I got both the Belly Band and the Bella Band. The Belly Band is about 5 inches longer and not quite as high quality as the Bella Band, but as it is significantly less expensive, I felt it was just fine. Also, the quality is not poor, it is just not as good as the Bella. I either hand wash or machine wash delicate mine (even though it says you can wash it regular) because a friend of mine said hers developed pills after several washes. It's very comfortable (it's winter here and I'm usually a bit cold anyway, so the extra layer doesn't bother me) and I think the longer length will enable me to use these farther into my pregnancy than the Bella.

I am 5' tall and these just didn't sit comfortably on my belly. If I had a job that didn't require sitting for most of the day, they might have worked. Also, If I had a longer torso, they may have fit better.

After purchasing a Bella Band (and loving it), I decided to get a couple more colors. I was instantly attracted to this brand because they have fun prints and colors. I was very disapointed in the product because it doesn't actually hold up your pants if they are unbuttoned (like the bella band) As my pants are a bit tight, I thought that a couple more bands would extend my wardrobe. This product is good if you want to cover maternity panels, or to help give extra length to shirts or maternity pants that are too low- however, if you want to use it to extend your wardrobe by being able to wear pants unbuttoned-- don't waste your money.

These bands are great to make my regular pants that are getting too small wearable, and also the maternity pants that are still to big wearable. They are really helping me stretch my wardrobe in this akward stage!

I'm only 12 weeks along, so not very big yet, but just big enough that my pants are tight. These are very long, so I wear them as a tube top (in place of a cami) under shirts and sweaters. They are great!
