Best maternity skinny jeans?!

Hellooo,

Looking for any recommendations for decent maternity skinny jeans? I usually wear Miss Selfridge or Topshop petite jeans. Do people find over or under bump more comfortable? Looking for just 1 or 2 black pairs, preferably some that are supportive & slimming Grin want to order some to try at home as I usually prefer to go try on in the shops! Sad
Thank you for any advice x

I really rate Gap. They look and fit just like normal jeans.

H & M for me. I bought my normal size, over bump skinny jeans in petite and they fit perfectly. Wish I’d tried there when pregnant with DS 4 years before.

I used Asda in my first pregnancy last year but being petite I think they'd be too big on you (very generous sizing especially on maternity stuff).
This time round I've discovered Dorothy Perkins maternity and found their jeans are way better fitted and look smarter, just be aware that some pairs have a fake button on the front which completely ruins your nice round bump! So zoom in on the pictures before ordering!

Also, I LOVED my under bump jeans first time round, helped avoiding itchy belly skin and hot flushes massively. I vowed never to wear a pair of normal jeans again. But then had a c section and am now destined to wear all knickers/jeans/trousers up to my arm pits.

I just bought the Alex jeans from Dorothy Perkins and they are amazing. Fitted to the leg but they’re quite stretchy so super comfortable

I would say depends on how far along you are. I have bought (and sent back) lots of pairs. I now have 2 pairs from ASOS which I really like - one under bump and one over. Up to about 26 weeks I preferred under bump but after I prefer over. I’m 30 weeks now and even still the over bump have a fair bit of room in them (all the styles I tried were the same) so for me they are only good for the last part of pregnancy. Definitely designed for a bigger bump
