I got this to hold up my pants which I insisted on wearing until I just could not. It however proved more useful to hide my popped belly button. I hated the look of my bb out ther and since I wore mostly close fitting tops this was just great. I also wore it under tops I wore pre pregnancy but which were too short over my belly. This worked as a second layer below my tees etc. Still have it and hope to use it again soon.
