Bellybra Maternity Support Tank

Bellybra Maternity Support Tank
Price: $29.95 - $36.00

Product Description

A feminine maternity support top...a maternity belt with class that is perfect for that uncomfortable third trimester run. The BellyBra maternity belt has come a long way. Invented to be used for exercise, the product has graduated into a an every day support undergarment. With the lightweight, attractive fabrics, the BellyBra has become even more. The low cut neck and attractive trim allow the garment to be worn exposed, as a "camisole" under jackets or sweaters. Many women have commented on the "snug and safe" feeling the BellyBra maternity belt provides along with the gentle support to the back and abdomen. With no bottom snaps or Velcro, the frequent trips to the "loo" are easy and struggle free! The Secret is in the Back Panel! It stretches in one direction, up and down. While doing so it gently pulls the shoulders back and equally distributes weight between the shoulders. The non-constrictive, two-inch bellyband lifts weight off the pelvis, distributing weight equally between the shoulders. Could that get any better?!!! Makes sense that this helps to relieve back pressure and back pain! Why be exposed to velcro, snaps and hooks? Most maternity belts include these things that can snag your clothing. With the correct size, the BellyBra maternity belt will relieve the simple back pains brought on by pregnancy. Think of us as a "maternity belt" with class!! This full torso support is a simple solution to an uncomfortable problem. Women carrying multiples think the bellybra was sent from Heaven! Need Help with Sizing? When choosing the correct size Bellybra, please choose according to bra size but also keep in mind the size maternity tops you are wearing also. If you are small busted but are wearing Large tops, go with the Large Bellybra. The bra part of the Bellybra is secondary to the product. It is a BRA for the BELLY, to lift the weight off the pelvis. If you are in the middle of the size chart, or are unsure which way to go, always go with the larger size.

I'm in my 3rd trimester with twins and I like this support garment. Anyone who has carried 2 babies knows that its definitely a strain on your back. This is surprisingly supportive and its much better under clothes than a regular maternity support belt because its smooth and doesn't show at all even under flimsy summer dresses.
I'm glad I got it a little larger than usual because I'm carrying twins.
The only con is that it can be a little hot because the shiny fabric doesn't breathe.
This belly bra gives great support for the tummy and is very comfortable. However, if you have wide scoop neck or v neck tops, beware because the neckline is narrow, and the belly bra will show inside your top's neckline. Good product for wintertime esp when you are wearing turtlenecks etc.
Tried this on right away after recieving, was so excited. I'm a very active mom-to-be and was looking for extra support expecially during workouts. At 29 weeks and having gained 25 lbs already, I found that the small was a little too small, but the medium too big- the small was hard to get on and off because it was tight at the top especially, but once on was generally comfortable. Product irritated the underarms at the seams when active. Belly portion fit well and was confortable, but the band at the bottom did irritate my skin a bit, and felt "tight" because it was somehwat narrow elastic (2"). Very see-through garmet. Nowhere near sufficient as a sportsbra, even for small chest size. Does provide significant warmth as a base layer, so with addition of sportsbra and t-shirt, got overheated easily.
Overall, plan to return, as there seem to be better products out there that are wider at the bottom, and not integrated as a shirt/bra as well.

This is exactly what I was looking for! I have an embarrassingly saggy belly from my last pregnancy and myncurrent pregnancy belly was looking and feeling awkward and just fat. This band helped shape my belly and lift it up as well as help alleviate pain from a growing belly. I started wearing this at 17.5 weeks and I feel like I may have ordered a size too large because I didn't measure my belly, but I guess I will have lots of room to grow. It is way more comfortable than all of the maternity support bands I tried on in the stores.
I bought this support band to help with the "extra" belly under my baby bump as well as for support for my back and ever growing belly. All of the other bands I have looked at just didn't have enough coverage to hold up all my belly and not cut into my back. I bought the XL, and I do wish I had gotten the L because I think it could be tighter. It is still very supportive though. If I had gotten a smaller size, it might be more beneficial for my c-section post partum support. It may still work though, we'll see.
Very fast delivery. Now I used it only for few days, but It looks a very good support belt, especially for my back. It will probably work trough the whole pregnancy, since you can adjust the strap.
I didn't give five stars because it's a little bit bigger than expected. I checked the size-info panel, and got the one corresponding my measurement, but it's not as fitted than I tough. Still, it's a good support belt, nothing compared to the bellaband.

exactly what I wanted. I ordered this in black (XL) and white (XL) and love them!! they are nice and long, and made well. They are a tiny bit bigger than I expected them to be (still fit well just not as snug as I was thinking they'd be) but they also haven't been washed yet so that may fix the problem. Otherwise I'll just buy more in Large for my 'snug' undershirts and use these as relaxing tank tops. Either way I'll be buying more in other colors!

I absolutely love this sleep bra. I am a size 40F and it is the only bra that I find comfortable enough for sleeping. I also wear it around the house exclusively. It is super easy for nursing; one hand is all you need to open and close (no snaps, just moving the material). I have four of these bras, as they are all I wear at home. I highly recommend them. My daughter is four months old, and they have held up great so far after many washings.
Comfortable bra but after a few washes the bottom elastic is curling and hiking up.
I have 4 of these bras and I love all of them! They are so soft and comfortable you hardly know you have a bra on. It is great for late night nursing sessions, plus it looks nice and I don't feel frumpy it in. The elastic is strong, and after 10 months they all still fit and look like new. Size wise it is based on your band size, not your cup size. I wear a 32D/DD bra, and I wear a small in this bra and it fits great...all the time.

Easy to wear, draping sweater. A little itchy, so you'll probably want to wear something under it (which should be fine since it's also a little thin). Will look best with leggings since it is not fitted at all. I ordered a size small (my pre-pregnancy size), and it fits great.

My OB recommended a support to help with my inguinal hernia pain. I was was working full time and on my feet 8 hours a day all the way until delivery and this support saved me! It was excruciating to work without this support. The best part is it pulls up over the belly so you are not tugging at it to keep it up but you don't have the over the shoulder straps like some supports. I started wearing it at 6 months and the same one fit all the way through delivery because of the adjustable straps. It washes nicely in the washer, no need to hand wash. Don't dry it because it'll be a little tight the next few times you wear it. Very comfortable to wear- well worth the money!
My pre-pregnancy size is 6-8. I ordered size Medium of this belt, it was very very tight on my thighs. I returned it. I would go for only a belt not that style of short/underpant with belt cuz this one is a bit bulky and a problem when u use the bathroom more frequently specially at the last trimester.
I don't know what the designer was thinking, but they need to go back to the drawing board. I am almost always an extra small in all garments, but I figured I would be safe because of the extra pregnancy weight and ordered a size medium. I couldnt even get it past my hips, the opening was so small (and not very elastic). On top of that, the material was not very soft. I would look elsewhere.

I'm pregnant with twins and have been getting a lot of back pain and abdominal strain which I know will just keep getting more pronounced as I get bigger so I have been looking for a support garment. I borrowed one of the single-strap type supports you can get at Motherhood and I found that to be really uncomfortable - it was uncomfortable while I was sitting down, it didn't stay in place very well and rather than help with the pressure on my bladder, it made it feel worse. Clearly I needed something better.

I ordered this prenatal cradle and had a lot of relief immediately. It has seriously improved my lower and upper back pain and abdominal strain. I find it easier to lift and carry things and just getting up off the couch is easier.
The "adjustablility" of this model was one of the reasons I bought it and I have to say, its nothing to write home about (3 sets of hooks that are pretty widely spaced) but better than nothing. The company says this will fit 150 - 220 lbs. I am 156 lbs and found I have to wear it on the middle set of hooks to avoid uncomfortable compression but maybe thats just how I'm carrying.
All in all, I would say if you are getting big and don't have super-strong core muscles, this support can really help improve your pregnancy experience. I wish I hadn't waited to buy this - get it before you HAVE to have it and save yourself some pain.

This is not a cure-all, but it definitely helps. I am 7 mos. pregnant with twins and I am carrying 40 extra lbs - all in the belly. I am still doing a lot of walking, and the cradle definitely helps. It does not completely eliminate back pain. But on the days I am on my feet all day, I feel much better if I wear the prenatal cradle. I also get very sore from sitting in front of my computer, and the cradle actually helps a bit with that too.

The downside is that the straps are actually visible with almost everything I wear - except tops or sweaters with a crew neck. Anything with a v-neck or a boat neck leaves the straps exposed. Even a tank top does not cover the straps, as they are designed to criss-cross at the center of the chest. But it's a small price to pay for pain management.

