What I would pay to keep my pants up!! vent

in 3rd Trimester

this is re.dic.ulous!!!  it wasn't near this bad with dd.  i haven't been able to keep my pants from sliding down in months and i have several more to go.  i don't know if it's b/c i'm even bigger this time or if it's b/c i'm lower too but it's driving me NUTS. 

on top of that, my sagging pants are pulling my panties down too so it's not like i can ignore it.  i put on lounge/pj pants when i walk in the house so atleast those will stay put :(

ok, i'm done

    I'm right there with you.  Actually thought about getting suspenders the other day!  LOL  Can you picture that...a pregnant woman wearing suspenders haha

    me too- I feel like I spend half the day pulling my pants up and my shirt down!  I think it's because I'm carrying so low, and have absolutely no butt to keep them up!

    Suspenders actually sound like a fantastic idea! My maternity pants don't stay up no matter what I try. Glad to know I'm not alone!

    I've been using a bella band on top of the panel to keep them up.  It really helps and its comfortable--it actually supports my belly too.

    Me too! I hate wearing maternity pants for this reason, I'm constantly pulling them up and like pp said, my  shirt down. My favorite things to wear are dresses that are flowie and my pjs.

    This.

    It's the only thing working for me so far.

    the only maternity pants I own that are staying where they belong is my Secret Fit pants from Motherhood. My underbelly and other full panel pants? Forget it.

    i guess i could break back out the bella band.  i haven't used it since early on but it's worth a try. 

     just hope i don't stretch it out cause i used it pp with dc#1 for the loose/jelly belly...it really helped with that.

    I second the Bella band. It's the only thing that has kept mine up

    Totally understand!  I have no hips or rear end to keep mine up.  I have like 5 different brands of pants and none of them are any better than another.  I live in my pj pants when I'm not at work.

    I have had much better luck with the no band pants. I have 2 pairs of cords that just have a 2-3in elastic waist and I seriously LOVE them! The full panel or mid panel were constantsly riding down on me and they have only seemed to get worse as I've gotten bigger. So, I stick to the low ones and I feel soooo much better!
