Tonus Elast Medical Umbilical Hernia Bandage for Children, Baby Navel Support Belt, Adjustable Hernia Brace for Infants

Brilliant! I actually bought two belts like this as I wasn't sure which one would work. I started off by using the more expensive blue one on my baby but after a whole week of using there was very little difference to baby's bellybutton.I switched to this product and it worked so much better!! First of all it actually stayed in place unlike the other strap. It looked a lot more comfortable for the baby to wear and the plastic ball was hard and therefore actually pushed the umbilical hernia in. We noticed a significant improvement with every day of wear. One photo shows the hernia after using the first more expensive strap for a week (little to no improvement), another photo shows the hernia after using this product for only 4 days (huge improvement!) And the final photo shows the hernia over a month later (no hernia).We only used the belt for about 2 weeks and then stopped as it had made so much improvement and I felt it could heal on its own then.When using this product, we put it on his vest and he wore it during the day only.I'm sure his bellybutton would have healed by itself anyway but I do think this product made it happen a lot faster and sooner then it would have done.

An excellent product. I was sceptical but my daughter's hernia seemed to be getting more protrusive each day. So without guidance from medical professionals, I used my gut instinct and I am so glad I did. My daughter's hernia completely retracted with little discomfort. It took 6 weeks or so, four weeks wearing night and day and then just at night. The result was unbelievable. I use to hear liquids rumbling in her tummy as her gut was protruding, now it is totally normal. Well worth the purchase. Thanks for a great product. For any mothers or fathers who are unsure, my advice is to give it a try, you have nothing to lose.

The belt moves a lot so I'm not sure how l9ng it stays on the belly button

Please check with your doctor before using, just to be safe.Our daughter was being referred for surgery at her 6 week check up as her hernia was so large, I asked the doctor if it was safe to use a belt. He said yes but he didn't think it would make much difference.Around a month if the belt, (mostly) consistently and we're just left with a little outie now. Hernia all gone.100% worth a go before surgery.

This product is very helpful after only 4 days use I saw an improvement on my 3 going on 4 month old. Wish I had discovered it sooner. Only reason it gets 4 stars is because it doesn't always stay in place has to be adjusted several times. Other than that very helpful in the fight against umbilical hernia.

This did exactly what it was supposed to do. Baby no longer has a hernia. GP did nothing - NHS have stopped supplying these and medical advise was to not use it in case it strangulates the bowel and to leave the hernia alone and it would go down by itself. I think this is the NHS using excuses to save money, the babies hernia kept growing and was showing through the clothes. . I had twins both with the same problem so I brought one and used it one one twin. He has a normal belly button now - inner. (I am writing this 2 years later). The other twin had it applied later and his hernia has gone down but is an outie which I think is because he had it applied later. I regret listening to the GP and no buying this sooner as I am sure that both would have had normal belly buttons if I had used it sooner. Anyways hope it helps someone else with a baby.

I have a 3 month old twin with a large umbilical hernia, with colic. Every time he would cry the hernia would pop out and over the period of 2-3 weeks was the size of a small plum. The GP said we will operate if still present at 3/4 years of age. Every time he cried it would get bigger and the idea of an operation wasn’t fun! I read the reviews and thought I would try this, amazingly after 3 weeks it has reversed and now all intestine are behind the abdominal wall. I want to thank whoever invented this as it save me and my family a lot of stress. 😊

Bought two for my kids.Total waste of money.The belt was way tooo tiny and shortWould not go round the baby and won’t stick.Don’t waste your money.Requested for return but the seller won’t respond.Crap
