BeBand (Target version of bella band)

in June 2012 Moms

My pants are sooo uncomfortable with all this bloat, so I went to target to buy their version of the bella band, called the BeBand. I ran in to a lady there that swore they were the best thing ever. I took one out of the box and it seriously just looked like a tub top I would have worn in college. But anyways, I wore it on Sunday, which is typically my lazy day. The only place I went to was church. I thought it worked pretty well at keeping my pants situated right. I didn't feel like my crack was going to be exposed any minute. (lol)

Today, I wore it to work and it did absolutely nothing for me. I work on the floor with developmentally delayed children, and I spend alot of time bending around, moving things, prompting the kids back in to their chair, that type of thing. I ended up having to force my pants buttoned half way thru the day, and I'm glad I brought my belt because I ended up having to put that on too. We aren't allowed to expose our underwear, back skin, (and certainly no crack) at any time. Sooo basically, I think the band may be okay for very lazy days or basic shopping errands, but forget moving around alot or dealing with children. Not gonna happen. It didn't even come close to keeping my pants up.

    I haven't pulled it out yet, but with DS I found it worked as long as I wasn't at work. I worked at a bookstore and was constantly lifting, reaching, twisting and bending and it kept sliding around.

    I've never liked that thing. It always needed constant adjustment. I just hopped right into my maternity pants when my others got too tight this time around.

    I haven't had to get one yet, but I know when I do I'm going to hate it. I'm very particular about how my jeans fit, and if i don't have a belt on, they always manage to start sliding down...I have no bootie. Anyway, I just dont see how that is going to work for me. We'll see...

    I was still wearing mine from Olive I do the hairband(or rubberband) to hold pants together then bella band on top. Basically it hides my ass from hanging out while holding my pants somewhat up.

    I had that same problem yesterday and my sister said that once your belly starts getting bigger, the BeBand holds up better. I found that when I folded the top of the band over the bottom it was a lot more comfortable and didn't move around nearly as much!
