Panni Girdle?????
I bought my "baby girdle" on Ebay. It was brand new in the plastic, and was only about $12.00. They are also washable and bleachable, so a gently used one would be perfectly safe.
**Also, if you are documenting rashes, etc for TT approval TAKE PICTURES and make sure they are DATED, no matter how embarassing it is to take. If it will make the difference between misery and relief saving thousands of $$ it is worth it.**

I spent a lot of time looking for such a thing. I saw many maternity products, but I never ordered one because a preganat belly is pretty firm---my problem is with a 'jelly belly' that I'm convinced would just spill over the top of any maternity sling I've seen.
My solution was to design and sew my very own 'belly bra', custom-tailored to my dimensions.
Teresa,
This is for you and anyone else hoping for reconstructive surgery post op please take the time to read my profile - I have a section after my helpful hints in regards to working toward insurance approval right from the start - do not wait until you are long post op and ready for a TT or other procedures -start now and document ever sore, back ache etc. Good Luck.

This is kind of embarrassing, but true...
I often just wear "good" old-fashioned granny type girdle things, or strong support panel undies, at least. The kind that are terribly expensive, in my opinion, and butt-ugly to boot.
But they do make me feel "together" more. I don't jiggle so much, and frankly, being down in the 240s from 460s, I have a LOT to jiggle. It pains me to exercise from the hanging pannus and my pendulous breasts. These undergarments actually reduce pain for me.
I have found that you can find more of them in "us" sizes at places like Catherine's, and if you're lucky, sometimes at places like Ross, Marshalls Or TJ Maxx for a really good price.
Good luck!
