WARNING: Product Placement

Don't worry, I'm not going to try and flash product placements all over this blog to try to win corporate sponsorship for my pregnancy! In fact, I was just thinking to myself earlier this morning, as I was sipping a glass of Tropicana orange juice and enjoying the crunchy goodness of Post Grape-nuts, that movies often abase themselves when they try to promote products in every scene. A movie without product overload would be as refreshing as a bottle of Natural Spring Ozarka water and as needed as Charmin toilet paper. Excuse me while I sip my Starbucks hot chocolate.

Really, though, when a pregnancy product is worth mentioning, I feel obligated to mention it. So, for those of you who know someone who is pregnant (or are pregnant yourselves), it's time to pull out your credit cards, go online, and give those Internet hackers one more time to steal your identity.

Bella Bands, pictured above, are by far one of the best pregnancy products I've used. Instead of using safety pins, rubber bands, duct tape, or whatever other inventive binder a pregnant woman has used to hold up/expand their pants, they should try Bella Bands. The idea is so simple, I wonder why these haven't been around longer. The bands are large enough to fold over to ensure a comfortable fit. They come in 4 sizes and different colors (Size 1: for women who have a pre-pregnancy pants size 0 - 8; Size 2: for pre-pregnancy pants size 10-14; Size 3: for pre-pregnancy pants size 16-22; Size 4: for pre-pregnancy pants size 24+). They're comfortable and will quickly become a much-used item for most MTBs. They're worn under your shirt and over your pants. When they peak out it's OK, because they look like camisoles. They're available online, so all you friends & significant others with a MTB in your life, go ahead and do her a good deed today!
