So I decided to purchase some maternity jeans and work trousers so I can feel a bit more comfortable. I'm still going from days my trousers are big, to days they can't do up, so it's only bloat (I'm only 8w+5).
Having established no one stocks them, I opted to do a big next delivery to store in a variety of sizes, so I could try on and return the remainder immediately.
I think I am finally losing the plot!
I managed to get them delivered to a store with no changing rooms! I then get it all home - open it up and Id ordered one pair of work trousers and 9 - YES NINE! - pairs of jeans!!!!!
Seriously - what mental state was I in when I did that?!
On the plus side, work trousers fitted. Unfortunately Id ordered 5 pairs of jeans, four in two sizes, and the fifth in one size. You guessed it - the best ones were the ones that Id only got in one size - but I need the other size. Happy I found something though.
If anyone else starts looking - I cannot believe Ive had to go get them so early - the side panel next jeans are nice and look like 'real' jeans. The ones with an expandable band all the way round are more like joggers in jean material and look sack like. I had to go down a size to normal as they came up big. They have lots of adjustable bits inside though, as well as the elastic panels, so hopefully they'll last me for a good while. Main negative is the front pockets are all fake. No idea why. Quite annoying.
