Maternity belts, or SI belts, help support the SI (sacroiliac) Joint. They can help relieve pain, help keep you in alignment, and help keep you pain free while strengthening the muscles around the SI joint. SI Joint Dysfunction exercises: • SI Joint Dysfunction E...
Maternity Belts, or SI Belts, can also be helpful if you are pregnant. In that case, they are usually referred to as Maternity Belts or Maternity Belly Bands.
You can wear an SI Belt or Maternity Belt over or under your clothes. Find the top of your pelvic or hip bones (iliac crest), and the pubic bone. You want the belt to be somewhere in between the two. It slow needs to be where the sacrum is at the back to help support that SI joint. Make sure it’s snug, but not too tight.

I have unresolved PSD from a previous pregnancy AND pre-pregnancy SI joint issues. Should I wear the belt the same way for both issues?

Omg yes! Both my first OB and my current prenatal doctor know absolutely nothing. When I mentioned it to my current prenatal doctor, her response was, "I heard that really sucks", then she carried on with the appointment. I've had to take initiative with my SI joint pain and PGP... unfortunately our only physiotherapist who specializes in those ailments is fully booked and I'm on a wait list.

What do you do when you are carrying ao low that the blet is uncomfortable no matter what? I find I always have to adjust it because my bump shoots straight out from my groin. I carry insanely low. I still try to wear it when I'm out, but I find it doesn't give me enough support. I feel like I need to hold my belly up in order to wear one of these... but then that defeats the purpose of the belt if I'm physically holding my bump up 😭. I'm honestly at a loss of what to do, and I'm 29 weeks. I do my exercises and yoga as best as I can to help with the pain (all my exercises I've had to find on KZfaq because I can't get in to see a physiotherapist and my doctor is clueless about PGP and SI Joint Pain). I'm in tears half the time now from the pain, though.

Yes, external compression like the belt is fine and won't make it worse, but make sure you are being cautious with physical activity. Good luck!
