Can you actually walk around with your trousers undone under a bump band?

They seem like a great idea but only if you can walk around. I don't want my trousers to fall down on the way to work!

Yeah you can to a certain extent - not completely undone I don't think......

Well I used to undo the button and a bit of the zip and they were fine - might depend on the fit of your bottoms tho!!

Yep you can- they are great!

Thanks ladies! I can still do the zip most of the way.

PPS, where did you get yours from? bumpband.co.uk?

I just got one from New Look actually. Was only a few pounds. Also, top shop do them for about £5.00.

Use a small hairband or rubber band. Loop it through button hole and then over the button on your jeans. Perfect for holding up undone trousers.

I got mine from Jojo Maman Bebe - a bit more expensive (although I think you can get a discount through this site?). They are £15 but have a double sided button with them that you can thread through the button hole in your trousers, then they have a hole for you to put your button from your trousers through - so they prevent your trousers coming undone too much. I've got a black and a white one and they are great. 22 weeks and can't see myself buying any maternity clothes for a good few weeks yet thanks to the bump bands.

Do they work if you havent got much of a bottom/hips. My trouser slip at the best of times.