By the way, based on other reviews I read, I bought a size up (eg, I bought a medium even though the size-chart indicated I would be a small) and it fits fine.
My OBGYN recommended this support for me, not for back pain, but for some relief from vericrose veins and varicrosities that have plagued me this pregnancy. She had the same issue with her own last pregnancy and used this support so it was a personal recommendation.

Based on reviews here, I ordered up a size from the sizing chart, which was the way to go. I'm 30 weeks and currently weigh about 160, and the medium was definitely the correct size for me.

First, this device is VERY comfortable. I could wear it to bed! I was worried it would bother my skin in the hot weather but it is comfortable. More importantly, it really, really has helped my discomfort from the vericrose veins.

The only reasons I gave it 4 and not 5 stars are:
1) It is impossible to wear under many tops, due to the positioning of the upper straps.
2) It could be more adjustable at the belly - it has three sets of hook fasteners (like a bra) but they're SO far apart, so it can be hard to get the correct level of tightness depending on your size. Velcro or more rows of hooks would have been more useful.

I might never have tried a product like this if my doctor hadn't suggested it, but now I'm telling every pregnant woman I know about it.

I spent a couple of hours researching these support belts after both my chiropractor and midwife recommended I get one. I settled on this one thinking the price was low risk and have been very happy with it. I have had it for almost a month now and my only complaint is that it is difficult to sit in. It really does ease my back pain, the price was unbeatable, and it arrived in a jiffy. I highly recommend.
I am 29 wks pregnant with my second child and have been experiencing a lot of back pain when I have to stay on my feet a lot. I've worn this brace on days when I know I'm going to be standing/walking a lot and it does help. It helps to support the heaviness I feel in my stomach and eases my back. I haven't used the strap that goes on top of the belly so the brace can be used without it. The only down side is using the bathroom! Would be more convenient if it was only one strap. Also, recommend wearing some type of camisole so the belt doesn't aggravate your skin.
My wife is 5'4 and typically 110-120lbs (don't tell her I posted this)this is our first and she has been carrying low. We walk for at least an hour a day and she is on her feet for several hours at a time for work. At around 30 weeks she started complaining of the "bouncing feeling" and "sore sides" (ligament pain)so I started researching support braces for her. She didn't think they would help, but I figured they wouldn't exist if they didn't help. I read several reviews and had a couple models in my cart weighing the "pros and cons" I selected this model because of price, reviews and the picture most resembled her figure.

Once we recieved the brace it took us a while to figure out how she was supposed to wear it. The curved part is the bottom by the way. The distance around her waist was measured about 2 inches below her belly button and this was accurate, and it fit well with plenty of room. However we do not use the strap over the top because 1.) it is way too long and 2.) the brace holds it position fine on it's own. She wears a tank top underneath it to prevnent irritation, with a loose shirt on it is hardly noticable. We started on our walk and she said it helped quite a bit. When standing at work for long periods of time she will put it on under her professional attire and it helps tremendously. She also recommends Ted hose[...] to reduce swelling.

I highly recommend this product to any guy who wants to help ease his loved one's burden or any mommy to be looking for some relief. :)

At 22 weeks pregnant, I developed pain in my right hip and leg. The pain became worse as the weeks went by, and by 26 weeks, I almost couldn't walk normal anymore. After talking to my ob/gyn, she suggested I try a maternity support belt to relieve the pressure on my sciatic nerve. I read a number of reviews on Amazon, and finally decided to order two different belts, based on the good reviews each one received. While I was waiting for my belts to arrive from Amazon, I also went to Babies R Us and bought one there. Here are my reviews for each belt:

One of my choices from Amazon was the "Soft Form Maternity Support" belt ($ 33.99). As soon as it arrived, I took it out of the package and was a little turned off. The belt's color is a really dark brown, which I wasn't too thrilled with. When I tried it on, I noticed how thick the material is, which adds bulk underneath clothing. First, I put on the abdominal support pad, which really cradles your belly. Felt kind of nice. Then, I attached the belt and the upper tummy strap. I didn't like either one of these. The belt is split lengthwise into two panels across the back, which makes adjustments a little annoying, and it was rolling (or folding) down on top. The Velcro taps on the belt are wider than the abdominal pad, leaving parts of the Velcro sticking out either on top, where it scratches your stomach, or on the bottom, where it scratches your legs. The tummy strap is thick and scratchy. No matter how I adjusted it, I couldn't get comfortable in this thing. I hope I can return it for a refund.

My second choice from Amazon was the "Mother-to-be Maternity Support" belt ($ 31.98). As soon as it arrived, I tried it on and loved it. The abdominal support pad is soft and comfortable. The belt is made from strong material and really hugs your back, which feels great and supportive. The belt doesn't roll down or fold over and really keeps it shape. The Velcro taps fit perfectly on the abdominal pad and are flat against the belly. Even though it is a strong belt, it also feels soft and stretches with your movements. The tummy strap is a little thick, but still feels comfortable. Initially, the top and bottom edge of the belt are a little scratchy, but I imagine I can get used to that. It's a minor price to pay to be pain free once again. The edges might still soften up a little, as the belt gets broken in with repeated wear and washings. Also, the belt hugs the body so well, it doesn't show underneath my maternity clothes. The only negative thing I can see with this belt is the fact that the back panel doesn't have the little breathe strips like other belts. This might cause extra sweating during the summer, but I would still take the sweat over the pain.

At Babies R Us, I bought the "Especially for Mom Maternity Support" belt ($ 32.69). The nice thing about buying it at a store was that I was able to try it on before I bought it. Once I brought it home, I put it on right away. Everything about this belt is great. The materials are soft and comfortable. I'm wearing it on my bare skin for most of the day, and it doesn't irritate or scratch at all. It fits great, and the support is excellent for a soft, light-weight belt like this. The pain in my right hip and leg pretty much disappeared after wearing it for a short time. The belt has little breathe strips built in, so it is really easy to wear even in the summer. It keeps its shape without rolling or folding down. The belt fits very well and doesn't show underneath clothing. Overall, this is my favorite of the three belts. If you can get this at a store near you, I'd say buy it. If not, get the "Mother-to-be Maternity Support" belt from Amazon.
This product is just as described. I am 7 months pregnant, and I have been suffering for about 3 months of back pain, plus my hips are too loose and hurt, my belly was hurting quite a bit too, trying to carry the weight of my baby and there wasn't must I could do. I couldn't walk for more than a few blocks....(less than 10 at a time, and ten was a lot... just in a good day)

I've been wearing that belt for a week and a half, and most of the pain is gone. My back and hips feel a LOT better (not completely painless, but that's pregnancy...) and my belly doesn't hurt! I just went for a 3 miles walk (ok, it was a bit much, but 2 miles felt fine). And that's the longest (by far) that I have been able to walk since I was about 3-4 months pregnant!

I recommand this product to any woman who suffers like it did. I am so happy with it, and wish I had bought it sooner...
I purchased this particular belt because of the reviews, plus my local Babies-R-Us didn't have a size small support belt in stock.

This belt has turned out to be one of the few lifesavers for my pregnancy -- my sciatica was horrid from month five on, really, and this was the ONLY thing that relieved it. It comes with easy-to-read and understand instructions with pictures and a nice disclaimer about how it doesn't constrict bloodflow, etc. (And it doesn't.)

I have yet to wear the upper strap part (it would slide down a little when I was smaller and I've just grown used to not wearing it), though some women might find it useful. I saved mine just in case but have yet to wear it.

The only downside I can see (and it's not really much of one, IMO) is you might have to buy some really long, thin tank tops or long john style shirts to wear under the belt, as it could irritate your skin otherwise. But given that I've had a winter pregnancy and the long tanks were readily available from several stores, this proved no problem for me at all.

This belt is on my list of must-have things anyone I know who's pregnant and having back or sciatica issues. I highly recommend it!

Works great for both belly support and back support. I mostly wear mine if I have to stand or walk for a long time. I was a pre-pregnancy pant size 22-24, but this size (XX-Large) would easily adjust down to a size 18 or up to about a size 30 pant. I love that it is adjustable in size as well as support, and there is nothing to try and shimmy over your head or up your legs to put on. Just velcro it on then adjust the support straps.
I'm overweight and 6 months pregnant and for the past month I've had horrible pelvic pain. This support really helps! While the pain isn't gone, it's certainly improved. For a while it even hurt to walk, because I could feel my hips popping in their sockets. While my hips still feel "loose", I no longer feel them popping. I'm very impressed at how much better I feel.

