Maternity jeans

[GemmeFatale]

Can someone advise on maternity jeans fit?

I picked up a cheap over bump pair from boohoo. The legs seem to fit fine but the crotch/hip area of the denim material is pretty loose and the butt isn’t as fitted as my normal jeans (probably pretty obviously). I’m only 18 weeks and only just starting to see a tiny bump, am I going to need all that space? The bump band section seems fine, fitted but plenty of bump space/stretch. I sort of assumed the denim bits would fit like normal jeans and the bump band would take the bump/all the changes?

Is this the best I can hope for or should I send them back?

In later stages you'll need the extra space in the hip area but as early as you are it isn't necessary. Your option are to buy jeans that fit now and you'll likely outgrow or put up with it!

Try underbump for the early part.

The ones I got from H&M fitted great around other areas but bump part was of course a bit loose but now at almost 30 weeks the pants fit perfect and bump part gives great support. The areas you mention should fit right it’s just the top bump section that should be loose if anything at 18 weeks. Probably best to return them & try them from somewhere else. I found I had similar issue with Asda George ones. Would highly recommend H&M ones.

Thanks both. As I suspected I need to think about returning these and trying again.

I blooming hate shopping so was hoping for a first time win.

I got some in the sale in mothercare for my DIL she chose them and said they were great

I recommend mamalicious over the bump jeans, you can order them in leg lengths too. They are very good quality.

Another recommendation for H&M! I loved mine!
