I've been laughing for weeks about the American Idol song "Pants on the Ground". It's not so funny that my pregnancy pants don't want to stay up though. I have six different pairs of maternity jeans....I can't find any that really fit the belly. The pants that have the small elastic band that goes under the belly are good for early belly, but slip as my belly gets bigger. The "full coverage" maternity pants (1) are so ugly until the shirt goes over them----I know that's just vanity, but it is not a good look to catch myself in the mirror wearing and (2) slide down my big belly. I have found a cheap and relatively effective solution....Wear a cotton or modal (rayon)/lycra tank top underneath the pant band. I use my Modest Middles with the straps fully extended or a cheap regular tank top from Target. I have the Bella Band, but don't love it...it bunches me in a funky way. The cotton or rayon fabric of the tank tops seems to keep up the pants and gives me the extra coverage of my lower belly. I'd love to hear of other ways to keep "pregnancy pants OFF the ground". I actually hope that after this week I won't need to wear them =)
