I am just now hitting 25 weeks of pregnancy and though my pants have been an issue lately it was nothing a hair tie could not fix. That is not the case anymore, however, and I just could not find my belly band, so i was going through some of my clothes and I found two of those one size fits all stretchy shirts that I just do not wear and probably will never wear again. What to do then give them away? Not this time I decided they were the perfect material for a belly band or two with half of the work done for me. These bands have been more comfortable with the same support as my store bought belly band.
How To
To make these I cut the shirts right below the arm holes. The one in black I did not resize at all from the first cut I made. This band will probably last me through the whole pregnancy. The light blue one I made an additional cut to make a smaller size band.
I turned the band inside out and pinned the edges and sewed around the raw edge where I had made the cut.
After you sew the raw edge turn it right side out and your belly band is ready for use!
