If the fit is funny, try it upside down
Let me start off with the most important part for me: the size is accurate to their product description. This has been an issue with a few bands for me, so that's a biggy. When I first tried it on, I put it on as directed on the packaging. In this position, the fit was okay and I had some support, but due to my butt/hip to waist ratio, the lumbar area was gaping off my back. It wasn't the biggest deal, definitely better than nothing, but the upper lumbar support was just hanging out and making my back hot. I decided after a few hours to try turning it upside down, and that worked WAY better for me; hips and back felt better within a few minutes.This is not so much a product issue, but a heads up for the bigger ladies: like any kind of compressionwear/shapewear, this will conglomerate your pooch area. Doesn't bother me, but I see lots of reviews complaining about a FUPA, so just be aware this will change the shape of your upper pelvic area. I don't think it looks particularly bad, and the support is well worth it to me.And I almost forgot: I can sit in this without issue! That is another problem I've had with some of the other bands.

Would definitely recommend.
Currently 7 months pregnant. Since this is not my first pregnancy, my abdominal muscles don't hold my uterus as well as previously, so I have a lot of pain and cramping when I walk. This belt helps me hold up my growing belly while easing the pressure off my pelvis and lower back. Would definitely recommend.

it's pretty straight forward
Wearing this for the first time today. I had some time putting it on, there are no instructions. I know...it's pretty straight forward, but I like to know if I am doing it correctly.So far, my back pain has not been an issue today. However, this thing itches and I am so tempted to take it off at work and deal with the pain.

It's not great when you're sitting however
I'm in my 7th month & I was really suffering from back pains badly. This belt definitely helped a lot. It's not great when you're sitting however, but I don't suppose it was meant to be for sitting. If I have to walk or stand for long periods of time then this works really well. Quality is good considering the price.

Meh
Not very supportive past a certain size. Best for early pregnancy-mid 2nd trimester. Material causes sweating, undershirt underneath recommended. A little too bulky for my likes.

Cheap material, velcro stops working after 3 weeks.
At first, the belt works well. However, after about 3 weeks of use the material no longer sticks to the velcro, making it impossible to wear. It's also a bit bulky and as your belly grows, it will become uncomfortable to sit while wearing this. Lastly, the manufacturers do not share what materials are used in this. They claim it's "cotton", but there is no tag anywhere on the band. The material feels cheap and not breathable.

Don't buy this
This worked great for about three weeks, then the Velcro stopped working and it would just pop off me every time I tried to wear it. So I definitely wouldn't buy it again. I contacted the seller twice to ask if they could send a refund or another one that wasn't defective and never got any response.

Really great product!
Really great product! I've only had it for two days and noticed how much it's helping me. I bought this belt because I was having lots of pelvic pain I'm always moving and walking I've been nesting my whole pregnancy I just can't sit down so that causes me to have a lot of pelvic pain and wearing this belt has really helped me a lot I'm not moving slow, and it's not as much pressure on my pelvis.
