Next Pinstripe Maternity Trousers

They were about £22 and I thought "Bargain" - stretchy, goes right over your bump, and comfy.

Only problem is - they don't wash well... Been worn for 4 weeks or so, and washed about 4 times (not many trousers that fit, so unless they've been slimed or spilt on, they are worn!), and they are already going bobbly all over

Just a warning to anyone wanting them to last through a working pregnancy - I think they'll look quite manky quite quickly.

Their plain black wide-legged ones with the funny roll-over top are lovely though - very comfy, wash well, and look pretty smart. And only £16. Bargain!

Oooh might have to investigate - is it a top that goes over the bump or under? My mani problem with the under bump ones is that most of my tops are too short and I get a cold belly

It's a totally mad waistband - will see if I can find them on their website. It is definitely not under-bump - pulled right up it comes up to my chin!

Here, but not a good pic - the woman in the blue top is wearing them Black turn-top trousers, £16.99.

May be forced to have a spending spree - they have a HUGE cardigan on there too that you can snuggle round a bump nicely.

No way my coat will last all winter, and not really wanting to buy a new one for one year... Planning on layers

ohh i looked at buying the pinstripe ones thank god i never, if i was you i would take them back into next and let them see for themselves sure they will let you take them back

I just made a huuuuge order from next last night as i am now not fitting in my clothes at all and i am altering between 2 pairs of trousers and that is really getting me down so ordered lots me, problem is they arrive and they never fit properly always to big, to short or to small

Next is the one place I can normally trust to fit perfectly, and it seemed to continue with their maternity stuff.
