Have you ever tried maternity Spanx? Was it worth it? Did it smooth your bump and other chubby areas? I have to wear a tight dress on Saturday and I am not looking forward to it!

Get them! I love them! I never really wore spanx prior to pregnancy, so I was a little put off by the almost $40 price tag but wanted to wear a tight dress to my shower and I didn't want to have panty lines. I am so glad I bought them! They make me feel so much better and I wear them pretty often just to feel "tighter."

Yes! Love them. They smooth everything out but don't compress anything.

The few times I needed them I just wore my regular, non-maternity spanx. The last time was at 34 weeks for a wedding and they fit fine.

I'm a fan of mine. Just wore them last weekend to a wedding. My belly wasn't compressed, but they smoothed out other areas and just made me more comfortable in general. I'm 29 weeks and the thought of trying to get in to my pre-preg spanx is truly terrifying. Good on ya, Chelsearose!

I actually asked this myself a couple of weeks ago. No stores around me sold the actualy Spanx so I went to Motherhood and got maternity pantyhose. the definately smoothed everything out and were pretty comfortable. The pair I got cost $16 and for the one or two times I will wear them I thought that wasn't too bad.

I didn't like the actual Spanx brand so I'm returning them. The front panel was so cheap like a pair of drugstore pantyhose so they had runs in them. Not what I would expect from something costing $32 each!

@MUI831: That stinks! Mine aren't actual Spanx brand. I think I got mine at Motherhood

The fabric is thick all over and no runs anywhere.
