Maternity pants

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I'm looking for maternity pants and I'm not sure what kind to get - demi panel, full panel, or no panel. I'm 5'10" so I also need longs, which seem to be hard to find in maternity wear. What type of panel do you ladies prefer?

    Check out Gap for their maternity selection. They do stock some of their pants in long. No preference yet on band style since I'm not big enough for them to fit right just yet. I have a pair of hidden waist and a few pairs of demi's. I want a pair of jeans with full panel but they don't have my size at gap.com. Guess we'll see which I like more as time progresses!

    I second the GAP.  I prefer the full panel.  I know some people complain about them going all the way up your belly but I've got a pair of demi panel pants and had to get new pants because they just started to get tight in the belly.  Which sucks because my co-worker was saying they looked saggy in the back.  If you don't like the full panel going all the way up you can fold it over until you get big enough to need it.

    I haven't had to buy any yet, but I am also tall (5'9") and I have had a lot of people suggest jcpenney's online to me. Supposedly they have quite a few styles in long. I have no personal preference on the panel type. (yet).

    i like the full panel! i'm opposite you in the length department (i'm 5'0") but love the secret fit belly jeans from motherhood maternity.  they seem to have more lengths/sizes than other stores i've checked too.  i'd try on the other panels and see what works for you! i decided i don't like anything other than the full panel because they have a tendency to roll down on me and i have to keep pulling them up.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml

    I've only tried the full panels so far, but I love them!

    I'm in love with the secret fit from Mother Hood. It's a full type panel but super stretchy and doesn't leave a line in your shirts like some of the other full panel pants do.

    I have a couple pairs of the no panel pants and HATE them now that my belly is popping, they are to tight around my tummy and super uncomfortable for me.
