I decided this weekend to go shopping for some maternity pants so that I wouldn't wake up one morning and not be able to zip up my pants. First stop Motherhood Maternity. Yikes - was not prepared for those huge panels, and how far down on the crotch they go. So much for wearing my normal shirts with those! And the sizing being S, M, L. I wasn't really a fan of that. I decided not to be anything there with their sucky return policy.
I tried Gap next, and had better luck there. I got a couple pairs of the panel-less variety. I tried one pair out yesterday, but I'm not sure that was such a good idea. I had to keep pulling them up. Maybe I'll stick with my tight jeans for a while longer.
Where do you have the best luck shopping?

I lucked out with my daughter (born 01-04-08) and was able to wear my normal jeans throughout my entire pregnancy. I carried her really high, and bought really low rise jeans. This time around I am carrying SO LOW, my jeans are already getting tight and I am only 19 weeks! I went to ROSS and they had some really cute stuff. It's kind of a hit and miss with them, sometimes they have a lot and others they have nothing so you have to check back frequently, but when they have cute stuff it's cheap and usually name brand. Also Target had some surprisingly cute things my best friend is itty bitty and has got all her prego clothes there. Maybe that can help you out a little? Old Navy also has cute maternity stuff but most of it is online. They have really good sales sometimes though.
Hope this helps you some! Toni Lynne
