Pants on the ground

in 2nd Trimester

I bought my first pair of maternity jeans (Motherhood's secret fit belly) and I love them...  Except that they fall down CONSTANTLY.  I'm talking every few steps I'm pulling them up.  Does anyone else have this problem?  Any solutions for it?  I thought about trying a bella band, but it seems that would be the same as this secret fit panel that won't stay up.

 TIA.

    Yes!!! Well, not right now, lol. I bought a pair of mediums last year while pg with DD and they constantly fell down and their return policy sucks (the nearest is also 3 hours away). This time I am buying a small!! I loved them but man, hiking them up, even while in the 3rd tri, sucked.

    They have these super stretchy tank top undershirts that they sell.  These help keep my pants up :)

    I wear mine with my BeBand and that keeps them up.  The BeBand fits really snug and I have never had a problem with it falling down.

    If you fold the bella band down once (because it's soo long), it is tight enough to keep those pants up I think...worth a shot!

    Mine do the same thing right now, but I have heard that once you belly gets larger, they stay up better.  I also heard that if you put one of the belly band things over the secret belly part it will keep them up better.  I also found that if I fold the top of the band down it stays up a little better.

    Thanks, ladies.  I guess trying a tummy tube is worth it.  Anything to fix this problem!  The worst part is my pants take my panties with them when they slide down.  It's terrible.

    In the beginning that is how they fit because you don't exactly have a belly yet to hold them up. This is the lovely in between part of pregnancy!! Give it a month or so and they should fit fine!

    This exactly. I hate the tan lining in the jeans, so I wear the white bella band folded over once.

    The first time I wore the maternity jeans they were falling down ALL day! Since then I've worn them twice with the bella band and they're perfect!

    Just hold onto them- there are pants for all stages- and those must be for "later" when you will be able to keep them up!

    this exactly. i have the same exact pair from MM, and when i don't wear them with my beband, i have problems. i wear the beband, and it's just once or twice a day that i need to readjust.

    i'm hoping that by the time i'm ginormous, they'll stay up on their own.... we'll see :)