The downside is that it's not comfortable to sleep in this product, and I've had to wear a camisole underneath it because I find it to be a little itchy. But I'm still giving it 5 stars because it has helped so much with the pain I was feeling.
I started wearing this belt after a short bout with sciatica. I am a nurse who works 12 hour shifts on the floor and I felt like I needed extra "support." This is my second child, and I'm carrying him low, which was really straining on my back, I was also having back pain when trying to sleep at night. I wear the belt to work, and any time I will be out of the house and walking for more than 30 minutes. I have noticed a huge improvement back pain, am able to sleep better and I do NOT ever have to wear it to bed. Don't be threatened by it's size, it smooths easily under clothes. Even if it feels bulky @ first, you get used to it rather quickly. Well worth the investment!

I am now 5 weeks out from my due date and i am having alot of back and hip pain- more than with my first pregnancy. I wanted something that would help out with the back pain and support my belly as it continues to grow. I had several picked out on amazon but decided to go with this one. I am glad i did. It arrived earlier than expected so i was pleased with that. I opened it up right away and put it on since i was going to be doing alot of walking. It works great! since i have started wearing it my back and hip pain have decreased alot! I work 10 hours a day still and have a toddler as well so this is a huge help since i dont have time to be in pain. I can also use it after i deliver as well which is a plus since i wasnt aware of that when i bought it. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it bunches in the back when i wear it. Its kind of annoying to have to fix it. It also doesnt breathe very well and I am sweaty where the band was when i take it off at the end of the day. It is also a little bit bigger than i thought. I ordered a small/med bc i wear a size 8 and i feel that, although it works, i could use a bit more compression. It is also a nude color with lace detail vs. the black one in the picture. Overall i am glad that i bought this and would recommend it to others.
I bought this support at Babies R Us and it's pretty good. I read the other reviews and after looking at all the maternity supports that are out there, I'm not sure what people's expectations are. It's not a miracle worker, I don't know how you can expect for it to completely alleviate the weight of your belly. I personally thought that for a product that claims to only "provide gentle abdominal support" and help to "ease" back pain, it does exactly what it says. No, it will not make you feel like you aren't pregnant anymore. No, it will not take away ALL of the ligament discomfort. But it does what it says... provides support and HELPS make you more comfortable. For the price, I think it's completely worth it. It does have velcrow that you need to line up, which I don't think is rocket science. Yes, the velcrow has some serious cling to it, and it can scratch you, but when you line it up right, it has a great grip and you don't have to worry about it coming off. If you don't buy the right size, such as if you buy one too small, the velcrow might not be completely covered when you close it and it will scratch you. Simple solution.... go to the store, try it on, and buy the right size.

I like to cinch mine tight , even though it creates a slight (very, very slight) muffin-top effect in the middle of my belly. I don't mind, because it's more comfortable to me. I don't wear it directly on my skin, I wear a camisole under it and then my shirt over it. I feel like it might not be that discreet, but my friends said that they didn't even notice until I said something. Again, for the price of comfort in my third trimester, this is acceptable to me. My advice-- spend $25 bucks and buy it to "help" make you more comfortable.

UPDATE: The more I wear this support, the more I like it. I think that it has significantly contributed to not having as many stretch marks as I did with my first pregnancy too, because it's keeping my belly from hanging out all over the place. I feel more itching from stretching skin when I don't wear it.
I purchased this and the It's You Babe Mini Cradle (which I am returning) at the same time, making for a good comparison. I'm 31 weeks pregnant now, and have had a few weeks of pain in my thighs and hips. The Boppy Maternity Support Band took a little adjusting at first, but is very comfortable and supportive. In less than 30 minutes I began to feel a difference, and have noticed that it is easier to get up from a seated position, and have felt less pain overall. The fabric is smooth and the velcro is strong.

I also like that it may be useful post-pregnancy, as inverting the band makes it a support for a (hopefully) shrinking post-baby belly!

My wife is pregnant with twins and even @ 24 weeks she has reached the point that walking around or standing for more than a few minutes causes her discomfort as the twins' and gravity conspire to make her back sore. The beautiful thing about this belt is that it is *infinitely and conveniently adjustable*, which is very important. The product is comprised of three components, each which attach to each other by Velcro (when you first see it, looks complicated, but once you've put all the pieces together its pretty intuitive).

The value of the belt is that it gently supports her tummy, reducing the impact of the twins pulling down (e.g., on each step when shes walking) and re-distributing the weight of her twins in part across her spine. Very importantly, once she is wearing the belt (and assuming she is only wearing loose clothing over it, which I recommend) she can reach down by herself and adjust the straps because -- just like a back pack -- the degree of support you need changes over time and based on your activity level. More firm when active, less when not, and so on.

IMO you need to be realistic -- no product will "magically" eliminate all the discomfort of carrying around your baby(s). The point is to get some relief, and on that basis my wife and I are thoroughly pleased with this product for its overall high quality, relative ease to wear, and -- importantly -- convenient adjust-ability.

APRIL 2010 UPDATE: My wife delivered our twins a week ago and its worth noting that she continued to rely heavily on this maternity belt until delivery. In the last 6 weeks she was unable to walk even short distances (e.g., even around the house) without wearing the belt to give her some support. We used it extensively before, and surprising even in the last week as her uterus has been shrinking back down, to provide support. The belt is a terrific product, well made, that had a high-impact on her quality of life for the last 1/2 of her pregnancy. Not often that a simple product can have such a dramatic impact, but this was certainly the case here.

I'm 4.5 mos into my pregnancy and my belly weight was starting to give me extreme back pain. I decided to try this based on reviews and here's what I've found:

PROS:
*actually 'lifts' your belly to take off some of the weight burden from your back
*the medium size has alot of leeway whether you're smaller or bigger. Pre pregnancy, I'm a size 4. I wasn't sure which one to order but the M worked out great.
*cost seems pretty on par with what you would pay at Motherhood or Babies R Us

CONS:
*it says it's smooth enough not to see under your clothes but the two velcro sides that attach in front don't lay completely flat so you can see a little bump. it's not a huge deal.
*not sure what the top piece is for but it was too big so I'm not using it right now. It seems to work fine without it.
*It does get a little warm and uncomfortable after wearing it for a while

Overall, I think if you have backpain from the extra bump weight... spend the $30. It will be well worth it.
I'm 30 weeks pregnant and purchased this product at about 24 weeks, when the ligament pain was keeping me from doing simple household tasks. This product makes all the difference in the world. Especially first thing in the morning when you're trying to get around the house or in the evenings after a long day. I wouldn't recommend wearing this all day, especially if you work an office job where you sit all day. But do keep it on hand. If you're feeling pain or discomfort in the lower abdomen, put this on and "ah!" pain free. If you're going to be standing or walking for any extended period of time like going shopping or to a party, wear it as it will keep you from feeling crummy later. You could leave the house feeling just fine and then return feeling like you're gonna die, wishing you had worn this. As I get later into my pregnancy, I'm finding that it works for lower back pain as well. There is another girl in my office who has the exact same one and she likes it as well.

I deducted one star because of its appearance. Yes, I understand it is a clinical product, but man is it ugly and bulky, especially when trying to wear under work clothes. Whenever I wear this, people comment on how much bigger I look or that I seem to be carrying the baby high. Black may have worked better, but I couldn't find it available in black. The velcro also tends to scratch a little unless you're wearing some kind of light undershirt or cami under it or wear it over the "over the belly" part of your maternity jeans. It's super bulky with under the belly jeans. I tried to get by with only using this at home, but I'm finding that I need it more and more so I just had to get more creative with layering.
Bottom line is, it works.

I use this item when I have to stand for long periods of time, or when I go for a walk. It relieves the pressure on my bladder and abdoman, but my no means prevents it altogether.
I'm 24 weeks along (didn't really start showing until 4 weeks ago) and have been wearing this belt for 5 days. I wish I would have bought it sooner. Before wearing the belt, I could only sit for about 30 minutes at a time because my lower back would get very sore (I'm at a desk all day). Since wearing the belt, I hardly notice any back pain at all (less than before getting pregnant, even). It also really has helped with the pressure on my bladder. Before wearing the belt, I would visit the ladies room 6-8 times throughout my 10 hour work day. With the belt, I'm at only 4 times a day! I haven't had any problems with the fabric bunching even after spending a few hours walking (except when I didn't make sure my pants were pulled up over the bottom of the band).
This will really help with the next four months!
The pros: doesn't show through clothes, velcro is strong and doesn't wear out in washer, machine washable, provides some minor lift for your belly

The cons: Rolls up on the sides, creates ugly pressure marks on your sensitive belly skin, provides no back support, doesn't breathe and makes you sweat, wrinkles and stretches out to diminish support even further

Bottom line, I used this with my second pregnancy and it was the worst one I've had. I've tried others that were great, I don't know where Medela went wrong with this product. It worked better when my belly was less than 40 inches around (which is tiny), after that, it was useless.

