Best pants for pregnant after c section?

I'm 25 weeks pregnant with DC2 and struggling with knickers! I had a c section in 2014 and find anything under-the-bump aggravates my scar, but anything high or over-the-bump feels tight and uncomfortable too!

Has anyone found any wonderpants to combat this situation?!

I bought massive primark pants in a size up to what I normally have. Never been more comfortable!

Mothercare cesarean pants were amazing- huge and elasticated so they feel like they're holding you together. They are expensive at about £25 for 2 pairs, but worth every penny.... I'm still wearing mine for exercising 4 years later :)

I wore leggings and yoga pants throughout my entire second pregnancy

Sorry, just want to explain - I am pregnant now and find the pants I used post c section to be too constrictive around my growing bump. Ideally I'm looking for something looser, not something that holds me together! Will be hugely up for that after the birth though!

I normally hate big pants but I'm living in sainsburys full briefs, one size up from pre pregnancy. The ones they sell in a multi pack.
