NDR: maternity jeans. short.

[Deleted]

Does anyone know where I can buy maternity jeans in short?
I can't seem to find them.

Motherhood had some, but I hate the way their jeans fit me in general. They're so saggy after an hour even 3 sizes too small..lol.

I need some new ones. My faves were American Stars but in my previous 2 pregnancies and being a handmedown from me SIL they're pretty faded and gross now. I can't find that brand anywhere anymore either.

The cheaper the better, but I will shell out a bit. 12 weeks in and I need them already..so I'll be wearing them awhile.

I like the ones without the high panel too, if that helps.

Oh yeah. I forgot about the Gap. They're usually great for short sizes too.
I might have to look at Old Navy too. I tend to drown in all of their pants though and I'm very avg. definitely not tiny...lol..but it's worth a look.

I loved my GAP Long and Lean full panel. They were just the right length for me and I'm 4'11"

If you would consider resale - check consignment shops (both those for adults as well as baby/children's resale shops as many carry maternity as well. You wear them for such a short time, they are usually in very good condition.  There is always Goodwill or Salvation Army outlets as well.)  Shop in the better/best neighborhoods and you will often find name brands as well as lots of items with the tags still on them.
Check e-bay and Craigslist as well.

I was going to say Gap too. I really liked their maternity jeans and I'm pretty short

I'd be all over this, if I lived in an area that decent resale/consignment/Goodwill but I don't.
It makes me sad. But I also live in an area with a population that really needs the handmedowns so I guess it's a worthwhile cause.

I'm 5'2" and wore GAP ankle jeans/pants and I loved them!

I think you're as short as me and I liked Old Navy's maternity full-panel jeans when I was pregnant with Baby W.

I am not short, but I liked gap's maternity jeans and they came in different lengths. (And the short should really be short - I am 5'9 but was surprised at how short the longs were.)

don't tell me this. i'm 6' with a 35-36" inseam. i was really hoping gap maternity would come through for me since nothing else i've found is long enough. 

looks like i might have to rely on tunics and leggings!

I am 5'11" and all leg too heygrey and got gap tall maternity pants about 6 years ago. I made due with them but I would have liked an extra inch or two of length. If you are anything like me finding pants that are long enough is a big obsession. But I don't know if they have changed that at all since then- as I am able to wear their normal jeans comfortably.

The past few years I have been able to get away with a "regular" 33" inseam in jeans if I'm wearing them with flats (my height is in my back). (Sidenote: I feel like regular used to be 31", so I needed a long.) My long maternity jeans from gap were probably 33.5 or 34, definitely not 35 or 36 like their non-maternity longs - those are definitely too long for me.

Maybe my pairs were cut shorter, I just looked online and a lot of the reviewers feel like they run long. 

FYI: the Liz Lange maternity tanks from Target run nice and long, I still wear mine not pregnant because they are thick and looooong. Also the Mossimo tanks are long and only $5 or $6, but they're not as thick. Benefit of being tall: I could wear quite a bit of my normal clothes well into the 20s.

Thanks for that reminder. I need to grab some new ones today. I had some, wore them to shreds, loved them.
It's also the perk of being short. I couldn't wear regular jeans too long, but I wore regular longer shirts/sweaters all the way to the end.
