These pregnancy bands really are a good idea, especially when you are in the stage where you don't look pregnant, but you have gained about 5 pounds and none of your pants fit!

My only criticism is that the pre-pregnancy size chart is a little off. I bought size 2 and it feels a little big. Maybe it will fit better when I am bigger, though, if I choose to try and wear it with my pre-pregnancy pants. I have been folding it over.
