Love it Very stretchy material grows with your belly. I use it to keep maternity pants up that are too big and pre pregnancy pants up that are too small and it works perfectly.
The Bella Band is a seamless knit band you wear at your waistline, over your unbuttoned pre-pregnancy pants, over slightly big maternity pants, or around the waistband of any maternity style that falls down around your hips. The Bella Band holds your pants up, disguising bulky unfastened closures or excessive fabric creating a smooth belly surface. Now, no one has to know your pants are undone or loose.Wear the Bella Band concealed, or let it peek out from under your top for that hip, layered look. If your top rises, it looks like a t-shirt or camisole -- not a funky mechanism to expand your waistband or hold up your pants.
An Absolute Must-have for Pregnant Women I will confess, I was absolutely skeptical about trying the Bella Band. I am a first time mom-to-be and have recently discovered that most pregnancy jeans/pants are really uncomfortable. Often times, the elastic band puts too much pressure on my belly...or, the elastic distorts my body shape, making me feel frumpy.
I bought the Bella Band, and much to my surprise, it is the best invention since sliced bread. I put the band on first, from mid-hip to just under my breasts. Then, I put my jeans/pants on. No need to zip or button, just pull the top half of the band over your pants and you are good to go for the rest of the day. Your pants stay in place and the band smoothes out lines from the button/zipper that can be seen throughyour shirt. What is nice is that the band supports your stomach, making you feel slimmer and more shapely, without cutting through your mid section like most pregnancy pants.
I cannot recommend this product enough. In fact, I just bought a second one in black. Even if you are wearing a shorter shirt, the band just looks like a tee-shirt underneath. Lastly, it is seamless, so it does not leave any undesirable imprints in your skin.
Initially, I thought $26 was a bit steep for this product, until I used it. It is worth every red cent.
Awesome! I bought this when I was about3 months pregnant, not knowing if I would actually use it much or if it would really work out. I have worn it almost every day, and am now 27 weeks pregnant. It saved me a ton of money because I didn't have to buy so many maternity pants! I work in an office and was able to continuing wearing my dress slacks thanks to the bellaband.
How to WearNewly pregnant:Ideal with pre-pregnancy jeans, pants, skirts and shorts that are unbuttoned and even unzipped a bit. Wear any pre-pregnancy favorite as long as your bum and hips allow. At this stage, we like the Bella Band folded over adding an extra layer to disguise bulky unfastened buttons and zippers. It also adds strength to hold up your pants. Great with transition wear that may fall down around your hips if you're still small but enjoy the comfort of an expanded waistline.Definitely pregnant:Great with so many maternity styles. The Bella Band conceals excess fabric, smooths out panels and elastic waistbands, and holds up any style that might feel a bit loose. Great with any transition wear that may be tightunbutton them to get a little more use! At this stage, the Bella Band works folded over or in a single layer... whatever feels good. It's also comfortable with drawstring pants that fall below the bellythe Bella Band holds them up!So very pregnant:Sometimes that belly pushs under-the-belly styles down around your hips. Use the Bella Band as an extra reinforcement over your maternity waistband. Try a single layer covering the belly and waistband if you want some support. Otherwise, double-layer over your under-the-belly waistband.Recovering Belly Babes:OK, so you can't leave the hospital in pre-pregnacy clothes (and if you can, we don't want to hear about it). Bring your Bella Band to the hospital. Wear with maternity that is too big and pre-pregnancy that can't fasten around your waist. You'll have more clothes to choose from, and feel better with it on. Nursing mom? There are fabulous new styles that allow you to nurse inconspicuously. For the days you don't have one of them on and need to lift from below, the Bella Band hides your recovering belly so you can feel better about how you look.
Yay for Bella Band! Lace Bella Band
I bought this produce for my sister, who is now about 6 months pregnant. She was not fitting into her pregnancy clothes, but her regular pants were too small. I found this product and she fell in love with it. She was able to wear her regular pants almost up to 6 months preggers. If you are looking for an alternative to pregnancy pants, this is the product for you.

The only way to keep your pants up! These are the best. Buy this three pack and you will be set for your pregnancy! They help you keep wearing your regular pants longer and then they also help you keep your maternity pants up when you're in the "in between" stages! I wore mine up until my 9th month because I didn't have a "stick out" belly that held the maternity jeans up! These helped keep me from "hiking" my pants up constantly! A MUST HAVE item - buy this and buy fewer expensive maternity clothes! These Bella Bands by Ingrid & Isabel are SUPERIOR to the "Belly Band" that Baby Be Mine makes! The "Belly Band" did not work at all for me - there was almost no elastic to it. It just sat in my drawer taking up space!
A pregnancy must. Wear this seamless knit band at your waistline, over your unbuttoned pre-pregnancy pants, over slightly big maternity pants, or around the waistband of any maternity style that falls down around your hips. Let it show under your top for a layered look or wear it hidden.
Amazing item! I love the bella band!! It works amazingly! I actually went back and bought a white one because I use my black one so much. I am 4 months pregnant and am at the point where my pre-pregnancy pants do not zip up. I put the bella band over (I double it up) the pants and they hold them up perfectly. No one even notices that I have it on. They think it is a part of my shirt. Yes, when you do stand up you need to adjust it, but just like you have to adjust your shirt. No big deal. This is the only maternity item that I have needed to buy so far. I hope to continue using it, as much as I can. Especially since maternity clothes is so expensive.

No need for maternity pants with this beauty!! Love it, love it. Thanks to the B Buckle, I'm still wearing my low-rise, stretch denim jeans everyday - and I'm 6 1/2 months pregnant! It's great. In the world of expanding belly, boobs, and butt it makes a huge difference to be able to keep wearing normal jeans. And, there are many snaps left for more expansion. I totally recommend this for pregnant ladies who want to keep wearing low-rise jeans/pants. The B Buckle is also way better than using a rubber band or ponytail holder b/c you can still zip your jeans if you want to, and the zipper won't fall down like it does if you're just using a ponytail holder on the button. I'll add an update in another month, but as for now I don't think I'll have to buy any maternity pants, thanks to this. --- Update - yes, I'm now 9 months pregnant and still wearing this with my normal jeans. I still love it. I do agree with the other reviewer that the Belly Band is great. BUT, the B-Buckle was more useful for me throughout pregnancy.

Not for Petite Women I bought this when I first started to show(2 1/2 months) and I couldn't even get the band to stay on - even the smallest size is way too big if you are pre-pregnancy size 0 or 2. I'm hoping I can use this farther along in my pregnancy, but for right now it's been a disappointment.
