Apparel reviews of Baby Be Mine Maternity Belly Band in 4 SizesCustomer Review: Not a bad product, but definately lacks Rating: 3 Stars
I purchased two of these at the very beginning of my pregnancy, one in white, and one in black. I'm now about 18 weeks along, and while they've been very useful for covering up my un-buttoned pants, I don't really recommend them for just that purpose. They aren't as thick or elastic as I'd like, and I end up adjusting it many times during the day.
You should also be aware that the band goes all the way up over your chest without much elastic at the top to keep it in place. For bustier girls like me, it's very hard to keep the band in one place, especially since I find myself constantly tugging on it to keep it down over my unbuttoned pants. I've actually resorted to folding it down over my midsection for a little extra support and so it doesn't move around as much.
Overall, this has been a very helpful product because I haven't had to buy any maternity clothes yet. I plan on wearing this all the way through my pregnancy for a little extra support and modesty. I wouldn't discourage anyone from getting it, but you should be aware of its limitations.
Customer Review: Good..but not great Rating: 3 Stars
Being plus size and pregnant, I was happy to find this in my size. I had visions of being able to wear my jeans unbuttoned and unzipped for awhile longer like I've read that these things are capable of doing. THANK GOD I did not use this today for that purpose. First, this does not conceal undone jeans! No way, no how you can see the imprint through your shirt. I did wear my maternity panel jeans today with this and it does smooth out that panel crease nicely. However, by the time I got to work, the band had creeped up around my upper waist. Annoying, but not a huge deal. Fixed it in the bathroom and so far, so good. I bought one in black and one in white in size 4. They are a bit too loose so I'm thinking I should have gotten a size 3 even though the chart said I should be a size 4. They are also a little longer than necessary. Kind of uncomfortable with it all the way under my bra....
Customer Review: Somewhat lives up to expectations Rating: 3 Stars
My husband and I are expecting our 2nd child and are being as cautious as possible in every penny we spend on this pregnancy. I am a large woman (size 24) and purchased a muplti pack of 3 bands in size 4. I do wish I had spent the extra money on the actual "Bella Band". On the packaging it states that the Baby Be Mine bands are not to be expected to hold pants, etc. up. That was something that I needed the bands for. If this information had been available on the product description, I would have not purchased them.
The bands do make me feel more secure than when I do not wear them. They do thankfully help to make up for the gap between shirt and pants when being active. Lastly, these bands are not that bad, they just did not meet my full expectations.
Customer Review: Not super stretchy...didn't fit very well. Rating: 3 Stars
I purchased this in a size 2 (my pre-pregnancy size is an 8) and It seemed too big.
The problem is that it isn't super stretchy like the similar item that I purchased at Target for a lot less money. It is very wide, so that part was good, but it didn't serve to really hold anything up because of the lack of elasticity.
The belly band was still better than not having anything, but it was the last one that I reached for.
Customer Review: Sizing seems off Rating: 3 Stars
I ordered 2 to assist me in being able to use my pre-pregnancy clothes longer and my maternity clothes while they are still a little big. According to their sizing I should get a size 2 (I was an 8-10 prepregnancy). However, the size 2 is so loose that it isn't snug enough to allow me to wear my pants unbuttoned or to hold my maternity pants tighter. I am very disappointed!
