I bought a few of these bands in different colors and LOVED THEM. I used them throughout my entire 2nd trimester since this was my 1st pregnancy and my bump was smaller than others. I was able to get away with wearing my pre-pregnancy close the whole trimester and avoid buying expensive maternity clothes that didn't fit quite so right.

I'm tall, weighed between 165-175 during the 2nd trimester, so it works great with tall ladies with long torsos too. I dropped a star because the bands did begin to loose their elasticity after a while. I know this is expected, but the black on in particular lost its stretchiness the quickest. I mostly used the black and the white one.

I'm now in the 3rd trimester and I still use the bands at times. I wouldn't recommend it for support, although it does give you a "secure" feeling. If you are in between maternity clothes and pre-pregnancy clothes, then I DEFINITELY recommend this.
