? for PG ladies and Moms

I guess I am going to have to go and buy some new jeans bc I only have one pair that I can get into.  Should I buy regular jeans in a bigger size or should I try for maternity jeans?

  • Not PG, but I vote for maternity jeans.

  • Maternity, you'll need them soon enough and they're soooo much more comfy!

  • I'd skip ahead to maternity. That's what I did!

  • Where's the best place to get maternity jeans from?  Any brands you recommend or recommend I stay away from?

  • When I was newly pregnant, I got my first jeans from Burlington.  They have a maternity section and the jeans were cute, they didn't have the fully belly thing though.  So they didn't last the whole pregnancy.  But they fit so cute and were comfy!

    Other than that, I shopped Target and Motherhood a lot.  I LOOOOVED Motherhood's Secret Fit capris!  I wish I could still wear them.  Huh?

  • I would wait till your belly band comes in, it will stretch your jeans a lot further. I find that my maternity jeans aren't as comfortable until my bump has gotten harder. Also are you going to want to wear jeans this summer? If not there are less expensive options.
    Of course everyone is going to say something different, but I personally found leggings and dresses or tunics the MOST comfortable thing to wear until the bump got harder and bigger.

  • MZ, I will probably be leaning towards skirts or capris come summer time.  I have never been much of a dress girl.

  • I had a lot of luck with the Motherhood outlet store and Sears.
  • Ditto MT, I'd wait for the belly band and see if you can stretch your current jeans a little further.  Otherwise, definitely get maternity.

    I have had my full panel ones from Destination since Sept and they are great EXCEPT that they tend to not stay up and I am constantly tugging at them throughout the day.  I tried on some Long & Leans at Gap but I hated the under belly thing.  I would rather find a pair that actually stayed up but otherwise, the jeans have served me well and I recommend them.

  • I tried the bellyband and I hated it. It never stayed in place, but I think since I teach and move around all day long, that's the reason I didn't like the belly band. 

    I got my jean at Motherhood. They're the most comfortable jeans I've had. I love them. I get the full panel on all of my pants, I don't like the partial band, it is uncomfortable to me.