This garment did provide some light support. And it was great for short periods of time and under more form-fitting clothing, but for longer periods of time, meaning 4+ hours, I needed something with more support. If you are in your sixth month of pregnancy, I would skip this item and go ahead and buy something that provides greater support now, instead of wasting money on two separate garments throughout your pregnancy.
This belly band is great for all day light to medium support. I was looking for a support band that I could wear under business formal attire during the week, and this works perfectly. It is very soft, stays in place, and relieves the pressure on my lower back and pelvis. I began wearing this close to 8 months along, and like it so much, that I bought a second one. It works for a petite frame.

In comparison, I also purchased a Gabrialla maternity Support Belt Gabrialla Maternity Support Belt - (Medium Support). The Gabrialla belt was not soft or comfortable to wear, sitting at a desk during the day. It was also often visible beneath clothing, especially business formal attire made of nicer fabrics. The Gabrialla belt, however, does provide better support during exercise, so I tend to switch from the Amon band to the Gabrialla belt if I am going to be exercising or walking for long periods of time.

Overall, this is a great band for all day wear for someone who works at a desk, but is active at points throughout the day.
Wish I'd had one of these for my other pregnancies! It helps take the pressure off of my stomach muscles and supports my back, so that when I exercise - which is mostly just a fast walk for me - my belly & back aren't killing me. I am short, (barely 5'2") and the baby has nowhere to go but out, so my belly always sticks WAY out when I am pregnant. I am now nearly 7 mo. along, and if I ever forget to put the Belly Band Pro on when I start walking, I notice almost immediately, and I go back and put it on!

This is a cute maternity nursing night gown that is not too frilly or boring looking. I prefer to sleep in clothes that cover my shoulders so the nursing gown options were limited. Only complaint I have is that the sizing is too small. I am in my 9th month of pregnancy and was a size 6 before I got pregnant. (I have gained about 30 lbs since I got pregnant.) I am small busted and my chest has only grown to 36 inches. I got a medium (despite their recommended size of small for my dimensions) and it is still snug around my chest.

I'm nine months pregnant and this nightgown just was not flattering at all. I ordered the small and length was good (I'm 5' 1") and it fit my belly fine but the chest was way too big. Also, the style in person (which looked great in the picture) looked like something my grandmother would wear as a housedress- not subtly sexy as the product description claimed. The waist which looks like an empire waist in the picture actually fell somewhere odd between my actual waist and under my chest so the overall look wasn't attractive. Plus I'm pretty sure that once I don't have a belly taking up space, the waist will also be way too big. Material was soft and comfortable but ultimately I decided to return the item.

I love this nursing gown. I wish I would have purchased 3 or more of these! It's super comfy and perfect for nursing.

These are great! I was so excited to get these in the mail because my pants were literally falling off. I'm a size 20, and bought the size three, so was a little nervous that it would be too snug. I was pleasantly surprised that the size range was accurate, and that it just feels as if you're wearing a fitted tank. I also found that a bonus use for them post partum will be that they cover your whole torso as well as your breasts, so that you can hold in nursing pads at night without wearing a bra! My pants don't fall down anymore, and I'm really glad I got a three pack.
I love the three Baby Be Mine bands I purchased. I'm 4 1/2 months pregnant and still wearing my regular clothes. I wear them every day and it adds the popular layered look everyone is stating these days, as well as hides my slightly unzipped pants when needed.
Excellent fit, perfect 3-pack of colors, and they add versatility to your wardrobe! They are exactly what I was looking for. They really hold up pants well, and I like that I can wear them over the sewn-in bands of my maternity pants to hide the darker colors that might show through under my light-colored shirts. I'm even planning to wear them postpartum because they look so great as mock tank tops peaking out underneath shirts. They'll definitely help me transition back to my pre-pregnancy jeans. I also might use them as tube tops while breastfeeding at home! I can't say enough good things about these. Every pregnant woman should get some.

Love the product, but ordered two different sizes because I was in-between size 3 and 4 (size 18) according to the sizing chart. The smaller of the two works and fits perfectly. The larger one is too loose and doesn't hold my pants up and doesn't support my growing belly. I ordered two more of the smaller size and am very happy with the products. Also worth mentioning, the dark colors "hide" unzipped pants much better then the lighter colors.
I purchased 3 different Bella (or belly) bands at the beginning of my pregnancy with my 3rd child. I wish I had had them with my other two pregnancies. They were fabulous. The baby be mine belly band was longer than the actual "bella" band that everyone was raving about. I was a little concerned with the size and afraid that I wouldn't get the right size, but I went with the smaller of the two choices that could have fit me. I was very happy with the fit. Overall, I was able to wear most of my non-maternity pants with the band and they stayed up. I did have to adjust the band and pull the pant back up a bit once in a while, but I was very pleased. Now that my son is born, I use the band under my shirts when nursing. It has been great not to worry about exposing my stomach when I lift up my shirt. I just tuck the band into the strap of my bra and it is long enough to cover my entire abdomen and hold in those last few baby pounds.
I am really happy with the Belly Bands. They have really helped me out in my first trimester. I am 9 or 10 weeks along, small framed, and already beginning to show! Within the first 6-7 weeks my shorts and pants were alread too snug for me to button all the way. What I do is this: Turn it inside out and put it on. Then I tuck the bottom part in like it was a tee shirt, and then fold the top half over my waistband. Since my belly is not big yet, it just covers up my unbottoned pants.
Today I am wearing my low-rize jeans. When I sit down, the band doesn't do the total job of holding up the back of my pants, but I still think this is the best solution until I am ready for maternity pants.
I plan to buy more colors!

This is a cute nightgown and I was very happy with it when I first bought it. However, after two washes it shrunk up and now barely covers my behind! My tummy HAS grown a bit since I first bought it, but not so much that it shouldn't cover me adequately any longer. Also, the neck on it is a bit weird. The front of the neckline ends up right on my neck and the back of the neckline is way down in the middle of my back...it must be a weird cut. Worth buying due to price (I only paid $15) but make sure and order a size or two up.....especially if you still have a ways to go in your pregnancy.

I bought two of these shirts because they were on sale, and will be returning both. The fabric is very very thin...the white is incredibly see-thru...they are quite short in length as well. I am only 5'5 and I had to keep pulling it down to cover my belly (6 months pregnant). Also, the arm opening is pretty large so everyone gets a free show of your bra or breasts. The rouching is cute on the sides, but the area in between the breasts is crooked. There is absolutely nothing I like about these shirts.

One of the first maternity shirts I've found that isn't ruched on the side.

I'm 14 weeks pregnant, and this shirt is super comfy and flattering, and I think it will continue to be up until delivery. I usually wear a medium in other shirts, and the medium in this style fits perfect. The sleeves are even plenty long enough, which is great - I'm 5'8", and sometimes long sleeve t-shirts can be a little short in the arms after a wash or two. The fabric is snug enough that the long length shouldn't be a problem even if you don't have longer arms - the sleeves do not hang loose - they hug the arms all the way to the wrist.

The torso is long enough and stretchy enough to expand easily with my belly, but not the tight kind of stretchy - just snug enough to be flattering. The neckline is low enough to be flattering, but not so low that my cleavage is on display (though now that I have some, I might not mind showing it off, haha). The material is not thin, about as thick as a regular good-quality cotton shirt, and I think will withstand many rounds of washing and wearing. I kind of wish I had discovered these shirts prior to becoming pregnant - they look great, even without a big belly!

Since these shirts are currently on sale in the store, I stocked up on a few colors, though the black is my favorite. The white is a little see-through, but not any more so than a regular white t-shirt. I teach college, and would not wear the white shirt in front of my classes without something over it, but would feel fine going out with friends or running errands (with a nude bra underneath), or to layer under something else. Even not on sale however, this shirt is definitely a good deal for the price (currently $17 on Amazon and in the stores).

