bump bands

[cherelle]

..... has anyone got one?

Im just wondering if they actually help with the strain of having a big bump or not? I feel like it might benefit me to wear one cos ive got constant back ache and im straining to hold my belly up lol!

I wonder where i would get a good one that doesnt cost too much, and do i buy my pre pregnancy size 10? x

I've got some but they aren't really to support bump there just to help with your tops so that you can still wear non maternity tops with them riding up. I'm going to my doc to see if I can get an actual bump support as I think I'm developing SPD xx

thanks hun thats really helpfull. The top one looks soo ugly lol but i think i might get it - looks like it would really support you x

 

[Kezzamunster]

No probs

I thought that to, kinda industrial looking but as we were always told when younger, medicine isn't always the nicest of things for the taste buds but good for us so I'd apply the same theory to this if that makes sense

i think give me a couple of weeks and ill be sat around in an industrial sized bump support with some lovely huge knickers on lol - i cant afford to try and be desirable when im this uncomfortable!! x

We going maternity bra shopping tomorrow after work! So not looking forward to hearing how much they've grown!! And so not looking forward to no underwire! lol x

 

[flopsybunny]

I was shocked how much my back measurement had gone up, from 36 to 40!! She said it is something to do with the ribcage opening or something like that. Where are you going? I went to mothercare and if you join the baby club whilst you are there, you get a booklet of vouchers with £5 off lingerie if you spend £30 or more.

my maternity bras are yucky to but like u say so comfy xx

 

[clairebear22]

I'm going to M&S. It's the only place I ever buy bra's from. Any other bra from any other shop never fits me properly! x
