 Great so far! October 28, 2008
I just received my Prenatal Cradle Plus so I can't give a very detailed review yet, but I can tell you that it instantly helps with the pain of vulvular varicosities. I have been unable to walk without pain for weeks and this made a difference immediately. I tried the crazy support stockings and everything, but this is tons better.
I had it shipped to my office and was able to figure it out and put it on in a restroom stall, and at seven months pregnant, doing anything in a restroom stall is a trick! Some have complained about the top straps showing but I found a way around that. Get some of the tiny binder clips from the office supply section and clip the straps to your bra. These clips don't have sharp edges and you don't even know they are there.
I agonized over the price of this thing for a long time, but even after just a few hours in it, I totally think it was worth it. My doctor recommended it and my insurance even covered it. If you want to file yours, get a prescription from your doc and save your receipt. It is considered a medical device by my insurer (a major company in the southeast) so maybe yours will cover it too.
Worked beautifully!! September 19, 2008
If you have hip pain, groin pain, your privates are swollen b/c of a vericose (spell?) vein, well this thing works well!! It is sized right. I got a small, but I was on the higher weight of the small. So don't buy bigger. You want it to be tighter to apply pressure to the groin area to stop the vein pain. Best of luck with this.... I can say it saved my sanity by lowering/stopping the pain!!

This review is for the prenatal cradle with the V2 support. I am 5 mo pregnant with twins and feel huge. I bought this hoping it would relieve pelvic pressure and support my growing tummy. I bought a size that was completely by a few lbs larger than my current weight.
Pros: It does work to support.
Cons:
The velcro that tightens the strap to support your tummy is at an odd angle and pokes uncomfortably through most panties. unless you wear great granny bloomers, you have to fiddle with it to even get it to fall within panty lines
There is absolutely no way to adjust the hip -- It is already uncomfortably tight! I don't see how this is going to last me thro even next 25 lbs though it claims all the way thro 50 lbs more when I am expanding sideways as well with twins. What a waste of ninety dollars.
The other reviewers are right on about the straps always showing everywhere. If it worked comfortably, that would not be an issue for me since I need the support when I have to walk around.
Definitely takes the pressure off lower back and bladder May 30, 2008
I bought this about half way through my third pregnancy. I have a history of back problems and have had one spinal surgery. Almost instantly, it took pressure off my lower back. Additionally I find that when I wear it, I make fewer trips to the bathroom....I assume that is because it helps lift the weight off my bladder.
The only negative, is that it is difficult to hide under clothing. Not a big problem for me, as I am home most of the time and wear it then. I don't often keep it on when going outside the house.
Definitely worth a try if you are suffering with low back pain.
Excellent pregnancy aid August 13, 2007

This is my second pregnancy and both times I was in a great deal of discomfort...so much so that I couldn't walk some days.
This prenatal cradle has made a world of difference and allowed me to enjoy my pregnancy. I highly recommend it. The only downside is that the straps do sometimes show when you're wearing an open neck shirt.
