While pregnant with my second child, I was struggling with a problem that is very common for pregnant women wearing maternity pants.  I just couldn’t keep my pants up high enough to be comfortable to be seen in public. I knew there was a problem when a 4-year old child playing with my older son noticed my underwear.  I love low-rise pants but, we all know how they can slouch down at the most inopportune baby lugging times. I can even admit to having trouble when my son would tug on my pants for a lift.

Now I’ve found the perfect solution BELLY UPS! They are two small suspenders that attach your pants to your bra. They are perfect for maternity wear but, still have their place in the non-maternity closet. I think they’re great to keep skirts from swishing around from front to back and to keep your pants from sliding down when baby-wearing (which can be a real problem). Now that I’ve had my son, they’ve also helped keep up my maternity pants as I begin to lose that baby weight. They come in three colors: nude, black, and pink hearts. They are available at Belly Ups!.
