Newly pregnant: Wear any pre-pregnancy favorite as long as your bum and hips allow. At this stage, we like the BellaBand folded over adding an extra layer to disguise bulky unfastened buttons and zippers.

Definitely pregnant: Great with so many maternity styles. The Bella Band conceals excess fabric, smooths out panels and elastic waistbands, and holds up any style that might feel a bit loose. Great with any transition wear that may be tight—unbutton them to get a little more use! At this stage, the Bella Band works folded over or in a single layer... whatever feels good.
 
So very pregnant: Sometimes that belly pushes under-the-belly styles down around your hips. Use the BellaBand as an extra reinforcement over your maternity waistband. Try a single layer covering the belly and waistband if you want some support. Otherwise, double-layer over your under-the-belly waistband.

Recovering Belly Babes: OK, so you can't leave the hospital in pre-pregnancy clothes (and if you can, we don't want to hear about it). Bring your BellaBand to the hospital. Wear with maternity that is too big and pre-pregnancy that can't fasten around your waist.
