Breaking out the bella band at 6 weeks

hmontty · May 2012

Bought two pairs of capris last week, same size but different colors. Wore one pair a couple days ago. Just tried to put on the other pair tonight, and the button was like two inches from the hole! Checked the size again, thinking I accidentally bought a size (or two!) down, but I didn't. Hooray bloat!

I just received my bella band on Friday! It's weird for me I felt really bloated during the 4th week then started drinking A LOT of water (~3 liters/day) and started fitting in my clothes better. The bella band is here if I need it!

I have used mine, too. I wore some loose/drapey camp pants today, and DH noticed my bulge right away. He got excited and was patting my tummy. I said, "honey, at almost 7 weeks, it's not baby. It's bloat. But...thanks, anyway!"

My bloat is ridiculous. I bought a Belly band on Saturday. It was much needed!

I know I'm going to be needing a bella band here in the weeks to come as well. Where have you ladies purchased them? I believe I've seen them at Target but I'm not totally sure.

I had bought mine for the last pregnancy at Target. Much better quality than one I had purchased elsewhere... but being 3 yrs ago, I don't remember where that 'elsewhere' was!

Thanks! I thought I remembered hearing you could get them at Target but I wasn't sure.

What is a bella/belly band? My last pg was 8 years ago and I never heard of them then!

Any amazing creation that allows you to wear your regular pants for longer by helping to cover the button and zipper area. Check one out here. Or more here.

I got the Bella Band on Amazon, and I love it! They are pricier than the ones at Target but I think it is worth it.

I am thinking I am going to have to get one of these soon. My work pants are getting kinda tight. and its all bloat. but i am ok with that

I definitely need one! My first pregnancy I didn't need maternity clothes until almost20 weeks, but now I already feel my pants getting too tight. I know it's just a bloat, but I hate it!

I broke down last night and put on my band (from Target). My pants were super tight and I was on my way to dinner so I didn't want to chance it. I should've done this much sooner!

I got mine from target a couple years ago. i think they're like $20.
