Postpartum

I have decided to do an intense study on postpartum corsetry. The information on this subject is rather sparce and I personally do not like the belly bands you can get. They do not offer back support that a corset would.

Belly binding is popular in many cultures so it makes sense to me that perhaps - in a culture where corsets were a staple part of the clothing, much like bras are now - there were at one time corsets designed for the postpartum lady.

Over the next month or so I will be doing research and when the bump is born testing out various types of corset and seeing if corseting can help retain and repair the damaged muscles which occur through pregnancy.