This shirt looks great with the Motherhood Maternity Super-Stretch Long Bootcut Jeans.

These are the only compression socks I've bought that fit well! I've bought T.E.D.s and a pair at a local medical supply and both of those are way too long in the foot and the calf. But these socks are made to fit women. I'm 5'5" and weigh 290 and these socks are just a little tight at the top. But wearable for a few hours. And these socks are sturdy! Should last for years.
These socks really did the trick for my swollen ankles from pregnancy. Would recommend to anyone looking to get their pre-baby ankles back.

Dear Amazon, I love you.
By e
I went directly to Motherhood Maternity's website on Jan 15th and ordered these pants that I desperately need for work asap. They were backordered with a date of being in stock of 1/25, I waited patiently as they did have a date for being in stock on their website. On 1/25, the wording changed to say 1-3 weeks. I promptly called customer service and spoke to a woman who seem less than enthused by her job. I asked her to cancel my order, she said she did. Three days later, still an auth on my credit card. Meanwhile I came to Amazon and looked to see if they had the pants in stock - side note: even though their website and customer service (on the phone, not in store) was sub par, their clothing is wonderful. Anyway, of course Amazon did!!! Funny how buying direct gets you nowhere but Amazon gets you your order together and on the way in no time. I will be a loyal Amazon customer forever!! Oh yeah and the pants? They're pretty nice too :) The product is great, the company, obviously - could use a little sprucing up.

Shipping is a rip-off
By R. Mcfarlane
This is a practical item for expecting mothers; however, note that they will charge you almost 6 times the cost of the product just to ship it. While I didn't mind paying $1.50 for the extender, the $6.00 shipping cost was a bit steep.

First nursing bra
By das_oompa
For my third pregnancy, I finally decided to get my first nursing bra. After I received it and put it on, I felt like kicking myself for not having gotten some with my first 2 kids! As soon as I put this bra on, I knew I would never be without it until my baby was completely weaned (and even then I might wear it)! It felt like pajamas for breasts! This bra is so comfortable and I love the ease on the one-handed opening. Perfect nursing bra!

I forgot that nursing bras are not supposed to have underwires!
By Work of Life
Oops, This bra fits and feels great, but the underwires can lead to clogged milk ducts (so say all the lactation experts). Women's milk ducts actually extend to the arm-pit area and bras with under-wires can apparently wreak havok on the ducts in that area according to my midwife. Oh well...

Definitely not mommy sized
By Elziabeth Baron
This is a super cute top however, is more appropriate for a teen mom (or just a teenager in general) than a mature woman. The area from the bust to where the flare begins is meant for someone with a VERY small chest, not appropriate for a pregnant woman. I am an average size woman and am barely showing at 6 months pregnant, so I was surprised when the large didn't fit me.

Product Description

All Pretty Pushers delivery gowns are 100% pure American cotton; dyed and printed with water-based substances. They are meant to be worn, disposed of, and not to have hot water and harsh chemicals wasted on cleaning them. This is a smart option to other designer delivery gowns which cost too much to be 'disposable', yet really what else can be done with a messy gown that's just gone through labor... be washed by the hospital staff? Bagged up and taken home two days later? Not a chance! The Pretty Pushers gown is an easy, inexpensive alternative! And the best aspects of these delivery gowns are the openings in all the right places. Many modern labors involve epidurals, monitors, and other IV cords. Women are left disappointed by the traditional labor gowns which allow for none of the above! The Pretty Pushers gown was designed with a halter neck and low-cut back for epidural access. Additionally, there is an opening (with tie closure) at the front of the gown for both the fetal monitor and the mother's monitor, if needed. Pretty Pushers utilizes as much recycled and recyclable material as possible in their packaging and shipping components. Of course as the company grows, so will their use of modern technology and ideas to lessen even more their impact on the environment. This company holds a strong social commitment, too...All products are 100% Made in America.

Very sexy and very cool...
By CK in PA
Never thought I'd be writing a review for a disposable dress, but then again, I never thought I'd be buying one. At any rate, I will will provide a pro and an accompanying con. Here it goes:
Pro: Fits beautifully
Con: Embarrassingly enough, it took a few minutes to figure it out

Pro: It's uber-comfortable
Con: Pricey still, only to throw it away after the big day

Pro: Great cut and style make you feel attractive at a not so attractive time
Con: Not sure how the headband matters, but whatevs

Pro: Allows foe access to monitors and epidural (or spinal) if you go that route
Con: Still, wish it was made of more durable material as the dress rocks and no one would know you gave birth in it unless you told them

Overall, I'd recommend.

Great product for the money!
By Melissa Citak
I was pleasantly surprised in the quality and fit of the "Pretty Pushers Delivery Gown." My dress size was a size 0 pre-pregnancy weight (I'm 5'8' and was 120 pounds... now I'm about 145 pounds), so I thought that this gown would be huge on me; however, it is adjustable and fits very well. I know that some customers complained about the thin material in other reviews, but I'm not sure why. You can't see through it, and it's seems like it would hold-up in the wash machine. Keep in mind, it is advertised as a "disposable" gown, so it's not meant for galavanting around town after delivery! In all, I think it's a great product for the money, and it gives you some modesty, too. I highly recommend this product and can't wait to wear it come October!

I felt special and sexy!
By sduffyRN
I had my third baby at home with a midwife and three of my close friends and I felt so cute in this! It has a LOW plunging neckline (I went walking in the neighborhood prior to transition and I needed to cover up :) But this makes breastfeeding EASY! The cloth is SO SOFT, I felt as if I was wearing nothing at all. This is a great gift for a brand new mommy~ so much better than a boring, ugly hospital gown. I was also able to wash it and wear it again, it held up well.

perfect for pregnant matron of honor

I was a MOH in my best friends wedding the day I was due. I waited until the last minute to buy a dress since I wasn't sure if I would have my son before then. Luckily, navy blue was her color. This dress was perfect! It was flattering yet not too "matronly" no one could believe that I bought it online. Plus, the top is perfect for nursing so I can wear it to holiday parties too.

Product Description

Wear your non-pregnant pants a little longer and your maternity fashions a little sooner! The BellaBand is a seamless knit band you wear at your waistline, over your unbuttoned pre-maternity pants or over slightly big maternity pants and skirts. No one has to know your pants are undone or loose -- the BellaBand smoothes everything out. The BellaBand is made of soft, sumptuous European yarn that is hard to find and expensive to buy. It gives the final product, a knitted BellaBand, significant loft, thickness, and a sueded feel to the hand which is soft to the skin and gently grips the clothing it covers to hold itself in place. The yarn is knitted with nylon and with the highest gram of blended yarn per square inch which gives the product a heavy weight, incredible stretch and recovery, comfort, support and an opaque surface.

Perfect
By Maryanne M. Nelson
Works great, but I should have gone with a bigger size since I was on the line. I ordered another one bigger to wear while I get bigger. My smaller one worked great for the beginning. If you're on the border of sizes, get the larger one so you can use through out your whole pregnancy.

Works awesome. Comfy. Not just for pregnant women ;-)
By the Newlyweds
I just received my BellaBand. I had originally purchased a Hip T, which is the same concept but it's so much shorter that it's constantly riding up. I decided to give the BellaBand a try b/c it was such a wider panel of fabric.

For starters, I am not pregnant (although I am trying w/ hubby now. sprinkle that baby dust our way *wink* ) But I'm a tall gal and have trouble finding work appropriate tops with decent length. So I wanted a HipT/BellyBand to create an additional layer with length, and cover up my plumbers crack with lowrise pants (guilty). I love how it looks like i'm wearing a lace cami under my shirts, and that just gives a really polished look to any top. I also like that the band acts slightly like a body shaper, smoothing down the lovehandles and belly a tad. And with the BellyBand, I can roll it down for more support and it double duties on that stubborn belly pooch. And b/c of the fabric blend it remains nearly undetectable through most shirts. Granted sheer tops will reveal it but even some body hugging tops don't reveal it's there. Plus it's very comfortable and stays in place pretty good. Just make sure to get the right size or it will ride up.

I bought a Sz 2 in the White Lace. For reference I'm 5'8", 150 lbs, and wear a size 8-10 in pants mostly. I find myself using it at least once a week. I wash it in cold on delicate, inside out, and let it air dry flat.

And now I'll be able to use it when I become pregnant and then post-preggers too.

