It's for later pregnancy to hold your pants up when they're unbuttoned, but I caved and bought one at 5 weeks. It was like heaven. I was literally so bloated that I couldn't wear my pantson, so I used my belly band and a loose top or wore a lot of dresses. I started to be able to wear clothes comfortably and without much bloat again around 8 weeks. So there is hope.
