Re: shopping

I hear you about finding petite maternity pants. Basically, I just order the ankle length off of Gap.com and love how they fit. My suggestion would be to get a size larger than you usually wear or if you are between two sizes, get the larger size. I bought my usual size 2 at about 13 weeks, and now at 24 weeks they are getting tight (but still wearable). Size 4 or 6 (depending on the cut) works best for me now.

Luckily, capris will be in soon and we can wear skirts more then too.

I'm 5'2" as well and had trouble finding pants. I ended up getting mine from Old Navy and oldnavy.com. I then had to get them hemmed and it worked out pretty well.

I had the same problem...nothing looked right on me. Everything looked huge. I just bought bigger sizes in regular clothes for the longest time.

Re: shopping

Try Destination maternity. They have short lengths.

So does Gap.

I ended up in stretchy pants for my first trimester.
