bella bands or bebands..

So after work today i decided i really need a bella band type of thing since i now have only 2 pairs of work pants that button..well went to target and found out you can only buy the small or medium size in the store the large you have to order online?? really.. how rude.

I am like a size 16 and i am sure i am not the only pregnant lady in this size.. sure i could order online but i need it this week...

where else sells these things???  I just heard of target? does motherhood maternity? i have to get one by tommorow night for sure or else i will be rotating the same 2 work pants all week!

I just think its wierd that my little baby bump really popped out this weekend...makes it real for me.

  • I am pretty sure motherhood has them.  GL!  Try the hair tie thing until you get one.

  • try on the M/L. I am about the same size as you and the M/L fit me. I bought the tank tops from them too and only needed the M/L.

  • I had both with DD but liked the target be band better that the Bella band. I thought the be band had more support and held my pants better. GL
  • Just bought a beband tonight at Target ($16.99)! Wearing it now for the first time.....feels great! Since I still have the packaging, I checked the chart on the back, and as a size 16 you should be an M/L (unless you're carrying multiples!). 

     PS-- they definitely had M/L sizes at the Target that I was at, in addition to S/M-- in fact, they had way more M/Ls.  I didn't see any XLs, but you shouldn't need that.  I'd check around!

    The BeBand at Target is a M/L. It will fit a size 16, it does me (I had to try it out today)

  • Motherhood has them too.  My mom bought one for me and I know some people swear by them, but I really don't like it.  I don't think it stays in place very well and I'm constantly adjusting it.  I would save your money and just buy a pair or two of maternity pants instead.

  • Motherhood does have them and they're only about 17 bucks a piece (at least that's what they were this weekend in Iowa.)

    I'm a plus sized mama, so I was disappointed when I went to target and saw those itty bitty bebands.  Like you, I needed something NOW so I didn't want to go online and pay upwards of 30 bucks for something I didn't even know if I'd like.

    So I went to Motherhood Maternity and they were great.  Stuff was on sale, they gave me a little gift bag full of samples and coupons.  They didn't judge me because I can't decide if I've got a baby bump or if it's mama guts.  AND they have stuff that actually fits me.  (Not always the cutest stuff :/ but some of it's decent.)

    Good luck!  Hope you can get comfy soon!
