Baggy crotch in trousers

I've always had problems with trousers, have a massive butt and wide hips/huge thighs but a relatively small waist. Also I have pretty short legs (5'3 in total!) and am a curvy size 12/ 14 usually. I've been buying loads on vinted and everything comes and has a baggy or puffy crotch. I've looked it up and apparently I need something with a lower rise but then my ass is hanging out 😂

To add to the confusion I'm 5 months pregnant so currently around a size 16 but more seems to have gone to my thighs that stomach 🤦🏽‍♀️

Does anyone have any tips/brands/styles I should look for? I'd love to be able to go try things on and buy in shop but I'm very much on a vinted budget and even that's a push. Wish I could sew and fix thinks myself but that's not on the cards!

I will admit I'm also a millennial that's been stuck in skinny jeans but I'm desperate to find my way out...

I think Halara do something like this and m and s and next do hourglass jeans that have a small waist and larger hip. Honestly just trying on a ton is the answer
