kareyquilts 1 Posted May 2, 2008 Esmeralda: My doc said to wear a compression garment to exercise. Other than that it is for my comfort. I have stopped wearing it to bed, but I still wear one in the day. My stomach just begins to ache, if I don't. I bought some Spanx-like girdles at Dillards. I liked their style, price and brands. They had one that went almost to the bra area and snapped at the bottom. I liked this feature because it was easy to use the bathroom without pulling up and down on the inscision line. It also stays up really well and doesn't have legs. Don't remember the brand name but I'm sure that all Dillards probably carry them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
