Jeans advice

[TheOriginalNutty]

I've always struggled with buying jeans as a short arse but now I have a new problem.

I'm 5'2 and a size 16/18 on top and 14/16 on bottom. My problem is I hold a lot of weight on my stomach due to menopause, 3 sections and 2 other lots of abdominal surgery.
However, immediately under my stomach where it's pulled in from the c sections is not as big so when I buy jeans I end up with them fitting around my belly but have a baggy fanny area 🤣.

I've tried a fair few pairs now and nothing seems to make any difference and they just look odd. If I size down I get camel toe and belly bulging over the top of jeans.

I probably notice it way more than anyone else would cos now I've seen it I look for it but help, I just want a nice fitting pair of jeans that I can dress up or down.

Might loose jeans tat sit on the natural waistlinework for you?

soething like this

something like this?

Jeggings?

or these - they look great but the site not so much

I have tried a couple of pairs like that @KirstenBlest but no joy. They weren't as bad as other styles though so maybe I just need to try more

Always seem to end up with cameltoe with jeggings @Frazzledd

Might maternity ones be better - the stretchy bit might be more comfortable over scars/

The scars don't hurt tbh bit I could give them a try

I was thinking more jeggings with a yoga pant waist really

or something like these but in jeggings

You could get someone vwho alters clothing to take in jeggings

these look promising

I was going to suggest M&S for the Jeggings, they're the best 'no camel toe' ones I've bought, really comfortable after c-section (slightly higher waist, good support around the middle)

Ah I've not tried M&S jeggings or leggings so will give those a go

Couldn't get the Lucy and yak link to work but have had a quick look on their site and seen a few bits I like lol

Try robell denim. Pull on and very comfy.

M&S high waisted stretchy jeans are absolutely fantastic!

I have a post c section tum and swear by per una slim and straight leg jeans, there are more generously cut in the tummy area but normal everywhere else

They were the Dana jeans.

I usually recommend M&S for jeans because they have lots of different styles and a good range of prices.

Elasticated waists are back in and some jeans are more like joggers now

I like the Dana ones @KirstenBlest 😊

I have got a pair from M&S which are ok but I don't love them

You could try men's jeans. You'll probably want to size up as the cut is different. The bonus is deep pockets.

Spanx Jeanish jeggings are pricey but worth it IMO

I was going to say back elastic waist style could work, i think next have some.
