Wearing Corset While Sleeping? Tips On How To Do It Safely
Corsets are incredibly useful tools for ensuring that you stay in shape. A Corset can serve as a waist trainer to keep your waist in its ideal size. These trainers can usually be worn for the recommended eight to ten hours a day. However, not everyone is able to do the waist training needed during the day because of work and other things they need to do. That leaves the night as the best time for wearing these wonderful waist trainers.
That said, wearing a trainer can be incredibly difficult for first-timers. It presents a lot of logistical problems that can make sleep uncomfortable and even unsafe. If you are considering using waist trainers while you are sleeping, the following are tips that may prove useful in ensuring that it is safe:
Know which type of corset works for you
There are hundreds of types of corsets that can be worn for evening wear. The key thing here is to pick out the corset that you feel you will be most comfortable in.
Every person has a different sleep experience, which makes your choice in corsets a personal one. There are a lot of things to consider: the kind of surface you sleep in, the position you most enjoy, your budget and even allergies that you may have. Do not rush in picking out one.
Try sleeping on your back
Most people who use waist trainers during sleep found sleeping on their back was the easiest. This is not something that will be applicable to all, of course. But if you are desperate to sleep well, you may want to give this a shot.
Lace up the trainer an inch less
When wearing corsets during the day, people usually hold in their gut. This is not the case during the night when you are asleep as the muscles in your tummy are relaxed. This can mean that the corset will be tighter than usual. To get around that, lace the trainer up by an inch so it will be more comfortable.
Wear a less restrictive model
If the current waist trainer you are using is not working for you, maybe you are better off going for something that is less tight and less restrictive.
Use small pillows or towels to support back
People who have utilized waist trainers when they sleep have attested to the wonders of using pillows. It is a matter of placement to make sure that your back is supported well without adding any discomfort to how you are sleeping.
Avoid eating before sleeping
Eating a heavy serving of dinner just a few hours before sleeping can result in a bloated stomach, thus making sleep awkward. If possible, only eat a light meal to make sleeping as comfortable as it should be.
Start slowly with your corset wearing
You will not get used to waist trainers that easily. It is called a "trainer" after all. Accept that it is going to be a challenge at first and anticipate that things will get better as you progress through its use.
