DS is 9 months old but I am still wearing maternity jeans. Blush

I'v lost most of my baby weight and am back to a 10/12 but every pair I try on seem to rub badly so i just kep pulling the super-comfy maternity jeans back on.

Please help! Do jeans that don't dig into cs scars exist? If so, where can I find them?

Thank you!

After 9 months you should not feel your scar - in fact mine was kind of numb. Have you had it checked?

I wore denim jeggings straight after DS. Get some decent ones (not nec. expensive just heavyiish weight material) and they will look like jeans but have the elastic waist which really helps!
If your scar is still hurting at 9 months though maybe check in with GP? I was back in jeans definitely by 3 months without much scar irritation

It doesn't hurt normally (as you say, more a numbness) but when i wear jeans, or certain pants with a waistband in the 'wrong' place it feels really tender.

I have DP jeggings that were great for a few months, but have now gone saggy. Any other brands you can recommend?

Next do a highwaisted bootcut jean which should do the trick. They're around £26 but if you get one of their flyers (in store) to sign you up for email, then you'll get £10 off.

It's completely normal for scars of any sort to be tender for a long while, scar tissue can stay tender for years.

Sorry - no help with the jeans!
