Babybelly Groin Bands ($62)

There are plenty of odd bodily changes that occur throughout pregnancy. Vaginal varicose veins, abdominal hernias, and pubic swelling are just a few of the things that no one tells you about beforehand. The Babybelly Groin Bands are designed to support the pubic area and help relieve the feeling that "everything is going to fall out the bottom."

I've had three children, and the perineal massage oil is the ONLY one of these I ever heard of ( in the context of my midwife telling me that olive oil works just as well.) However did I survive? LOL. The electrical stimulator patches for contractions would have been good to try though. Interestng how everthing is an opportunity to sell something now.

I have 2 kids and have never heard of most of these. Actually, the belly support band is the only thing I knew about.

That TENS machine is interesting. Wonder if it actually works.

I probably would have tried the crotch support with my first. She rode soooo low and dropped way ahead of time that it just felt like i had a 90 pound weight about to burst through at any minute. My son was high though, right till birth and i had virtually no pelvic pressure.
