Help! I already feel like my work dress pants are too tight. Where are we finding maternity clothes ladies? Tall needed. Thank you!

    With my first pregnancy, I ended up purchasing a lot (ie. One big bag) of maternity clothes off of Facebook marketplace. This gave me a good start of lots of various items and I was able to purchase specific additional needs as I went along. 

    Personally, I haven’t needed tall pants, but have heard from others that Old Navy was a decent option that actually had a good length options for those that need it. Hope this helps!

  • I'm so annoyed at the lack of options between my first in 2018 and nnow.i think I'm gonna take the route of FB marketplace as well. I hate shopping maternity online and then returning items that don't fit/look good. 
    I feel ya on the pants! Bloated as all get out right now!
  • I believe my first pregnancy I only bought pants honestly, a few long sleeves since it was wintertime and my fave pants were from Kohls. They were like our old school wide leg leggings, they had an underbelly v and i wish i still had them. I also hit up thrift stores like Savers and Salvation Army/goodwill. you can find great clothes hardly used since most only use them for the pregnancy "season" they're in! 
  • To be honest I didn’t like maternity pants, my belly did not get big enough.  I bought some pant extenders and an elastic belt and wore my normal pants all pregnancy and it worked well and was way cheaper. I did like pinkblush and kindred bravely because they had nice products that were good for maternity and would work for postpartum which got my wallet a lot better! 
  • It’s tough when your regular clothes start feeling too tight. For tall maternity options, I’ve had good luck at stores like ASOS and PinkBlush—they have a great selection of trendy maternity wear in taller sizes. You might also want to check out Loft and H&M—they often carry maternity pants with longer inseams. Just a heads-up, some brands run a little small, so make sure to size up if you're unsure.
  • I sized up at first but it didn’t last long. Ended up loving H&M’s maternity stuff, they have some stretchy work pants that aren’t terrible.

    I remember hitting that stage so fast too! For tall maternity options, I had the best luck online since stores near me barely carried anything beyond basics. I grabbed a few pairs of pants and flowy tops from Stylewe that actually worked for longer legs — and if you ever need help with sizing or returns, you can check their site for how to contact stylewe directly through customer service. Totally worth it to feel comfy and still look polished at work!
