maternity clothes for tall, thin girls

Does anyone have suggestions for affordable maternity clothes for tall, thin girls? I'm 5'11", 137 lbs pre-pregnacy and usually wear a 2 or 4 long in pants and smalls in tops. I've read the reviews on long pants from Old Navy and they're not that great. And I can't tell if the reviewer would have the same fits concerns as I do...any advice?

    Check out Motherhood. I struggle to find pants that are long enough for me and theirs were actually a bit too long. It may be perfect for you. The only thing is that everything including their pants just run in XS, S, M, L, etc and not 2,4,6, etc.

    I had decent luck with tops, pants, and dresses that were long enough (I am 6ft and 150) Gap and Pea in the Pod.

    I found that the following brands run short in pants,dresses, and  tops....Motherhood Maternity, Target, and Old Navy. Also Old Navy's stuff tends to run large...you don't get any extra material for length only for width.

    I ended up not buying a lot of maternity clothes. In most cases I just went up a size in my favorites which was really helpful postpartum....I didn't have to buy a new wardrobe and it felt good to not be wearing maternity clothes.

    Nordstrom just started carrying maternity online. Yay. Free shipping and free returns. Paige denim maternity and more. This is my 3rd pregnancy and I refuse to wear the saggy miserable pants I wore before. I have a similar body type, and the cheaper pants from Gap and Old Navy fell down all damn day. This time I'm going for fewer, higher quality pants. Tops are much easier, I do like Gap Maternity for comfortable layering pieces.
