Tall Preggos

PLEASE tell me where you are buying your pants. I usually take longer lengths, but am realizing that the maternity stores don't carry that! I have been to the Gap, but is there anywhere else that makes them longer?

Thanks!

Re: Tall Preggos

I have really long legs (36 inseam) and have had a hell of a time. I actually ordered online from the gap and only 1 pair of jeans was long enough. I know JCPEnney carries tall (only up to 33 or 34 inseam). I also ordered pants from Mom's Maternity online but they didnt fit me right, you may have better luck with them. I know Old Navy has tall although again not tall enough for me. I did go to Mimim Maternity the other day and suprisingly found 2 pants that I am tking to the tailor to unhem and they will be long enough. Try there too. Good luck. Oh I also got a lot of knee length skirts to wear.

Wow... you must be taller than me! Thanks for the info... I am usually fine with a 34 inch inseam, so I'll be sure to check out some of those places you mentioned. I was thinking about wearing skirts too, the only problem with that is the shoes.. I never want to wear heels and feel funny in my other shoes with skirts! If I find any longer ones out there, I'll let you know!

Re: Tall Preggos

I always had to buy longer jeans, etc. and being pregnant I actually found Old Navy's jeans/pants to be TOO long so you can give that a try!

Re: Tall Preggos

I am about 5'10", but long legs. My favorite jeans are from Old Navy. I bought them pre-preggo and also bought the Maternity Long.
I also bought pants from JCPenney. IMO - They are not the most comfy pants, but they are definitely long.
I have also bought GAP maternity pants but I only buy them from eBay. They are MUCH cheaper on eBay than buying them in the store. I spend around $20 for pants that run $68.

Re: Tall Preggos

HI GIRLS! I can totally reltae- i also wear between a 34 and 36 " inseam and thank god I was preggers for the summer - lots of skirts! I couldn't find pants I like anywhere - I did buy one pair of gap one but find I can NEVER put them in the dryer (same as with the reg size ones for me) or they shrink....so I dry clean them or hang them to dry!

good luck!
