New Pants Phase

Well, the time came where hair-tying my jeans closed by the button wasn't good enough! So I went and got the real thing - Maternity pants. They had this cute wrap around pillow that you could strap on to make sure the elastic would still fit when your bump REALLY comes in. Made the whole thing way less stressful!

Maternity pants are the best lol. I had a low elastic band pair of jeans that I wore foreverrrrr after pregnancy and birth haha! So comfy! And I love that we both hair tied our pants in the beginning 😂✊🏼

I never seen that pillow before. So freaking smart.

I did the hair tye trick for so long 😂 I lost weight during my pregnancy so my jeans would still fit but then finally had to get maternity pants lol leggings were my best friend

Same! Stuck with hair ties until Oct I believe (was due second week of Dec) and when I finally gave in to buying maternity pants, I literally just ended up opting for motherhood maternity leggings instead lol. Almost two months PP and still wearing them 😂😂

Loved.my pants!! Wore them postpartum til they were literally falling off🤣

Omg how smart!!! What store did you find them?

Thank you Alison!😎

I went to motherhood maternity, theres one in summit mall, akron ohio

I could never keep my maternity jeans up! I had to use my support band as a belt. Leggings or a skirt were my best friends.

I'm finding that it depends on the thickness of the elastic part. I have some pants that stay up really well and others that sag the second I start moving. Having a crotch that hangs down by your knees is trendy, right? 🤦

Yes! I found any jeans were too heavy and fell down!

My son is almost eight months and I wear my maternity jeans and a loose shirt when I want to eat out 😂

where did you get that pillow at? I have never seen it and I have 3 little ones lol

Where did you get them from?

I wish I had a pillow like that when looking for maternity jeans! I've gone through 3 pairs now. I gave up and just have my 2 pairs of maternity leggings. Now THOSE are comfortable!

Even after giving birth I’m still only fitting in leggings! Must be only thing I’ve worn for over a year 😂

Yeah I plan on buying yoga pants and leggings. Maternity clothes are a waste in my opinion

I couldn’t even fit it my leggings at the end. Could barely squeeze into my maternity wear either.

I go thru 3+ pair of maternity pants every time but my 1 pair of Lularoe leggings lasted the entire 9 months plus!!! I'll never buy another pair of maternity pants. Plus now I can wear them not pregnant!

The pillow is +4 months from where you are. I worked there for 4 years. 🙌🏻 And the clothes are AMAZING. I bought clothes there before I got pregnant, and they went through pregnancy with me, and they’re still good to wear wherever and whenever I’m havin a lazy day. So I know they’ll last for you too. I’ll 100% vouch for them. And if anything happens to your pants, tell them n I wanna say like 80% of the time you’ll get an exchange in the very least, or store credit.

I got a few pairs of pants from old navy that were ok but not great. The loft has maternity clothes now and they are much better quality! I just wish I would face discovered them earlier in my pregnancy!

Girl! After you have your little one you will STILL love these things! Leggings and maternity pants are my go to now that I’m on my second pregnancy, plus I have two little ones. My maternity pants fit me with my twins and some of them STILL fit me!

H&M Maternity has the best jeans! They were great throughout my pregnancy 😊
