Please help me find some post-baby jeans

I had my 2nd DC just under 4 months ago and I’m slowly starting to feel like me again. I’m still wearing my maternity jeans (which I’m constantly pulling up) and think it’s time to leave the elastic behind!

I really like the maternity jeans as I’m breastfeeding and I like the coverage they give to my stomach, they’re over the bump ones. So I think I’m after some high waisted normal jeans, any recommendations?

I’m 5ft5, really short legs and a size 18. I find ankle grazers more flattering than full length. I don’t want to spend too much as I’m hoping to lose my baby weight over the next year and be back at a 14. And a little bit of stretch would be great but so much they do baggy at the knee! Any miracle jeans out there?!

After my children I found some stretchy ones in next. They were really good because as I got smaller again I just tumble dried them and they got smaller

I’d just buy some new smaller maternity jeans. I’m not planning on buying any normal jeans ever again

I'm basically you! I have a 3.5 month old baby. I was a 14. I just bought these in an 18 and went and bought another pair because they're fantastic. High wasted. But of stretch and structure. Very much recommended
