A belly band such as the Belly Bandit Bamboo is a maternity accessory designed to support the abdomen and lower back during pregnancy. It is used primarily in the second and third trimester as a support garment, although it can be used all throughout the pregnancy as necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should a mum-to-be buy maternity clothes?

Most women buy their maternity clothes at the end of the first trimester or the start of the second trimester. This is approximately around the 12th to 16th weeks of pregnancy. If you've been thinking of gifting ideas for future mums, then maternity clothes are also a good idea.  

 

Generally, it is also good to remember that each pregnancy is unique, so some women might need to purchase pregnancy clothing before or after this date. 

What sizes should you get when shopping for pregnancy and maternity outfits?

Maternity sizing works differently than standard sizing. Generally, many recommend that you stick to the sizing you used pre-pregnancy as the appropriate adjustments should be reflected. Of course, if you feel that you’ve lost or gained too much weight, then go for the sizing that makes you feel comfortable.