Way to go Ingrid & Isabel :)

How does this work for other people?
By V. Evans
I bought a bella band to stay in my pre-pregnancy pants while I'm still in this "not a baby bump, just kinda fat" stage. I couldn't figure out how this could possibly work, but I assumed that it would since so many people rave about bella bands.

Within 20 minutes of putting it on, the band had crept all the way up around my ribcage and my pants had fallen down to my hips. The only way I can imagine this actually working would be if it somehow connected to the pants to hold them up.

I can't be the first woman with hips to ever try one of these bands, can I?

I'm hanging onto it, perhaps I'll find it useful later in my pregnancy.

super comfortable
By Rebecca Conlon
I got this shirt in black and white for Christmas this year. I am 12 weeks along and the shirt is a size large.

This is probably one of the most comfortable shirts I've worn since getting pregnant - It's going to have plenty of room for me to grow belly wise, and I wear it quite frequently to work and just every day as well. I plan on buying this one as well, since it's such a comfy shirt, I'd like to be able to have it in more colors.

lil mama
By lil mama
I was a little dissappointed with the sizing of this shirt. I am going to keep it but will probably not be able to wear it past my 4th month. Not much room for belly growth. I thought the white undershirt was attached but it doesn't come with it. I will still wear it but I recommend it for early pregnancy and after the baby is born.

skip it...
By EJaneD
They are really tight and roll up at the back/hips and roll down under your breasts. If you want shape and support, i would try the "fit shaper panty" from motherhood maternity. They are inexpensive and very comfortable. This is "ok" for a very short time but really wont do much for you. Save your money.

Good Product, works for what is necessary
By IveyA
Good product, does what it says, but still experience rolling at the bottom of the band. It definitely helps with the weight of the baby and keeps my back from hurting at the same time, but it does roll and pinch at the bottom after about 4 hours. Overall this is a good product and very breathable. I would definitely recommend to a friend.

ok, rolls a bit
By kat
Also a little frustrating because at first they sent me the wrong item, but they quickly remedied it.

I like this piece, but it's best as a cover, doesn't really do much for support and sometimes it does roll a bit.

even better than i thought!
By durhammama
this suit arrived yesterday and it is even better in person! I didn't appreciate that there were so many ways to wear it (e.g., two straps, halter, and strapless) and it is so bump flattering. i have tried a number of other maternity suits, even from Pez, and this is by far my favorite. can't wait to go swimming! fits true to size.

I'm glad I ordered it!
By Sulu
I have only tried this on - not actually worn it swimming yet - but so far I am quite happy. It fit snugly, but comfortably. I would normally be a "M" in non-maternity and the "M" fit me well now. I am currently 5 months pregnant. ... I did feel trepidation ordering a suit from a website, but am glad I did since nothing else I found around town (NYC in December) fit me as well or was as cute.

A couple of thoughts: As a former bikini wearer, I'm more into tankini cuts in general. The legs are typically cut higher than a one piece, which for my body type is more flattering. This tankini is cut to hug the bump, rather than to be loose - I like that because when I play in the waves or swim around, I don't like for my tummy to show (I'm trying to keep sun off of it b/c I don't want to get one of those pigment lines up the middle!). I can tell the top of this one will stay in place around my breasts too. So for me, this suit is both cute and functional. Also, it may be helpful to know that the bottoms are medium coverage - I hate suits that are too skimpy b/c I'm not comfortable with my butt hanging out. This is just enough coverage (esp since I have expanded there as well as in the bump area). I wouldn't be comfortable if it was cut any smaller - but it's not a particularly conservative cut bottom either.

Do not order if you have a long torso
By Lisab444
Received this item and it was so cute! Tried it on and the top of the bathing suit barely covered my belly button. I returned the item and only received a 50% refund. Do not buy unless you know it is going to fit.

Awesome, Easy-To-Read Book
By Todd7
I bought this book for my OB/PEDS class for my nursing program, and I must say that it takes two complex areas of nursing and really breaks them down into small,manageable pieces through easy reading. This book's writing style is very tangible, and therefore makes for an enjoyable experience for the student. Easy reading yields better results, in my opinion. Furthermore, the pages contain special boxed-in areas highlighting very important and relevant nursing "alerts." At the end of each chapter, there is an NCLEX summary of key points that groom one for the big exam. Again, it's in an easy-to-understand format. Learning can be fun when the student isn't overwhelmed or intimidated by the complexity of how material is presented through some of the textbooks out there. This book is very inviting and effective. I recommend it.

The seam ruined this pillow for me.
By Mel
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2BPWUC9IVMRSF I purchased this pillow with the desire to have it help me stay on my side throughout the night, but it was a huge disappointment. Other reviewers noted the "seam" at the top seemed to be "uncomfortable" and would "dig into my shoulders." These reviewers were absolutely correct. This video shows the challenges with that seam and allows you to choose whether or not to take the plunge. Leachco offers no solutions to assist with this problem, but I tried several and nothing worked.

1. Place a pillow in the U groove (too bulky)
2. Put your head on the separated side where the feet belong (the pillow separated too much and I ended up on my back)
3. Pull the feet closer together (I had them overlapped at one point)
4. Pull my head down and away from the seam to get it off my shoulder (my neck was at some weird vertical angle)
5. Take the outer cover off (although the outer cover had a worse seam than the inner product, this didn't really help)

I acutally had dreams about showing people the groove markings on my neck. The pain was so significant while I was asleep that it infiltrated my dreams. Perhaps this product is more defective than most and my complaints are worse than most, but you will be able to judge for yourself. If you look close enough in the video, you might see the threads pulling at the seam, and considering this pillow has been used for one night, that should not be the case.

One recommendation that other reviewers had that was great was to cut off one end of a pillow case and place it at the top of the U to avoid cleaning as often. I did this, but it didn't help the seam.

I simply cannot recommend a product that I cannot sleep with and it will be returned tomorrow.

One final note - this video includes some brief coverage of the Leachco Snoogle which is shown in the picture. The snoogle takes up about 15% of the review time, while the Back N Belly pillow takes the other 85%.Leachco Snoogle Total Body Pillow

You need this pillow
By jacquelinemary
I got this when I was just beginning to show and I loved it so much. I heard all the other pregnant women who couldn't sleep because they couldn't get comfortable; obviously they didn't have this touch of heaven. It is big, but i slept in a different bed while i was pregnant(why torture my husband with my bizarre sleep patterns and continuous trips to the bathroom while i was pregnant?). So if you have a queen you and your hubby will have a tight fit in bed with this pillow, but it would be fine with a king. I cut the end out of pillow case so I could have an extra cover over the pillow for my face area(so I didn't have to wash off my eye makeup if i wanted to catch a quick nap). The case that comes over the pillow is great, but you don't want to be taking it off every week to wash, just cut the end out of a pillowcase you don't like anymore and wash the big case less frequently.

Saved my aching hips
By L. Camacho
A totally worthwhile investment!

About 12 weeks into my pregnancy, my hips were already aching so badly that I couldn't sleep. I went online and searched for pregnancy pillows and this was the only one I found that mentioned alleviating hip and shoulder pain.

It works. The first night I used it, I slept all through the night with no pain whatsoever.

I agree with other reviewers - the cover is poorly designed and the seam at the U-curve really cut into my shoulder. But I have since inverted the pillow and sleep with my regular pillow slung across the "legs." I like this better as it doesn't prop my head up so high.

The other way I have positioned this pillow is to wrap the "legs" around to create little circular nest to put my belly into so I can nap on my stomach. I can't say it's too comfortable for long-term sleeping, but the novelty of resting in something other than a side-lying position is pure bliss! It also makes my back readily available for massages...

I have a queen sized bed and my husband hasn't complained a bit about being crowded out. He snuggles right up to me in my "nest" and is still hogging most of the bed, as usual.

Overall, I would highly recommend this pillow - particularly to pregnant women suffering from hip and shoulder pain. Don't worry about the negative comments about the poor design. The cover could definitely be a improved upon, but it's not a deal-breaker. You just learn to compensate for it with different positions, etc. Hopefully the manufacturer will either fix the seam or offer different pillow covers, but even if they never do, you won't want to be without this wonderful pillow.

Works. Gives me peace of mind.
By szw03
I bought this because of my worrying about an international trip to a third world country while 3 months pregnant. I was afraid that flight radiation and environmental radiation at the destination country could harm my baby. I did a test upon receiving this camisole and it worked as advertised. My cell phone had no signal when covered under it. It feels wonderful like silk and is very pretty.

