  • I bought some full panel jeans at Old Navy--short wasn't available so I got regular length and had them hemmed at a tailor.

    I've borrowed a good bit of maternity clothing from a fellow short friend, and there were several pairs of petite maternity pants from Motherhood, Duo (not sure where that brand is carried), etc. I am 5'4'' with short torso and longer legs, so I can get away with regular length sometimes too, but all the pants I got from her all seem to work, regular and petite. The full panel pants are mostly regular length rather than short or petite, but work with flats for me.

  • 4'11 1/2 here.

    Thyme Maternity has amazing clothes and petite sizes.  I have never had pants fit me so well, who knew I just needed to be pregnant?

    Good luck =)

  • All of my work pants came from Destination Maternity and I think they are the Motherhood brand.  They are full panel and I got the petite sizes.   I wear alot of heals so I actually got some tall petites as well but the petites regulars are a great length and I can only wear flats with them but I am 5'3".  I would recommend going to the store and trying them though because they have so many different pants and the pair my Mom purchased for me were awful, although the length I will say was good.  If you want I can look them up and send you the link.

  • I am 5'1 as well I am just doing the rubber band through the loop trick right now.I don't plan on buying any pants. As far as shorts I'm going a size up for summer. I would rec going on motherhood maternity they have a great selection of pants and shorts. I tried on a pair of full paneled shorts and they were comfy.

  • I am 5' and found the motherhood petite to be very petite - I can only wear them with flats. Old Navy petite is made for 5'3, I believe so they're a bit longer.
  • I'm in Texas, so I've been able to wear shorts and dresses already. I got a pair of maternity jeans from a friend who is four inches taller than me, since the weather's great I haven't bothered to hem them, I just fold them up into capris/pedal pushers. I think wearing capris actually makes me look taller, and distracts a bit from baby belly :) 

    Love Old Navy's maternity shorts - but mostly I'm just wearing a size or two up, I'm 5'2" and was in a size 1/XS before pregnancy, and while I've gained 22 lbs so far, I'm still not big enough to fit a lot of maternity clothes (with the exception of Old Navy's XS) The belly panel will be really loose, or the butt will be loose/not flattering. *sigh* ready to be done with maternity clothes, I hate maternity shopping, I want my body back and an adorable baby to buy clothes for.

  • Motherhood, the Indigo brand and Old Navy.  But I am SUPER crazy about how my jeans lay over my shoes, so I buy regular lenght and hem them myself.  I had to learn a long time ago because sometimes the short length just doesn't sit right.  I also buy full pannel because the mid or low one bothers me. Apparently Im a little crazy.. ;)

  • I got some good jeans at Motherhood and Gap.  I have not had luck anywhere with pants that are not jeans, other than leggings.  The ones I tried from Old Navy were GIGANTIC, even the smallest size, and I didn't really like the fabric either.  I'm mostly just sticking to skirts/dresses if I have to be less casual than jeans.
