Place the abdominal support pad (ASP) in a lifting position under the abdomen.  Fasten it in place by strapping its strap around your body and touching the velcro hook to the ASP.

You want the ASP as low under your abdomen as possible but not so low as to interfere with your legs when you walk or sit.  Slide the ASP up slightly until it doesn't interfere with your legs when lifted as shown.  The ASP is now positioned correctly.

Grip the belt securely at both ends as shown.  Stretch it forward and touch it to the ASP.  You can adjust the tension and support you feel according to the amount you stretch the belt.   To prevent skin irritation, be sure the velcro hook on the ends of the belt is entirely on the ASP and doesn't touch your skin.

For an extra sense of security, lightly stretch the tummy strap over and touch it to the velcro loop on the opposite side.  The tummy strap is not essential but many prefer to have it.  The choice to use it or remove it is yours.

Lay on your back with your knees drawn up as shown.  Release the ends of the belt, stretch it again, re-attach it to the ASP, and stand up.  This will lift the abdomen even higher to achieve even grreater relief from sagging weight and leg pain.  Repeat this step each time you put on your Loving Comfort.

Your Loving Comfort Maternity Support is now in place and you're ready to go!  As you and your baby grow, loving Comfort expands to accommodate by simply fastening further away from the center of the ASP.
