Pants!

Please tell me what style of pants you find comfy during pregnancy?!

I usually buy M&S high legs which have a high-ish waist, they sit below my belly button. I went up a size to begin with, but now my bump is starting to get more pronounced (18 weeks) they just sort of ping down below it which isn't very comfy.

I've never really liked the feel of low-slung pants - they don't seem to cover my bum properly. Are those my best bet now, or should I go the massive granny pant route?

I'm 39w and still wear my pre-preg low-rise old faithfuls, same style same size same pants. The only pants I've purchased are the mahoosive up to your belly button pants for after giving birth. They look hideous and I'm so not looking forward to whipping those bad boys out!

This won’t help but when I was pregnant with my eldest 19 years ago I got thongs from Mothercare. They were the most comfortable knickers I’ve ever worn, I wore them for a long time after birth too!

Will give some low-rise styles a go, thanks!

I've got big old granny pants from primark, im 34 weeks and they are very comfortable though not for general flashing. On a side note they made my BFF laugh as she was helping with my washing yesterday and laughed as they were the only pants she'd folded 🤣

I got some pants that sit under my bump from Primark, think they were 'bikini style' They were £2 for 5 pairs.
