Knickers!

My knickers are driving me mad! I’m 28 weeks pregnant and due to the shape of my bump, they roll down at the front constantly! I could buy smaller knickers to sit lower, but then they wouldn’t fit over my bum! And I can’t imagine anywhere makes knickers that sit as low as they roll down to as they wouldn’t even cover my bum crack at the back! I’m wearing normal, boring cotton bikini briefs, a size bigger than I wore non pregnant.

Am I going to have to give up and buy huge over the bump pants? I don’t think I can deal with other that I’m the heat 😩

Believe me bigger knickers are so comfy. I've worn nothing else since the birth of my DD 2 years ago lol. I've had to buy even bigger ones recently and I'm almost 33 weeks. X

Usually I do wear big knickers! I love an M&S up to the bellybutton knicker! But I’m so short in the torso that to sit over my bump, knickers would actually have to touch my bra!

I had ones like this and they were so goddamn comfy. Really stretchy soft cotton. Still wearing them post pregnancy.

I’m only 15 weeks, but have already bought some over bump maternity knickers from mothercare and they are so comfy.

I'm generally a size 12/14 pre pregnancy, I'm 38 weeks in and have a size 18 pair of black cotton knickers on...... they are my fav! Haha my boyfriend said they are the most ugly looking pants ever.... oh well! Soooooo comfy

Come right over my bump... with extra room for when I eat loads....

I love my big knickers from tesco. They are ridiculously comfortable and no awkward rolling down. They are just standard cotton full briefs but I bought them in every colour. In never giving them up. Lol.

I've gone back to wearing my pre-pregnancy slightly too small M&S briefs. They sit under my bump and just cover my bum. I have some over bump pants but actually find them more uncomfortable. Guess you've got to try some cheapies and see what's comfy for you.

@RosieCotton mine are exactly the same from Tesco's! They are the best aren't they!

I honestly just buy full briefs from M&S, not maternity ones. They’re a size bigger than I usually wear and absolutely massive, definitely go over my bump.

Coming round to the idea of trying big knickers 😂

Has anyone tried anything like this:
