I hate my bella band

I am already showing and my pants are super snug in the belly so I tried my bella band on this morning and remembered quickly why I hated it with my first pregnancy.  It makes me feel like I am wearing a freaking corset and my belly immediately started sweating.  It isn't too small either, I guess I am just  not used to things being tight around my belly.  I guess I will be using a rubber band or moving to maternity early.  I can't not stand feeling wrapped up and hot in the 105 degree Texas weather!

On a happier note I scored THREE boxes of maternity clothes from a girlfriend this weekend!  Whoo hoo!!

  • I said to heck with it, and started wearing maternity pants and they are oh so comfy!

    You are a wise woman.  I think I will follow your lead ;)

  • I'm waring my bella band for the first time today - told a friend this past Friday mainly so I could get them back!  Mine work really well when I wear them underneath my pants & fold down.  That said, I live in MN, not TX, so the heat isn't quite the same!

  • I hear ya. It just makes me hot too. I'm in texas also and have just been rotating 3 sun dresses every day. haha.

    I would be in maternity clothes, but they are in the back corner of my garage and we haven't had a chance to dig them out yet. But it's time.

     How awesome about your materity clothes!!!!

    LOL! How will your boyfriend keep his hands off you? 

    My maternity jeans with the small band feel uncomfy with me, I like the ones that you can either have all the way up or roll down for a half panel. It's hot here in San Diego, which is why I'm primarily wearing Goodwill stretchy sundresses. :D Ain't spending money on something that I won't wear for much longer!

  • With the way my stomach feels I couldn't imagine wrapping something tight around it.

    Haha- thats awesome. I said that once I'm full on popped and showing I'll just wear a leotard. total opposite- but we'll see. :)

     

    sorry re: your bella band. I'd probably just wear yoga pants with a roll down belly- or like somebody said just wear maternity pants. 

  • I actually had a tube top bra thiny that I turned into a bella band for the first time and the stupid thing kept folding over and shifting all over the place. I am glad that I never actually bought one.
