Belly Products

Looking into purchasing:

Belly Band - where can I find one, and for those who have used, would you recommend? Can it be used to go over zipper front pants if you can't button your pants anymore? Chat Icon

Belly Cream -I saw someone recommended Burts Bees. Would anyone else like to recommend theirs? I'm not too dry or itchy yet, just trying to prevent that and stretch marks.

TIA!

Re: Belly Products

I bought mine on Amazon (Bella Band). I wore it a few times but in the end it was just annoying and I didn't find it to work all that well.

Re: Belly Products

I bought my belly bands from motherhood maternity in the mall, they have been so great and saved me from buying any dress pants for work. You put it right over your regular pants with the zipper open.

For the stretch marks, a friend bought me the Palmer's kit with the oil spray and the lotion, I don't love the smell of the lotion, the oil smells a lot better but that's used for itching, but so far at 24 weeks 3 days no stretch marks yet, but I still have some growing to do. I also use regular body lotion on my belly.

Re: Belly Products

I bought the bella band from Motherhood but I hated it. It was a real PITA because I have a big butt so I constantly had to adjust it. I wore it twice.

I used Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Tummy Butter every day from the middle of my pregnancy until the day I gave birth, and am completely stretch-mark-free. Chat Icon

I didn't use a band, but did start using Mama Bee's belly butter (burt's bees) in my 3rd trimester. It has a pleasant and mild scent and keeps my skin moisturized all day long. I'm only 1/2 way through my first tub.... and I've been using it for over a month.
