Nine months of nurturing and allowing your baby to develop and grow has clearly taken a toll on your body. Bodyment’s Guide to Postpartum Compression Garments will provide some answers and point you in the right direction when choosing compression garments.

Increased hormones, extra blood flow, water retention, skin stretching and muscle separation all participate in making it difficult to get your post baby bump to disappear. Pregnancy is a wonderful thing. But your tummy may not look like it did nine months ago. We got you!
