Tall pregnant women where the hell can I get a decent pair of jeans

Currently expecting ds2 and cannot find a decent pair of jeans or any clothes to fir

I've managed to get a pair of ASOS and that is it. I normally shop n the tall ranges at places and I'm sure when I was having DS1 more places had a tall/maternity crossover ranges (Topshop, next etc)

Feeling really fed up as having to send yet another pair of jeans back. Also noticed most shops that do a maternity range literally just do jeans in one leg length. Next do a long but at 31 inches it's not really that long.

So far I've tried ASOS, Topshop, Dorothy Perkins, very, river island, H&M, Next. I found some on Long Tall Sally but they were nearly £60!!!! Can anyone help?

Id definitely keep watching new look, I got 2 pairs of size 10 l34 from them over the weekend for something like £15/16 with the discount promo they did, probably a lot out of stock at the mo Like someone else has said.
What size are you OP? I also ordered 2 pairs of 12L34 in case the 10s weren’t true to size (they were) so they’ll be going back this week. If you happen to be a 12 you can buy them off me directly for what I paid if that helps 🤷‍♀️

@PutBabyInTheCorner

I'm 6ft. Wouldn't buy expensive maternity clothes, personally. I got jeans from New Look and H&M. eBay is a good place to try though.
We're the H&M ones long enough- I've looked on their website and they just seem to do one leg length

@JessicaPeach

I'm 5'10 and in h&m Jeans this time. Last time I wore tophop Leigh jeans but I'm too fat for those now!
Are you just getting the standard leg length ones? I'm 5'11 and normally a 36 inch leg

Have you tried Topshop online to see if they have any longer lengths available? That’s where I’ve got both of my pairs of maternity jeans. I’m a 32 inch leg but I’m sure they go up to 36.

I bought two pairs and had to send them back 😢 the 36" ones aren't in maternity anymore. I've seen new look has some in a 34" but they're skinny ones so can get away with being a bit on the short side

@SallyCinnamon3009 ah that’s a shame, but yeah if they’re skinny you can get away with them being ‘ankle grazer’ length. Plus now it’s boots season there won’t be a big gap between the top of your boots and your jeans anyway :)

Yes just one standard length from h&m, I find for skinnies they don't need to be as long as other styles but these are ok for me, my inside leg is usually about 35 and I normally buy 36 if there's a choice of lengths. Zara have done maternity every season in the past but typically seemed to have dropped it this year, they are always really long. You could try eBay too for a long tall sally bargain.

Huge huge thank you to everyone who suggested River Island!

Got a pair today and by getting the larger waist size they are long enough (or maybe I've just gone BUPA waist size in lockdown) probs one of the comfiest pairs of jeans I've ever owned so might try pick up some more for after baby is born in the normal sizes.