This product is just fine
By theManch
I honestly don't understand why people are disappointed in this. First off, I'm 5'7. I'm taller (and probably larger) than the other users and I will tell you why I am fine with this product.

1) I already have a pillow for my head. That is not what I bought this for. I bought this for my bodily aches and pains and it fully helps with that. I think everyone else is expecting too much from this pillow, and if it's "too short" or "too small" use your other pillow too. It's not rocket science.

2) I share a queen size bed with my husband (and occasionally my large dog too). This pillow is the perfect size because no one feels like they're losing bed space. It fits very comfortably.

3) I'm quite a mover while asleep. I mean, I'm all over the place. This pillow is compact and light enough to shift around and move through the night with me. I'm sure you will not find the same ease with a full-size body pillow.

4) The very best thing about this pillow is that you can easily shape it into a giant "O" and sleep on your stomach with your belly in the center. In fact, I haven't slept so soundly since being pregnant than I have when I'm able to sleep on my stomach. This easily allows for that, even though the pictures don't show that option.

5) If you're wondering why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, it is because yes, the cover is removable and washable, but the design of it makes it very difficult to remove. There are no easy-access zippers, velcro or anything else. It is a tightly-sewn sleeve on one end of the pillow. Not very convenient.

I think everyone just needs to lighten up. Everyone expects this to be a miracle, do-all pillow, but it's just a pillow. It is what you make it. In fact, you should buy this for its smaller size than for anything else. Also, for the price, it's a killer deal, not to mention you can use it for nursing once your little one arrives.

Does the job . . . maybe a little small
By shan1212
I got the Snoogle Mini instead of the full size because I didn't want to make the bed too crowded; I'm just under 5'5". It stays in place and keeps me on my side the whole night. The first night I used it I had hip tightness on one side the next day, but since then it's been quite comfortable.

I lie on my side with the Snoogle in front of me and the hooked end between my legs. The tapered end hits me right around the neck, which isn't how I think it was designed, but now that it's a bit more pliable after some use it's very comfortable, and I hug the top of the pillow while I sleep. It's also comfortable if it shifts a little away from my body in the front.

Cons: It is a bit awkward to turn over without messing up the covers. The pillow case is difficult to get on and off, but at least it's washable.

Overall, this is what I had in mind when I started feeling hip pain and finding it hard to stay on my side. The larger Snoogle only seems practical in a king sized bed or when sleeping alone. This is the next best thing.

Works good
By K. Kemp
This pillow has worked great for me. I'm 6 months pregnant--It is the Snoogle MINI - so it is not designed to be a full body pillow, but that is what I liked about it. It allows me to continue sharing the bed with my husband, which is very important to me!

Definitely would recommend!

works well but belly panel runs
By Margaret
This is the perfect garment to wear under dresses or smooth pants. My only complaint is that the belly panel is a little too sheer and runs/snags too easily.

Comfy & supportive
By Expecting
In my second trimester, I developed an inguinal hernia from the presure of my growing baby. I kept trying lots of belts & such but they were all uncomfortable. Out of desperation, I tried spanx & it has helped so much! Not only is there inguinal support (probably helps with round ligament pain - I would think), but back support & the waist part of the hose is really comfortable - doesn't feel too tight. The only drawback is that they are a little warm to wear in the summer.

Great Product!
By E. Carter
This product is great! I wear Spanx when I am not pregnant, so when I found out they made a version for us pregnant ladies I was so excited. It hides all the flaws of a growing body and I love that I can wear some of the more form fitting maternity clothing without worrying about ....rolls :-) All in all great product and it really helps provide that extra needed vanity and physical support.

Comfy, for a while.
By Aerie Anderson
I purchased this pillow at the end of December 2010 but did not begin using it on a nightly basis until mid-February 2011. It's now April 2011...and the pillow is already flattening and losing its shape.

That said, it is still useful, and I definitely still get some benefit from using it. The part that goes between the knees is still fluffy enough to provide support and I can wedge the middle bit beneath my belly to get some support there. Unfortunately, the portion for neck/head/shoulder support is just not holding up. The filling is becoming lumpy (no, I haven't washed the pillow yet, so it's not from washer/dryer) and it's just not quite as comfortable as it was initially.

I expect the pillow will last until the end of this pregnancy, but I won't be saving it for the next one...I doubt it will be able to hold up through another. I'll probably look for a different body pillow the next time.

Love it! Love it! Love it!
By Janelle Means
I LOVE this pillow. It offers the support that I need without being overwhelming in bed. I can turn back and forth from side to side with it relatively easily. It also doesn't take up too much space so I don't kick my hunny out of bed while using it. I like the options with it as well. You can fold it in half and prop yourself up to read or watch tv, lay it on one side of me so I can lay more on my back with support or all the way on my side with it between my legs and rest my arm on it. Plus, I know I can use it when the baby comes too to prop him up while relaxing or breastfeeding. It's the perfect "fluffiness" and hasn't deflated like some other reviews stated. I was skeptical when I saw how small it is when its in the packaging but it's been a life saver thus far and I plan on using it as much possible. I HIGHLY recommend!

LOVE IT
By Candace
I love the Boppy Body Pillow! I can't live without it. I couldn't sleep well starting in my 6th month. I was restless and up every hour. When I got the pillow that all changed. So soft and comfortable I fell asleep within minutes and didn't wake up during the night.

Gownies - Designer Maternity Hospital Gown

Gownies - Designer Maternity Hospital Gown
From Baby Be Mine
List Price: ~~$49.99~~
Price: $29.99 - $49.99

Product Description

Hospital provided delivery gowns are simply awful - you are in a totally new environment and have no option than to wear this old oversized gown given to you. Often you are asked to wear two, one backwards to cover the gaps in the back while getting up and moving around. The last thing you need to be doing is constantly adjusting, strings untied, shoulder falling down and retying those horrible strings or asking someone to do it for you! You want comfort, you want to feel covered, you want to feel prepared - and maybe a little bit of control - not to mention feeling good about yourself! When designing these Gownies, having been through numerous deliveries ourselves, we took into account everything that should be changed on a delivery gown - and here it is! So just say "no thank you' to that tatty old gown and put on something from home, it feels great, clean and stylish - and yes! You can look stylish when giving birth. So many hospital staff have contacted us to enquire on our Gownie line - the compliments will just come rolling in! Congratulations - you did it! Your precious little one is finally here after all those months, you will look great for those new baby pictures, no more flashing oop's shots sent to all you family and friends! Consider more than one Gownie - they are great for your hospital stay as the examinations keep on coming and perhaps breast feeding is now here - a fabulous nursing nightgown. C Section moms have loved the Gownies for the recovery time as they are easy to wear, comfortable and have continued style throughout their healing. Our Gownies are a celebrity favorite. Worn by Bethenny Frankel, Erica McGraw (Dr. Phil s daughter in law), The cake boss wife Lisa,Pam from the NBC The Office, Rachel Ray`s fashion stylist Gretta and numerous more...

So adorbale and got many compliments!
By P. Lopez
I purchased the brown gownie with multi-colored flowers. It was sooo adorable that all the nurses and both my Doctors all gave me compliments. The gown also made me feel really special and pretty for the birth of my little one not to mention that my pictures look really cute! The gown is sturdy (much sturdier than the typical hospital gown) and has snap buttons in the back and also on the side which is great for nursing. very comfortable. I will save my gownie to use with baby number 3 set to arrive a few years down the road!

Fabulous Quality - My Daughter Loved It
By Hilda M. White
I purchased this for my daughter, I was stumped as to what to buy for her as her delivery approached. I had bought a belly band from this company before (which was a hit) and although I had never imagined taking your own delivery gown to the hospital, I thought it was a novel idea. She really liked it and wore it when my beautiful granddaughter was born - she looked wonderful too and received so many compliments and queries as to where she got it. It turned out to be a great gift, Baby Be Mine, my 2nd purchase and a very contented customer! Thank you. A new Grandma!

Cute but not good for all purposes
By Susan Holley
While this gown is cute, I soon discovered it was not the most practical. Becuase the shoulders don't have snaps all the way down, it doesn't work for when you have an IV. You can feed the IV through the sleeve, but this is a bit cumbersome. I would disagree with this gown as having full medical access so you might want to consider that before purchasing.

