Too Late for Belly Bandit?

[BlessedEarthMother]

I am 5 wks pp and I just found a belly bandit at a discount store in my mall for $2! Does anyone know if it will still do any good for me to use it? It feels good and supportive when I put it on so it at least is helping that way. I was just wondering if it will still help to shrink my belly or not.

I don't see why it wouldn't help.
I have one (wish I had found one for $2!!) and I certainly feel like I'm engaging the transverse muscles when I have it on.
