Its just a piece of stretchy fabric, kind of like a back brace that velcros in the front under your belly and then there are two velcro strips on the side that you use to make it tight. like 4 inches wide is all! It works AWESOME at releaving pressure and helping w/your back. I've been having SO much pressure "down there" w/Little Liam and the normal back pains (not as bad as w/Izzy thank goodness!) and it is probably 110% better w/this band. I also use a knock of "bella band" for my pants. Any one try those? I have yet to use a pair of maternity pants at work. I can wear my normal pants unbuttoned w/the band overtop. Also way cool Just thought I'd share!!! P.S. I can post a picture of that support band if anyone is curious. No idea where you can buy it. She got it at JC Penny's like 12 years ago... --------------------

It constantly slips, and does nothing for holding up my pants or smoothing lines like it says it does. -------------------- ~Marie, mom to Robbie, 15 and Anthony, 7 and our newest addition, Mia Eliana~ ~~I promise to forget you not, my angels in heaven being watched by our fallen heroes, Dec 23 08, April 1 09, & May 18 09~~

I don't really like it w/my jeans, I have a lot of the same problems. But w/my black dress pants for work it's great. I HATE maternity dress pants. They always seem like clown pants to me.

And for some reason they're always too short!!! I feel like I look retarded and it bugs me all day. But w/jeans, yeah, I just wear the maternity jeans.

Then I noticed the date, lol. -------------------- Mom to: CJ 7.03, Alexis 10.09, Taylin 5.11, and Emma and Issac 4.12. Expecting our last baby Liam Jacob in April 2013.
