Petite maternity clothes?!

Do petite maternity trousers exist? I have managed to find some jeans woth a 30" leg, but no trousers, and I could do with some for work!

I'd prefer under bump, and ideally 28" leg so I do t have to wear heels Grin

Jojo Maman Bebe used to do a shorter length and I think Mamas and Papas did too. Probably closer to 30" than 28" though.

I definitely had some but not sure where from now - I think topshop gap and next do petite (or they did 5 years ago)

I'm 5'0 and got my petite maternity clothes from Next. I had to order them online and my youngest is 7 now so I don't know if they still do them though.

I really struggled with this, especially jeans etc. Asos now do a petite maternity range. Wish they had that when I was prego, would have saved all the weird rolled up jeans looks.

Thanks I'll take a look at the suggestions.

Next have some very funky petite trousers, but none suitable for work (or at least as a pear shaped 5'0 I'm not sure I could pull off culottes!)

I really struggled (5'1) and could only find jeans (topshop) to fit me. Fortunately my work was really casual so I could get away with alternating the jeans with a couple of dresses. A few of my favourite dresses weren't even maternity, just stretchy. I did also have a dress from Gap maternity that wasn't ridiculously long too. It was definitely a bit of a struggle to find clothes that fitted!

I got the Leah jean from Topshop, length was perfect (I'm 5'3" or 4"). I think they were 30". They are the only jeans I've ever bought that were the right length!

I bought petite maternity trousers and jeans online through Next. Worth checking of they still do them.

I also bought ordinary petite jeans in a couple of sizes bigger that were low waisted and fastened under my bump

I bought some lovely petite jeans on Amazon (28" leg), I also found some petite black trousers on funmum.com again 28"...both are perfect. I'm 5'3 with short legs.
