1st Trimester

New panties?

I'm only about 9 1/2 weeks, but I'm wearing maternity pants.  My regular pants still fit, but they're a little snug, and I'm just more comfortable in the maternity pants.

I thought about buying panties at Motherhood Maternity, but I didn't.  But now I'm finding my panties are falling down below my belly, and it's starting to bother me.

Has anyone bought the maternity panties?

Re: New panties?

  • I found with my first pregnancy that regular paties in the next size up worked just fine.

  • I bought some because I needed more panties that were low rise and the maternity ones were cheaper than the ones I usually get at VS. To be honest, my VS ones are much more comfortable and low enough for sure (I wear the low rise hipsters from the pink section).
  • I always wear the bikini cut and I wore the same size throughout my pregnany. And yes, my butt did get bigger.

  • No, they're just another ploy to make money.  Unless they're the ones that offer you incredible belly support - but if they're just panties, just buy the next size up, or get some that are already low rise so they don't fall.  
  • I got some maternity panties last time and I and liked them.

  • I struggled with this issue throughout my entire 1st pregnancy.  And I never found a solution.  Regular panties didn't fit right. The next size up just started falling under the belly too.  And maternity underwear??  Ugg....they are confining and uncomfy!

    I know I am no help....but if you find any that work well for you, let us all know!  GL! :0)

  • I got the motherhood maternity underwear and I really liked them. I got panties a size up but I preferred the fit of the maternity underwear (maybe because I carried really low). I got them on clearance, so they weren't too pricy.

  • Thanks for the replies everyone!  I'm sorry I didn't reply last night.  I crashed out pretty soon after I posted.  I was exhausted!