Todays Mom Cozy Comfort Pregnancy Pillow - Espresso

2 new or used available from $67.95

Product Description

Good maternity pillows are hard to find. It's all about mom's comfort when it comes to a pregnancy pillow and Today's Mom Cozy Comfort is an excellent maternity pillow. Today's Mom has listened to the biggest concerns of...well, moms of course! One of the biggest pregnancy pillow problems has been hard edges digging into mom's shoulder. The Cozy Comfort has a curve shaped, shoulder support design, that contours to the shoulder and provides a soft sleep. Another problem examined by Today's Mom is lumbar support. The Cozy Comfort correctly supports mommy's weight while she sleeps. An important upgrade mother's demanded was belly support. This maternity body pillow features a belly support allowing the tummy to rest and support the baby comfortable. Perhaps the best feature is the large, square head rest area. Other pillows feature a flimsy, oddly shaped area for the head. The Cozy Comfort's head support resembles a standard pillow to provide comfort. This is one of the only pregnancy pillows designed with an easy to remove zipper-cover. Now, the pillow and case can be separated for washing. Both are machine washable, made of a 50/50 combination of polyester and cotton, and a 200 Thread count percale. Please note that due to hygiene reasons, this product cannot be returned.

No more hip pain!!!
By Nicole Barney
Let me say that this pillow has been a god-send to me! From the very early weeks of my pregnancy, I have been experiencing fairly severe hip pain after I wake up. I tried putting a traditional body pillow in between my legs at night to relieve the pain, but it didn't help. I still ended up turning over 4 or 5 times every night because my hips were hurting so badly. I finally gave in at about 7 months and bought this pillow. I wish I would have had it all along! Here is what I love about it:

1. It contours to my body very well, so my belly is supported at all times.
2. If I do turn over to sleep on my other side, I don't have to turn the pillow too because it wraps all the way around me!
3. I have not had any hip pain since I started sleeping with this pillow. I used to ache for at least an hour after waking up and even limped sometimes because the pain was so bad. Now, I wake up feeling great!
4. It is not as big as it looks in the pictures. I am 5'8" and it fits me fine. I thought it would be way too big and take up my whole bed, but it doesn't. My husband and I have a queen size bed and we can both sleep comfortably without the pillow getting in his way.

I would recommend this product to any pregnant woman. I know you will sleep well with it!

It gets the job done!
By E. Conn
I did a lot of research before deciding to order this pillow, and I am satisfied with my purchase. I am 26 weeks pregnant and my main problems were waking up during the night with lower back pain, trouble just "getting comfortable" in bed, and back pain throughout the day. Since I started using this pillow my pain has all but vanished! I still wake up during the night but I am able to fall back asleep much more quickly because it is easy to get comfortable. While I think I made a good purchase, there are definitely some pros and cons to consider:

Pros:
--You can switch from side to side without having to move or adjust the pillow
--The pillow holds its shape and doesn't get flat
--The pillow has awesome back support!
--Removable, washable cover in a neutral color (mine is brown)
--I think this will make an excellent nursing pillow, supporting both mom and baby

Cons:
--Cover is not very soft...I sometimes get the urge to put a soft blanket between my head and the pillow
--It gets kind of noisy when I switch sides or am trying to get "adjusted"....not so good if your husband is a light sleeper. Luckily mine could sleep through a tornado!
--It's pretty big. If you are sharing the bed with your husband, it would be best to have a king size.
--It's a little pricey, in my opinion. But then again, can you put a price on comfort and sleep? At least the shipping was free!

I would definitely recommend this pillow to other pregnant women. Just keep in mind how much space you have in your bed and if you have room to store it!

Not sure about it
By Mariah Shill
I bought this product because a lot of people had success with it. I am 5'4 and feel overwhelmed by all the pillow. I have used it 4 times and it now is now off the bed. It felt like I could never get a handle on how to lay in it. I think it would be better suited for a taller person without short legs. It is still good quality, however, and if you are willing to spend the money give it a try.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Three Seasons Maternity Women's Hatch Cardigan Button Sweater (Apparel)
Maybe I should have guessed by the name "Three Seasons," but this sweater was lighter weight than I was hoping for. The quality of the stitching is also a little cheaply done, and the threadwork looks like something that belongs in a WalMart. This is a case of you get what you paid for. It's holding together fine (although I haven't sent it through the wash yet)and the color/design is pretty true to the image, but I guess I was hoping for more of a bargain (i.e. a quality item at an Amazon price).

Weird Fit
By T. Akidau
This cami fits oddly as the "shelf bra" is really high so that the breasts are popping out of the top and, not only that, but the strap underneath that is revealed when you peel back the top layer to breast feed, goes over the nipple - which is not only impractical, but uncomfortably chafing. I returned this immediately.

what the heck?
By L. ROSE
Underneath the camisole is a strange strip of fabric and the placement of it is totally weird for breastfeeding. Other camisoles and nursing bras are different, with two sides and then a gap in the middle. Well the fabric on this one just goes down the middle. It's weird, uncomfortable and impractical. I wore it during a visit to a lactation consultant who was surprised when she saw it and said it the strip went right over a milk duct or something like that and that is bad for milk flow. So if that is true I imagine that defeats the purpose for most.

Barely covers breasts
By Andrea G
The tank is made of nice material. The straps are adjustable. Problem: I'm breastfeeding. My breasts are barely contained in the top's built in bra. I'm medium, and if I wasn't breastfeeding my breasts would fit in the tank. It makes sense to me that if I were making a nursing top the size would fit while accounting for larger breasts on the small, large, or medium frame.

uncomfortable
By JKel
this bra 1. doesn't fit right, it creates what i call "torpedo boob" -making an ugly cone shape instead of round.. 2. the lace on it causes it to be very itchy! If I hadn't already worn it out of desperation, Id be returning it right now.

SO UNCOMFORTABLE!!
By shellsm
I ordered two of these bras because I thought they looked feminine and pretty and they were priced right. They fit well, but the material is SO ITCHY and uncomfortable! By the end of the day, the skin underneath my breasts has red, rashy welts. I do not normally have sensative skin, and I have tried throwing a ton of fabric softener in with the wash, but still not very comfortable!

Cute but thin....
By Jennifer
As I have found to be true with many motherhood maternity items the material is very thin and requires an undershirt to be worn with it. :( It can get pretty chilly here and I was hoping for something thicker. Looks wise it is cute though and might be better for wearing at a location that doesn't get under 60 degrees.

Unsure of size? Choose the smaller one.
By Work of Life
Love the product, but ordered two different sizes because I was in-between size 3 and 4 (size 18) according to the sizing chart. The smaller of the two works and fits perfectly. The larger one is too loose and doesn't hold my pants up and doesn't support my growing belly. I ordered two more of the smaller size and am very happy with the products. Also worth mentioning, the dark colors "hide" unzipped pants much better then the lighter colors.

I purchased 3 different Bella (or belly) bands at the beginning of my pregnancy with my 3rd child. I wish I had had them with my other two pregnancies. They were fabulous. The baby be mine belly band was longer than the actual "bella" band that everyone was raving about. I was a little concerned with the size and afraid that I wouldn't get the right size, but I went with the smaller of the two choices that could have fit me. I was very happy with the fit. Overall, I was able to wear most of my non-maternity pants with the band and they stayed up. I did have to adjust the band and pull the pant back up a bit once in a while, but I was very pleased. Now that my son is born, I use the band under my shirts when nursing. It has been great not to worry about exposing my stomach when I lift up my shirt. I just tuck the band into the strap of my bra and it is long enough to cover my entire abdomen and hold in those last few baby pounds.

I highly recommend this product.

Love it!
By J. Jaeger
I am really happy with the Belly Bands. They have really helped me out in my first trimester. I am 9 or 10 weeks along, small framed, and already beginning to show! Within the first 6-7 weeks my shorts and pants were alread too snug for me to button all the way. What I do is this: Turn it inside out and put it on. Then I tuck the bottom part in like it was a tee shirt, and then fold the top half over my waistband. Since my belly is not big yet, it just covers up my unbottoned pants.
Today I am wearing my low-rize jeans. When I sit down, the band doesn't do the total job of holding up the back of my pants, but I still think this is the best solution until I am ready for maternity pants.
I plan to buy more colors!

Pretty thin
By J. Smith
Maybe I should have guessed by the name "Three Seasons," but this sweater was lighter weight than I was hoping for. The quality of the stitching is also a little cheaply done, and the threadwork looks like something that belongs in a WalMart. This is a case of you get what you paid for. It's holding together fine (although I haven't sent it through the wash yet)and the color/design is pretty true to the image, but I guess I was hoping for more of a bargain (i.e. a quality item at an Amazon price).
