Today I had to unbutton my pants as soon as I let my students go, I think it's time to buy one of those bandy things so i can be comfy! I'm only 6 weeks! eek!
I got a belly band and hated it. If you do get one, purchase it at a place you can return it just in case you don't like it. I just pinned my pants as long as I could then finally broke down and bought maternity pants.
I didn't love the belly band either. I know it sounds funny but loop a rubber band over the button of your pants then through the button hole. It works for a few weeks. Just wear a long shirt. Oh and your DH will make fun of you!
Re: it's too early!!!
I feel your pain. I am only 7 weeks and I can barely button, even though I've only gained 2 pounds!
