Bella Band (or similar); Any tips??
So, I am wearing my Bella Band thingy today-- it's actually the one from Mimi.
I have it folded over in two, since I don't have much belly-- but, I need it because if I attempted to zip and button my pants-- I'd be very uncofortable. I have mostly worn skirts and dresses and have not ventured into my closet for jeans and pants-- I did this AM and yeah, well-- some stuff just does not fit anymore.
I am so nervous that my zipper is going to come down, I feel it creep when I sit or get up... and I just keep fidgeting with it.
Anyone have any tricks of the trade to keep the thing in place, and for me to not be so self-conscious? I feel so conspicuous.
Oh yeah, and it's a total PITA to go the bathroom.

I didn't wear mine for very long, but when I did I wore it over the zipper, so if it went down, it wasn't visible.

did you always wear a long shirt with it?? I guess I didn't have it too low-- since my shirt doesn't cover the whole thing.

This is how I wore mine as well. I always wore a long shirt to cover the bella band.

Keep the shirts long and cover up the zipper with the band.

I am still wearing mine and it is tight enough where i dont really feel like it is going to fall.
i dont always wear long shirts with it, i think it kind of looks like the layered look, so i let it show.
I am hoping it will last another 3 weeks to get me to my 20 week mark!

I wear mine every day with my pants. Most of my shirts are long enough to cover it, the ones that don't like pp said, you kind of have the layered look going on.
And don't worry, once you cover the zipper with it, your pants will not open or fall down. Right now my pants barely zip up even a little and the bella band (I got mine from Mimi too) keep everything up and closed.
