I'm five days also. I wear it most of the day but my stomach does need a break from it after having it on so long. It does help with internal swelling. My problem now is its stretching out and harder to get on tight enough.

No I sleep in mine. It just feels better to me to be snug.

I wear my binder non stop until my follow up with the surgeon and they have me wearing those dumb compression hose. Surgery date 10/4 RNY.

I was wondering about a binder if its something they put on you at hospital or something you go get yourself or do you ask them at hospital for one

What's a binder?

[kisersassy 369]

Its like a girdle that holds in your stomach

I came out of surgery with mine on.
