Maternity belt structure

Abstract

A maternity belt structure includes at least one protection strap for supporting/holding lower belly of a pregnant woman, a waist protection board and at least one sling. The waist protection board is attached to the back of the pregnant woman for supporting the back. The protection straps extend from two sides of the waist protection board and are wound over the waist of the pregnant woman to the lower belly to connect with each other for providing a first support force. For a humpback pregnant woman, the sling is conducted through the armpit and wound over the shoulder to connect with the protection straps and the waist protection board for providing a second support force. Therefore, the lower belly supporting/holding force of the protection strap is enhanced and the pregnant woman can more comfortably wear the maternity belt to relieve the waist and back soreness and minimize the risk of humpback.
