spinoff to maternity clothes...I need help!!
OK so my size 4 pants are getting tight so I went shopping last night with DH. I thought that I could get away with a bigger size in regular clothes...well, I was wrong! But here is the problem...I seem to be too big for regular clothes but not big enough for maternity...even a small. I was so upset...my jeans dont fit, my shorts dont fit, and my work pants will probably only last on me another week or so. I ended up buying a pair of maternity shorts at Old Navy...a little big but they are adjustable. Any suggestions where I can go and what I can do  Thanks girls!!

The bella band. Some people used it to wear over their regular clothes to make them last longer. I used it for a few weeks to hold up the maternity pants that were too big. Unfortunately....my maternity pants have been fitting me fine since about 16 weeks, so I don't need it anymore

I have been using my bella band to make my regular pants bigger and my maternity pants smaller. Frankly, I don't know what I would do without it during this time.

The GAP.com has starter maternity pants... I bought a few pairs. They are true to their size and they have a tiny bit of elastic on the sides to help with your growing belly. They were a little $$ but they can be worn Post pardum too....
Good luck.

The Bella Band is great. And I know that H&M stuff runs kind of small, so you should check them out. I believe some of their stuff runs in xsmall too.

I bought these in the beginning of my pregnancy and I am wearing them now, 2 weeks post pardum. Definitely worth the investment and so is the Bella Band!

Another vote for the Bella Band...I wore it until about 28 weeks, and want to know a secret...sometimes I still do if my regular belt looks too bunchy!
