    I didn't like mine; to me it was much more comfortable to just wear maternity pants.  But I know a lot of people love theirs.

    Mine were fine in the beginning but they are uncomfortable now. I think if your pants almost fit and you're not wearing them for long it might work. If not, I don't think it would be worth it.

    I agree that maternity jeans are more comfortable, but I liked wearing the beel band when I wasn't quite ready for the maternity pants.  I wore it for about 2-3 weeks.

    It was OK, but I'd never use it again to wear pre-pregnancy pants.  They just are not comfortable even unbuttoned and it doesn't hold them up very well either.

    I use it now though to put over my belly to kind of smooth over the belly button for when I wear tighter fitting maternity tops.  I love it for that.

    I was so excited to get one, but I tried it on and was like...eh, no. So I've gotten two pairs of maternity pants and am bouncing between their "comfyness" and my normal pants.

    Also, JillB you are the cutest pregnant lady, and I'm insanely jealous of your fireplace ... Smile

    I have two pairs of jeans I still wear with it, but only because they button but slide down my thighs, so it is more like a belt.  I did not like it with my regular jeans unbuttoned.

    I absolutely love the bella band. I don't wear my pre-pregnancy pants very often with it, but it is great to keep up maternity pants!

    I love mine. I use them on a daily basis- especially because I am in the "in-between" stage. Too little to keep up maternity pants and too big for my regular pants to close. So I use my bands for regular pants and to keep my maternity pants up.
