Belly Bands

I need a comfortable belly band but there are so many to choose from. Does anyone have any recommendations on a great one?

I got the Bella band...it works well even in the early stages and is tons more comfortable than the rubber band trick! It can tend to ride up a bit but not enough where it bothered me. I got it on amazon for $25-ish I think.

If you use the search function this has been discussed. From memory the Bella Band was popular but check the thread.

Bella band is the only kind I've tried, but I'd buy it again.

I've tried the Bella Band and the Motherhood knockoff.  The Bella Band is the way to go.  The knockoffs aren't nearly comparable.

The Bella band rolls up on my hips - I have wide hips and a smaller (for now) waist. It just didn't work for me. Maybe when my bump is more present.

I bought a bella band at Target for $17 or $18. It does roll up my hips a little after i've been sitting for awhile. The material is soft. I haven't tried any other brands for comparison.

I've been using the Bella band too, and I've just folded it down halfway since it's too much fabric at this stage. It is really soft and will be nice throughout the pregnancy though.

A Cami with the built in bra works best for me & it's comfortable. Doesn't roll up the hips.

I bought the target brand ones and they work great. I've worn them both folded and all the way up. They do role up when I am at my desk for a long time, but are easily adjusted when I stand. Just like pulling down a regular cami. Order legit maternity pants today from Kohls, they were on sale buy one get one for a $1.

I have the Target brand and it is just ok.  I think a long cami actually works better with the rubberband trick. 

I made the switch to maternity pants rather than mess with the bands.  Life is too short to wear uncomfortable pants!

I got the one from Target and hated it.  I went straight into maternity pants and was SO MUCH HAPPIER!

I second @genepoolperfect 's suggestion. I got the same Bella Band (the kind with the silicone gripper on one end) and they work wonderfully. I haven't had issues with them shifting around - the silicone really helps keep it from riding up.

Thank you all so much for the advice!

I use a Bella Band and it's been great, but I find my stretchy maternity pants are the most comfortable. Jeggings of course..
