 30 weeks and currently weigh about 160, and the medium was definitely the correct size for me.
First, this device is VERY comfortable. I could wear it to bed! I was worried it would bother my skin in the hot weather but it is comfortable. More importantly, it really, really has helped my discomfort from the vericrose veins.
The only reasons I gave it 4 and not 5 stars are:
1) It is impossible to wear under many tops, due to the positioning of the upper straps.
2) It could be more adjustable at the belly - it has three sets of hook fasteners (like a bra) but they're SO far apart, so it can be hard to get the correct level of tightness depending on your size. Velcro or more rows of hooks would have been more useful.
I might never have tried a product like this if my doctor hadn't suggested it, but now I'm telling every pregnant woman I know about it.
Great! July 5, 2010

Great for a twins pregnancy! It relieve tension from your back and presure from your hips.
It's really helps.
great product June 9, 2010

I ordered this item as I went into my 29th week. I am very petite so the extra baby weight really was causing a lot of back pain. It was only a matter of minutes after I put this on that i felt plenty of relief. It is not the most fashionable thing on earth but it does the job. I am able to wear it under my uniform without problems. I highly recommend it!
