Plus Size Moms-to-Be...

I'm haivng a really hard time finding maternity pants. Most days, I'm still in my bella band, which at 24 weeks, is getting old.

I found jeans and khakis, but stuff for work is harder. Lane Brynt has no sizes, and nothing at Old Navy fits...any other suggestions?

TIA!

I don't know how dressy you have to get for work, but I was able to find alot of work pants at Motherhood. We're business casual in my office so it wasn't too difficult to find appropriate pants.

I believe Gap.com has maternity pants up to size 20.

I lived in gap maternity during both pregnancies. Their t-shirts are also great and wash well. I actually still wear them, Chat Icon they are just a little longer than a reg t.

I like JC Penney online. It's so easy to return to the store if it doesn't work.
Motherhood pants aren't bad but they all seem too long and I am not a short woman at all.

This was my issue as well. It was extreamly frustrating, especially since I'm not impressed with the selections in JCPenny, etc... Since I'm going to be living in these pants for the next 4 months, I sucked it up, bought them and had them hemmed.

Dont know what size you ladies are but Im around a 16 and I found some nice work pants at motherhood maternity. I also like them because the pants come in petites.

I used Lane Bryant for my work pants last time - do you mean that they are out of sizes? I never had trouble finding black pants there in my size.

Motherhood maternity (I went to the store) I got some tops and jeans there that were good there too. They have a few pairs of pants - there are 1 or 2 that were okay but most the quality is pretty bad.

Old Navy is hard b.c they only carry the XXL online and you have to return online - I wouldn't think you would find much worth bothering there.

JC Penny's had a couple of things online - I got a nice dress from them with DD that worked really well.

When I had DD my job was business casual so I could get away with a nice pair of black pants and a blouse or sweater.

so far 90% of my stuff is from Motherhood. I find their stuff for work pretty good for the price.
