Is it really the miracle product that 2nd tri seems to think it is? I'm just starting to bulge out of my regular pants and not ready for anything involving panels yet, but i'm suspicious of the Bella band. isn't it kind of obvious that your pants are undone? don't you have to be extra careful to wear an extra long shirt to cover it up?i'm all about the layered look and wear camis under my shirts all the time, but this seems like it would look kind of sloppy.

Re: tell me about the Bella band
I LOVE my band! At first I wasn't sure it was worth the money but it has saved me a lot on maternity pants. I'm 23 weeks and I still wear some of my regular pants with the band. I got a black one at Target for about $18 and I have been wearing it so much that I am going to go back and get a white one. I've never used the Bella band but the Target ones work fine for me.
I don't think that people can tell your pants are unbuttoned and it helps hold up your pants just fine. I also think these will be very helpful after the baby is born when trying to fit back into regular clothes.
DH asked me if they make them for men because he has gained more weight with the pregnancy than I have!
Agreed. But it was handy for keeping up my maternity pants when they were too loose, which was really helpful. I used the Motherhood Maternity knockoff.
