I bought
these shorts a while back from Forever 21 and finally wore them yesterday. They work great as maternity shorts, you can fold over the waistband or pull it up like a Secret-Fit belly. And they're super cheap! I bought one size up from my pre-preg size.

Awesome!! thanks for the heads up. I've been looking for inexpensive shorts and not having any luck.

Funny how much those look like maternity shorts!
Just be aware that their return policy kind of sucks. You'd have to return by mail to get a refund, so you end up paying shipping twice on a $10 pair of shorts.
good to know! I guess I can just see if they have them in the store...excuse to go the mall this week!
I'm not sure about shrinkage, I haven't washed them yet. When I first put them on, I felt like I should have gotten a size bigger but they did seem to give a little after a couple hours (DH assured me that they looked fine and no, I didn't look fat). I'm usually a small too and got a medium.
Also for their return policy, you can return online orders to the store for store credit. I know I can always find something else to buy there. I've actually gotten quite a few long, stretchy tops that work well with the belly.
great to know! I think I might order some tonight and like you said, just take them to the store if they don't fit right, I can always get something else, they have a bunch of stretchy cotton dresses that are super cute! Thanks again for the PSA hun!
