And by pants I mean trousers for all you UK readers.
So from about month 5 or 6 I've been wearing full on maternity clothes, and found that I really hated most pants because they were really saggy once you start moving around. Maternity pants have basically two types of stretchy bands at the waist-ones that go under the bump and ones that go over. Neither fit very well. I've even tried different sizes. I always feel like I want a belt, but unfortunately there's nowhere to put one. But after Christmas I had an idea. I started using my stretchy band that I used in the in between stage when I just couldn't quite button up my regular pants. I put this on over the stretchy band on the maternity pants and it works like a charm. If you don't know what I'm talking about, have a look here: http://www.motherhood.com/Shop_MotherhoodMaternity/Tummy_Sleeve.asp. (Looking at that link I'm realizing I'm not the first person to think of this. Guess I overlooked that feature when I first got this thing--oh well nevermind.) I'm so pleased not have to walk 10 steps and hike up my pants. I'm sure it wasn't an attractive look.
ohhhhh i'll have to remember that for when i get prego
