These panties are literally magical. I wish I had had them for my previous two pregnancies, but they are especially appreciated this time as anything touching my stomach with even slight pressure makes me nauseous. I have no clue what the correlation between my stomach skin and morning/all day sickness is, but it sure makes it hard to work when all you want to do is remove the underwear that has the offending pressure band. Dresses have been my friends and removed the suffrage that were pants, but the panties were still a nuisance. These amazing undies have eliminated the remaining nuisance and allow me to have a pressure free stomach... that makes very happy. And when you are feeling better, your whole family feels better. Much thanks and will purchase more!!!
