Másutt's past pants post and a long-ago picture of Poronty inspired me in the matter of suspenders. At 18 weeks, pants are causing more and more problems for me. So, after retrieving the picture and a night of replanning, I galloped into the first store by the meter, where I quickly bought 2 meters of rubber band, two clips and two adjusters matching the width of the rubber band. The whole thing cost no more than HUF 500. When I got home, I stood up for him and tried to compose the suspenders like the underarm holster often shown in American movies.

First I cut the rubber band in half. I threaded one end of both rubber bands through an adjuster and folded it back on the back side and sewed it down. I threaded the other end of the rubber band through the tweezers and back on the outside of the adjuster. I set the adjuster to a height of a few centimeters, so it will be possible to shorten and loosen it. Then came the pants test. I pinched both tweezers a few centimeters in front of the waist seam. After that, I used a little help, but in the last case it can be solved alone. I brought one of the rubber bands up to my shoulder, threw it over it, and crossed my back and brought it forward under my other arm. Here, at approximately the right length, I pinned it to the other rubber band a few centimeters below the armpit. You can then proceed in two ways. Either we pass the other ribbon over the shoulder and pin it down in the same way, or after marking with a pin where to sew on both ribbons, we take it apart again and measure the same length and height on the other ribbon. Finally, we sew the ribbon leading to the back behind the ribbon leading to the front, and knot it at the crossed point on the back (you definitely need a pair of helping hands here) and then sew it down there as well. It is not worth adjusting this seam either too high (because then it cuts in the armpit) or too low (then it pulls the shoulder a lot), you have to try a little to see who is comfortable and where.

With this solution - since the clips do not run in front of the chest, as in the traditional version, but on the side of the person, and there are no clips at the back (which would hinder the person during a quick wash cycle), it is not even visible under most clothes. Those who want to spice up their outfit with just that, can find the right one among the countless patterned and colored rubber bands, as well as colorful and metallic threads. In this case, I think that even the lack of a sewing machine should not discourage anyone, because these five stitches can be completed successfully even by hand.

By the way, I discovered another great advantage while using it; while wearing it, I involuntarily pull myself out and move my shoulders back, which means it is very good for my posture and my waist. If you are already in trouble with your maternity pants, I recommend you try them out, because they are available very quickly and are very easy to use!
