Anyone else never wear jeans/trousers etc?

I live in jumpsuits and dresses with tights. Have a collection of casual jumpsuits and dresses, and then for work I wear smarter dresses with tights.

I've never been a fan of jeans but had a couple of pairs that I've worn over the years. Since I've had a baby (now a toddler) I cannot bear anything cutting across my stomach. It makes me feel ill! I've switch to long baggy sleep T-shirts for pyjamas as I can't bear even the comfiest pyjama shorts or jogging bottoms. Even leggings are out now. Tights I like as they're pulled waaaaay up!

Does anyone else never ever wear trousers? I just cannot stand the feeling across my stomach.

Me.
I prefer to wear skirts (tights in winter). I wear dresses in summer when I don't have to wear tights.

I do wear trousers to the allotment and for really scruffy stuff, but it's taken me years to find decent ones that aren't annoying, and I wear braces to stop them pushing down on my hips.

I'm now a Scout Leader and everyone wears trousers, but I just can't. I made myself some special skirts, so I wear those, and still only wear the trousers when I'm doing scruffy work.

Yes! Practically all the way up and over my head.

Although I can't wear skirts. Again, it's the feeling across my stomach.

I hate the feeling of jeans. They dig in, the seams annoy me, they feel heavy and pinch at tops of thighs. I love dresses and skirts, especially long jumper dresses. I only like wide leg trousers that have stretch.
