What weeks did you wear a bella band vs maternity clothes?
I just bought my first bella band. I'm almost 10 weeks along. I'm curious how long these bands will last me before I have to buy maternity clothes.

I bought the Bella Band but never used it. I instead just made the switch to maternity pants around my 12th week and it was WONDERFUL!!!!

Re: What weeks did you wear a bella band vs maternity clothes?
I started wearing bella bands with suits and some tighter fitting pants around 9 or 10 weeks. I started wearing maternity pants around 14 or 15 weeks. I still wore the bella band, but maternity pants are so much more comfortable, especially the Secret Fit Belly pants.

Re: What weeks did you wear a bella band vs maternity clothes?
I'm carrying small, so I still use the bella band to hold up my maternity pants...I used it my whole pregnancy with my first to keep my pants up (they always fell down on me) and so people wouldn't see the stretch material at the top of the pants. I am almost 27 weeks now and will start to wear maternity clothes next week when i go back to work since nothing dressy fits me right anymore!

I'm 27 weeks and have been using the bella band since around 16 weeks. I haven't had to buy any maternity pants for work since I have the bella bands and I'm thinking they will last me until the end. I've only had to invest in materntiy tops

I wore it till the end. I used it with maternity pants and regular shirts that would creep up as the belly grew. GREAT investment IMO!

I was all bella band until about 14 weeks and then it was both bella and mat pants until about 18 when I fully made the switch.

Re: What weeks did you wear a bella band vs maternity clothes?
I borrowed my friend's bella band just to see if I liked it and because of my "apple bottom" it rolled all the time. I really didn't like it.
I wear my maternity jeans if I am wearing jeans but otherwise, I just wear my normal pants My jeans just got too tight and uncomfortable!

Re: What weeks did you wear a bella band vs maternity clothes?
I just bought a bella band at 12 weeks. I'm thinking of buying maternity jeans, only because the band is kind of annoying.

Re: What weeks did you wear a bella band vs maternity clothes?
I just have to say...I am so happy people are saying how early they are wearing bella bands! I've been sticking to sweats all summer but am scared to go back to work cuz I thought I was gaining weight too quickly. Phew!
