If you are short and don't wear jeans....

What do you wear on your bottom half?

I live in jeans, very occasionally wear leggings.
I am short, 5ft 2, and I also have short legs in relation to the rest of me. My legs and thighs are thick, although I'm only a size 8/10.
I've always defaulted to jeans, but since having ds2 7 months ago my shape seems less and less suited to them and they give me a muffin top

Any alternative suggestions?

Try dresses.

Yep, you sound a lot like me, only I'm bigger than you unfortunately :(

I've switched to dresses. Okay, not quite as practical, but it avoids the cut in half stumpy look and I don't have to worry about coordinating.

I am very limited in dresses at the moment as I'm breastfeeding.

Plus I hate my legs!

Dressed with opaques or footless tights if wearing sandals.
Where I live that's very rarely too warm.
But when bfing I wore skinny jeans and longline tunic tops so no muffin issue.

Jeggings - I wear them with a tunic style top.
