Belly Band or BeBand?
I know there are several different kinds of these on the market (Belly Band, Be Band, Bella Band!!). If you used one during your pregnancy, which one did you use and would you recommend it? I think I'm going to need one soon!!!
TIA

Re: Belly Band or BeBand?
I have the Be Bands from target and I like them. I did just see similar ones on Forever 21 for much cheaper, I paid $19 each in target and these ones at forever 21 are $5. I dont know if they are the same quality but for $5 I ordered 2 of them to see how they are.

Thanks for replying! Did you size up for the Be Bands? Do you find that they stay in place and are comfortable when you sit down? I read a whole bunch of reviews saying that they ride up

Re: Belly Band or BeBand?
I used the Bella Band for my last pregnancy, but it never stayed in place. For me, it was a waste of $ IMO.

Re: Belly Band or BeBand?
I loved my bella band. It got me through work for awhile. I even wore it last week with a pair of dress pants at 25 weeks. IMO they don't stay well with jeans, but it was amazing for my work pants.

Me too. I absolutely hated it. I ended up just buying maternity pants.

Heres a link..
Be Band
basically they are used when your reg. pants get a little too tight. You are able to leave your pants unbuttoned and this band keeps your pants in place while giving you that extra space to breathe.

They work fine for me but I know some people that dont like them, it might just depend on your shape. They do ride up a little but no more than when I wear a cami under my shirts so it didnt bother me. I would say get one and just keep the package and receipt that way if you dont like it then you didnt waste your money. They really helped get me through that faze when maternity pants would have been way to big on me. I am 20 wks and I still wear mine a couple days a wk.

Re: Belly Band or BeBand?
I got the BeBand at Target for about $16. It worked fine but it was never as comfortable as maternity pants. I would have just bought myself some maternity pants if I did it over
