postpartum body shapers?

I've heard that wearing a body shaper after you give birth really helps pull things back in. I've been on the Spanx website but they want $76 for theirs. Has anyone used a body shaper they can recommend that's cheaper

I would like to know where you could get them cheaper too. I just today checked out that website and couldn't believe how much they were!

With my first I just wore Support top panty hose under my clothes. I did it so I could fit into normal clothes while I was waiting for my skin to tighten up. After my first I didn't really care and just wore stretchy clothes.

i got mine on sale at lane bryant. 

Hi Ladies  

DONT get the Spanx....after all the good things ive heard, they didnt do anything. seriously. I could tell absolutly no difference in the way my clothing looked before and after. Even my hubby agreed. I spent $80 for nothing and im pissed.

awww that bites?i got one just smidge smaller so it held stuff up and in.. i mean yeah is till look fat but.. it helped.. mine goes all the way up to under my boobs.. like a granndy.. the ones that dont go that far up dont work that well for me.

i got the dr. rey one from sears. it was $40 and it helped so much. my tummy muscles were just gone and it really helped me stand up straight. it also took at least an inch or 2 off when i wore my clothes and smoothed out my rolls. :p i loved it and still wear it with some of my dressy clothes.

ive had 2 c sections and my tummy does. 

My momma had one for a while when I was little..but she kept on alot of weight after having my brothers. She didn't lose it for years later. She's still beautiful to me, but I just worry I will end up with one..

Do those tummy band things you can get in the exercise section help any?

they have them at walmart for like 10 dollars

I baught one of the ones from walmart that I plan on using, Ive also got one of those suck in the fat suits haha cheap spanx I guess, we'll see if they work!
