BellaBands...

I know it's been asked, but is it worth it and what stores do they sell them at? I'm about 13 weeks pregnant and my jeans are just starting to get tight. I'm not ready for maternity pants yet so wanted everyone's opinions.

I also heard Nordstrom sells it. I was at Kohls and Target and didn't see it at either store.

Re: BellaBands...

I like it - I got it at a maternity store, I' don't remember which one ........

I am 18w and haven't needed it yet, my pants still fit fine. But if we go to dinner or something and I don't want my jeans to be so tight at 11PM, I'll wear it Chat Icon Chat Icon

I have hips and an a$$ and it's fine on me. I'm hoping it will get me through until Christmas so I don't have to buy maternity pants for awhile !!

I got mine at Destination Maternity. They call it a Tummy Tube. It's the same thing.

Re: BellaBands...

I had it for a week and hated it. It was a waste. It was uncomfy and rolled up and my jeans still felt tight. I caved and just bought the maternity pants and have dealt with the fact that they are a little baggy but they are comfy at least.

Re: BellaBands...

I got mine at Mimi Maternity at about 12 Weeks. I used it for a few weeks so I could still wear my jeans. It was kind of uncomfortable and I was constantly pulling it down since it would ride up a lot. I wasn't ready for Maternity jeans, so I had no choice. Once I was big enough for Maternity jeans, I didn't use the Bella band anymore.

i got mine at babycenter.com and used it often. I bought it at 12 weeks and I am still using it at 19 weeks. I did buy a pair of maternity jeans just to be more comfy, but I use the bella band for my dress pants.
