Product Description
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.

5 out of 5 stars Great for all stages of pregnancy   September 1, 2008
These are convenient for wearing all of your pants and shorts for an extended period of time. Later on, I found that fewer of my pants could be held up with the Bella Band because my belly was just too big. However, the BB was great for covering the tiny bit of belly that started showing at the bottom of my shirts (even maternity ones) and it supported my growing belly making it more comfortable in the third trimester. It's the only thing now that makes my big belly feel better day and night (I used to say I felt like I needed a crane to hold up my belly -- well this is the crane!)

I am also looking forward to using this postpartum to support my belly and once again extend my wardrobe until I get closer to my pre-pregnancy size (average time 9 months, I hear).

Please note! The Bella Band comes in different sizes and you have to buy the right size. It should be able to hold up your pants when you're barely showing, but that same size will work all the way through the pregnancy.

This is a great idea for extending the wear of your pre-pregnancy clothes! :) I have loved it and I think it will work for quite a while, who wants a bunch of maternity clothes you will never wear again! This makes it so you don't need them as soon.


5 out of 5 stars Money well spent!   July 28, 2008
I purchased the bella band when I was about 15 weeks pregnant. I wish I had purchased it a little earlier, b/c it made wearing my pre-pregnancy pants so much more comfortable. I'm now around my 20th week and I have found it useful to wear w/my maternity pants. The pants are still a little loose and I find that the BB helps keep them up and gives me a more flattering silhouette. I sometimes wear it just for that reason and b/c I personally like the feeling of having my belly supported. I can only imagine that in the weeks to come I will find more benefit in having my expanding belly supported and if so I may buy another one in black for the fall/winter.


5 out of 5 stars Great product, worth the money   July 21, 2008
Because there were other cheaper options available I struggled with plunking the $25 ($30 w/shipping) down to buy this but am very glad I did. In the end I went with my gut that told me there's a reason why it's priced higher and I'd probably reap the benefits of that. I did. I bought a size larger than recommended based on other's reviews and have been able to use it since it came out of the box but know it will last me several months more into my pregnancy. So far I only need it for a pair of jean capris but if it were cooler I think I'd be using it a lot more. (Since it's summer all of my gauchos and skirts are still fitting me) I double mine over to hide the bumps from the button and zipper and since I wear my shirts and blouses longer you can't see a thing. I do have to pull it down often because of sitting at work and driving but it stays put more than I thought it would. It also looks just like a tank top underneath so no one's the wiser.


5 out of 5 stars An Absolute Must-have for Pregnant Women   July 19, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

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 through your 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.
