Ok one lonely vote for the belly band

I wore it from week 8/9 to present (Week 18). My jeans were getting too tight to button at that time but I couldn't really justify buying maternity clothes yet. I got 10 weeks more wear from my jeans by using it.

It worked best for me when I tucked the top half inside my jeans, making it about half the height (iykwim). If I left it sitting up (as you are probably meant to) it was too loose and bunched and rode up.

Getting too uncomfortable to wear as I'm getting bigger so I bought jeanswest maternity jeans today. Too early to say if they are hit yet but they look nice on and are very comfy so far!
