maternity clothes...i already hate them!

im having such a difficult time finding them that FIT!!!! im very greatful that at 18w5d my regular clothes still fit and really arent too snug.. but some days when the babys laying in certain positions my pants are snug.

so i went out and bought a pair of motherhood secret fit jeans in a petite small since im only 5 foot. didnt bother to try them on since there was nothing smaller and i usually still have to cuff the petite pants.

well.. i get home put them on.. they are super short Chat Icon totally wearing high waters... but the absolute worse is that the legs are HUGE in width totally hanging off my booty (and theres meat there!) ... i could literally fit another person in there with me. Chat Icon Chat Icon

is there any other store to get pants in petite that arent more then 100 bucks for a pair of jeans?

i'm 5'4....these jeans are my STAPLE - i have 3 pairs! They drag a little bit - but if i wear the belly band thing my SIL got me - they don't drag at all!!!

they only have them in small on the website - but in the store - they go up to XXL...

They look really nice, unfortunaly the way this kid sits so damn low I can't wear anything with a low band because this baby kicks the crap out of it and me and it hurts. Chat Icon So im stuck wearing the big ole pront panel maternity pants. Chat Icon

Re: maternity clothes...i already hate them!

I'm not a fan of the Motherhood jeans. The Petite jeans are super short, they look so stupid.
I know alot of people don't want to spend the money on maternity clothes, but I think the more expensive clothes fit 100% better. Especially on someone who is petite. My favorite jeans where Mavi, Mimi Maternity and Gap. Mavi where my favorite and of course the most expensive. I didn't want to spend the money either, but broke down and bought a pair. I wore them a lot and definitely got my money worth.

Re: maternity clothes...i already hate them!

Buy what fits your legs and tush and have them henmmed if you need to - For the extra $7 it will cost you, it will be 100% worth it -

A lot of people like Gap's jeans - and Old Navy ........maybe try those before jumping to the $100+ category - but I agree, if you have to, I think it's worth it - You don't need 10 pairs of maternity jeans - KWIM?

I got jeans from JCPenney but they have a zipper & clasps. The band is low but it works for me. I need something with the zipper & clasps for jeans otherwise they just constantly fall down.

Re: maternity clothes...i already hate them!

I feel your pain! 4'11 here!

I bought 3 pair of pants this weekend from Destination Maternity - 2 were Pea in the Pod and the other was Mimi - all petitie. The length was good, but they were all waaaay too big. They may fit when I'm really big, but by then it'll be summer and I won't want to wear jeans. Unfortunately they were final sale - so I got them cheap, but can't return them. I ended up getting 2 other pair on super sale at Gap and they're pretty good. I have to have them hemmed, but I see them fitting pretty well in a few weeks. Until then its sweats or my old jeans with the Bella Band.

I may just cave and go for one pair of the pricey jeans just to have one thing I like and feel somewhat normal in.
