Maternity pants blues....

in 2nd Trimester

I know everyone is probably sick of all the maternity clothes posts....but I am having such a hard time finding pants that actually fit!

Pre-pregnancy, I was wearing a solid 10....but when it comes to finding maternity pants, I hate that most of them are in S,M,L.  Some of the mediums fit fine now (others are waaay to tight)...but I have a feeling that they will be too small in a few months. The larges I feel like I am swimming in, esp in the legs/thighs.

Are there any places that sell maternity pants in *real* sizes?  I feel like I need a medium and a 1/2!

    The gap does "real" sizes.  And, they offer a variety of types, ie. full panel, demi, etc.

    So does some Old Navy pants.  I'm in a L (sz 14) and still wear a Be-Band to keep the elastic waist band up on my hips.

     Do you think they run true to size?  Our gap does not have a maternity section, actually, when I asked the sales guy he said most of the stores are discontinuing selling them, they will be online only.  I hate buying stuff without trying it on first.

    Someone on here suggested maternity leggings the other day and I got a pair from Target....they are SUPER comfy, but they are almost too thin, I wish they were a little thicker.

    I bought Gap pants just before getting pregnant....ordered some maternity in the same size and they are perfect.

    I have the hardest time with lengths. The gap makes longs, but their pants are STILL to wide in the hips/butt. Old Navy longs are ok. I don't know of any other (affordable) company that sells maternity jeans in long lengths. Boo. :(

    I second Gap and all the choices they have.  I have one pair of jeans from there however, I still prefer to wear my TR and big star pre-preg jeans.  I do love my mat. khakis that Gap mat.
