Does anyone have a good running shorts recommendation?

in 2nd Trimester

 Mine are getting a little snug now, and I'm either going to have to buy some non-maternity running shorts in a bigger size, or find some maternity shorts. 

In my last pregnancy, I just wore H's shorts to work out.  But I'd really like some that I don't have to worry about the drawstring giving way and them ending up around my ankles.

Anyone have a brand they like?

    I love Umbros! I wore them in high school (they are a soccer short!)

    They aren't as long as regular men's shorts either, if you get them in a bigger size, and they are lighter too.

    We used to wear Umbros for tennis.  That brings me back to high school and college.  They were so cool back then LOL!  With those stripey Adidas slide sandals.

    I really like the Nike shorts to run in, so maybe I'll just get a few of those in a size or two bigger.

    I usually buy Nike shorts, they fit me the best.  I have not found any in maternity so I bought 3 pairs in larger sizes.  I was wearing a med before getting pregnant and I purchased 3 pairs in extra large.  They are still pretty big on me but I did not want to have to purchase again when I grow even more.

    I wish you luck. I'm still wearing two pairs of shorts I have, but my thighs have started to rub together. I got these hug a$$ ones from Old Navy that i'm not sure I'll everwear. i think they are too big...well, if I have an 11lb-er than maybe!

    Oh, this is very helpful, thanks!  I was trying to figure out how many sizes to go up without actually having to schlep over to the Nike store.

    Good question...I'm still wearing my pre-preg work out shorts and just wear them below the belly.  It's starting to get a little bit uncomfortable though.

    hmm..running shorts, no.

    But I could offer some recommendations on the best pants to lay on the couch and watch TV in.

    If you're interested.
