Frida Mom Pregnancy Belly Band, Discreet Belly Tape for Pregnant Skin, Maternity Belly, Support, Pain, and Strain Relief, 18ft Roll with Storage Dispenser

At 30 weeks, my belly button felt like it was tearing. I was trying to prevent diastasis recti. I used a few different types of KT tape, but the Frida one was a much higher quality. It stretched more and I could wear it for a few days.My physical therapist liked it.Postpartum, I dont have diastasis recti. Not sure if it's a coincidence, but it definitely felt like that's what was happening.Definitely soak it in water to remove.

At first, this tape was like an angel from god because the minute I put it on, I felt tremendous relief and I was able to stand up normally without gripping something and my belly was lighter and it was just perfection. I noticed it was slightly itchy but I couldn’t see my belly (I put 2 strips on the lower half) and it didn’t itch enough for me to take it off. Plus it hurt to just take it off. Then 2 days later, it came off easier (it lasted 2 full days and 1 night plus a shower) and I looked at my belly and along the edges was the most horrific looking burn/blister or something. I’m assuming it means I’m allergic to the tape and I see reviews where many people are also allergic to it. The blisters looked like raised lines. It wasn’t everywhere and it was mostly on the edges of where the tape started to come off so maybe it was from the pulling…not sure…but the itchiness I’m experiencing now, a day later, is unbearable and I just need to warn you that it might happen also. Literally lying in bed with diaper rash cream all over my belly lol. Don’t know if it’ll work. I tried hydrocortisone cream last night and it worked only for like an hour. Also I’ve been putting jojoba oil on it. So far, idk how to treat it. Hopefully it just goes away

This is my third pregnancy and it’s, possibly, my biggest baby. I got to the point that the weight of him on my bladder and organs felt like a UTI or kidney infection by the end of the day. If I wear the tape, the pain stops. I haven’t tried any on my back or anything, but there’s are some drawbacks. 1. Once you touch the stick surface, the tape loses its stickiness. So make sure to place it without touching the sticky side.2. It does tend to tear my skin up some. Not any more than the insane stretch marks that I got without it though.In all, for me, this is the best maternity purchase that I have ever made… in all 3 pregnancies… with 3 massive children.

The media could not be loaded. This product left me with so much redness and irritation after having it on for only 12 hours! The removal process was rough even after trying to soak the product as recommended. When trying to remove it, my skin was already so irritated that the oil was extremely painful. And during the pull off process I still had to use cetaphil gentle cleanser to help get it up as it wanted to take a little bit of my skin in some areas. The worst part though, was that where it caused the most irritation I developed multiple little blisters, many of which popped and I’m praying it doesn’t leave a scar.I must note that I’ve never considered myself to have sensitive skin either.Giving it a 2/5 instead of a 1/5 because when it was on the lifting of my belly did feel nice, but it wasn’t worth the irritation. Also, the adhesive is no joke. I truly believe it would have lasted for days. I know the instructions said not to pull the tape too taught or it could cause some irritation, which may have been what happened to me based on the pattern of the irritation, but it didn’t feel like I was doing so during the application process.Use at your own risk and definitely put a tester piece somewhere before applying to your belly!Update to add: it’s been over a year and I still have scars from this product 😭 and the scars look way worse than the stretch marks I got during pregnancy

i normally don’t write reviews but for this product i felt i needed to share my experience with people before they buy it. i am 20 weeks pregnant and my daughter is sitting really low causing lots of lower back pains and pelvic pain. so i got the frida mom brand because i have LOVED everything else i have tried from them. So right after applying the tape i felt immediate relief and i was shocked that it helped so much. it lasted about 2 days on me, so once taking it off i noticed it had pulled my skin off and left blisters/whelps on my skin. my belly was so irritated and sensitive because of this. i have read the reviews of others saying they had the same issues and thought it wouldn’t effect me because i’ve never had super sensitive skin. but be warned this tape gives great support but it’ll not worth the aftermath and affects in skin. i am going to be trying KT Tape instead. save your money

These work great but just make sure you follow directions on how to take it off because I ripped my skin off 🤣 user error. Other than that, my skin got irritated and itchy while these were on so you might want to do a test patch before applying an entire strip.

Bought this to help relieve some tension on my pregnant belly. It definitely helped a lot, I looked up several different ways to tape my belly and ended up doing it almost the same way pictured on the box. I wore the tape for about eight hours, it did take some time to get used to the feeling of wearing it. After showering I moisturized my belly and waited a few hours before putting the tape on, also when I went to remove it at the end of the day, I did not rub oil all over. Instead I used a cotton ball with oil on it and rubbed under a small section of tape that I had lifted a little. It was very easy to remove with very little redness. I added a video doing the application and pictures after removing the tape.
