How to keep full panel pants from falling?

My regular pants are getting way too tight, even with a bella band, so I'm beginning to transition to pregnancy pants.  The only issue I am having is after walking around for a few minutes, the full panel pants keep slowly falling down.  Does anyone have any tricks to keep them up?

  • I have the same problem. I wear tight tanks under nearly everything. They help keep them up. Also try folding the panel over once or twice so it lays under your belly. This only works under baggier tops.

    I couldn't wear those until at least 6-7 months pregnant. Your belly might be too small right now. I am still in my regular jeans this time around but last time I loved those pants with the thick band rather than the panel. They even stayed up post-partum.

  • I have a beband from target not only can I wear it with my normal pants but I also use it to hold my panel pants up and it really works
  • I wear a tight tank top under them tucked in and fold the panel and put a belly band over it and then wear a longer tank top (the ones from costco are amazing for this) over the top to hide the belly band and what not and it works.

  • I just use the bella band to help keep up maternity pants that I haven't QUITE filled out yet. I am at the same point as you...regular clothes are too tight, but maternity clothes are a little too big.

    That seems like a lot of work!

  • My pants with the panel stay up just fine -- and have for about a month.  Hmmm....maybe I'm just a fatty.

    or maybe we just bought tight pants.  I hope my butt doesnt grow too much. There is only room for belly growth in mine. 

    I love the long panel pants.

    I used to wear a belly band over them or fold them down. Now, I wear a tank over it which are needed for the shirts I have worn so far.
