Maternity jeans for bums as big as bumps!!

Not being a skinny girl (size 16) before pregnancy I have so far shunned jeans for leggings and dresses however with the weather turning colder and three months to go feel its necessary to go down the jean route - any reccomendations for maternity jeans with a roomy bottom?
Thank you!

I lived in a pair of over the bump Next jeans (£25) throughout my last pregnancy. They were soooooo comfortable.

I am also a size 16 with a rather large rear!

My bum has its own postcode. Can recommend Next under the bump. :)

Im an 18 and got the over the bump jeans from Next - very comfy and stretchy and only £25.

I got some over the bump ones from LaRedoute (or possibly Vertbaudet?!) and they're great - both the jeans bit and the stretchy panel have their own independent adjustable elastic so there's plenty of size variation. I'm a size 16/18 and 22 weeks and they're a bit roomy at the moment but they'll be fine when I get a bit bigger. Can't be doing with under the bump ones though as I have a bit of an overhang and they're just so uncomfortable and I find I'm constantly trying to hoik them up.

ooh just got a catalogue from Vertbaudet so will have a look there thanks. I have ordered under the bump but will have to see have been wearing over the bump support pants so they maybe ok with these otherwise may also have overhang problem. Wish someone would just make totally comfortable jeans that dont need to be pulled up constantly so unattractive - as if theres not enough to worry about without being constantly concerned about mooning people!

I'm with the others re the next over bump boot cut jeans and cut-offs. Don't so much struggle with the bum myself - more thunder thighs and they have been so comfortable. Now 39+3 and have been in them since 24 weeks.

Another vote here for Next jeans. Have lived in the before pregnant (size 14/16) and during pregnanct (size 16 so far...).

The bootcut seems to accommodate my ample buttocks :D

I love my Gap flared ones, super comfy and flattering...and my bum is massive. I saw loads of skinny ones when I was looking. Skinny jeans make me look like kermit the frog.

Mothercare over the bump ones here. Bootcut, so flattering for fat larger legs like mine are atm too.
