maternity g strings

does anyone know where I can get some nice maternity g strings where the front of the knicker goes over the bump? I have some very uncomfortable ones from Mothercare and some moderately comfortable ones from Baby Jane but both of them the front goes under the bump and as I'm getting bigger they are getting more and more uncomfortable.
I dont feel ready though to have a VPL (visible pantie line) at the back to go with my VPL at the font (visible pregnancy lump).

I have had to give up my mat thongs sadly and hate hate hate the big pants! (is necessary however......erugh!)
I wasn't wearing specially designed mat thongs, just a size bigger that went under bump - and my current ones also go under bump - do they really stretch that far up?

I'm normally a size 8/10 and I bought the size 8/10 in Mothercare and the size 10/12 from Baby Jane but both of them seem to cut in particularly when I'm sitting down (people have commented that i'm carrying low so maybe that's why). I'll get the next size up and see if they're any better or if not I'll get myself to M&S and buy some much bigger size ordinary ones.

M&S used to do them 3 years ago......

Not a fan of the M/C ones either - the multipack one stitching comes undone plus the parts going over the hips are not the same width. Individual ones I found too tight.

I wear normal g-strings but usually the gusset part is further back than it should be.

I have also been known to er... wear DH shorts ;)and can have the same effect as french knickers for VPL

Am intrigued by a g string that goes over the bump! What, up to your chest? Wouldn't you look like Big Daddy? (Or Big Mummy I suppose)

G-strong OVER the bump? You'd be all trussed up like a chicken!

Go for a BIG BIG size - you ARE pregnant after all and I put on weight in all sorts of unexpected places.

Actually most of the time when I was pg I went knickerless. (This resulted in a truly awkward moment when I went to an osteopath for my bad back...)
