Hi all.

Im 12 weeks tomorrow and once (if) i have had the 'ok' from my 12 week scan on Monday, the first thing i need to buy is maternity jeans.... a hair bobble is just not enough!

Im pretty tall, 5"10... mostly all leg! Can you recommend maternity jeans for tall people and where i could get them please?

Thanks Smile

I am 5"9 and find the New Look jeans fit me very well. Do not go for Asda/George, they are much too short!

I agree on the new look front. Their maternity jeggings go up to a leg length of 34 inch, which at 5’11’’ is my minimum haha

Another vote for new look!

Or I should add Asos do tall maternity leggings which I’m basically living in at the mo!

H&M ones are exactly the right length for me (I'm also 5'10)

New look it is then! I have a H&M and popped in the other week but it was so messy, it put me off looking.

I lived in leggings with my first pregnancy, but not feeling them this time round, my body shape has changed since DS and i would look horrendous in leggings!

I will start shopping on Monday then!

Thanks Smile

I ordered next, river island, and boohoo. All no good. Sent back. The waistbands are cut very very low and the belly bands make up most of the jean do you can see it with everything.

Topshop do maternity jeans in a longer length. Jamies are the best ones. Would avoid H&M as all the pairs I’ve had have eventually ripped around the seam of the bump band.
