5.0 out of 5 starsGreat for early pregnancy and useful to be able to wear pre-pregnancy clothes after bump appears

A very useful product, especially for early pregnancy and the first appearance of the bump. This belly band seems to uniquely have a silicone strip to grip to your trousers. Now that I am 21 weeks I don't find it comfortable enough for everyday wear, because having unzipped trousers plus a belly band leads to a lot of bulk around the hips, which makes my bump feel weird. However, this band saved me when I had to go to a formal work meeting as I could still wear my nice trousers, just with the band covering the unzipped top! Otherwise I would have had to try to get some formal pregnancy trousers, which seems like a waste for occasional use.
2.0 out of 5 starsBetter to just buy maternity pants

Prefer just wearing maternity jeans even from early on. Didn't feel like I could trust this to keep my trousers up and didn't find it overly comfy. Come in handy now to keep up my work maternity pants which are enormous when I'm not yet!
1.0 out of 5 starsOnly one bella band was sent in the 2 pack order

Extremely disappointed as only received one bella band in the 2 pk order. Ordered size 1 - previous pregnancy size was uk 8/10 - fits nicely. Just disappointed that only received one.
The quality of the product seemed good. I can't say whether it would stay up or roll if it fit properly. I used the size chart with my pre-pregnancy measurements and BOY WAS I WRONG. Size up one or two sizes. I usually don't like my clothes super tight, but this was so uncomfortable, I had to take it off within 10 minutes. I bought the size 1. My pre-pregnancy hips were 35" and waist 34". My current measurements are closer to hips 38" and waist 40". I normally wear a small or 8 and have smallish hips to waist ratio. I should have sized up to 2 or even 3. Good luck with your sizing!
