Black Work Pants?

[Yankees21]

Has anyone bought black pants that they really like? Looking through my closest last night I realized that was something I didn't have anything of, and it's starting to get cooler here. TIA!

I have Gap ones that I really like and Pea in the Pod ones (I can't remember the brand name). I got the Gap Demi panel but then realized as my belly got bigger that I hate the demi-panel, but that might be due to my short torso. (I'm taking up the short torso role with Swizz having an outside bump!) The Pea in the Pod ones are great too and feel like slightly better quality, but they were twice as much. I've also heard good things about Target and Old Navy maternity wear for work.

I have Gap full panel in black. I also got skinny black pants full panel at Motherhood Maternity. Both are super comfy!

Thanks! As another short torso girl, I'm going to try and find full panel or I'm sure I'd end up switching later on.

You're welcome!  I thought for sure I would be a demi-panel girl as I hate highwaisted stuff with a passion, but nope full panel all the way!  Make sure you try things on and then sit down in them.  That was my biggest mistake as the demi-panel is great when I'm standing but folds over when I sit. No bueno!

I must have the same ones, because I hate them with a passion.

I am another short torso girl and I HATE the full panel. I remember thinking I'd like it better when I was pg with ds and I could not stand the panel. I much preferred the demi-panel all the way up until I delivered. Part of that is because I have a tendency to get heat rash and that panel just made me hot and made me get a heat rash on my belly and that drove me nuts. I think it is a personal preference thing, so I'd try a pair of each and see what you like best.

I am only 9.5 weeks right now, but the bloat is killing me so I got the Gap demi-panel ones and LOVE them.

[Yankees21]

I just ordered the Gap full panel, so I will see how they work! I'm glad you like the demi-panel ones formerlyak, I will try those next if I don't like these

[simpsongal]

I just ordered two pairs of Gap demi panel trousers. I'll let you know how they work out

As for demi vs full - Having tight things on my belly doesn't feel good now, so I figure it won't feel good later.

I have the demi panel ones from GAP too. I loved them for the first half of pregnancy and now despise them. I am actually wearing them today and cannot wait to get home and change out of them. The panel is just too tight around my belly and folds over and gets all bunched up when I sit down. I ordered some full panel ones from Motherhood Maternity so hopefully those work out. I also have a short torso FWIW.

[sookie]

Mine are from Motherhood.

Just ordered a demi and a full panel! I wanted to order jeans too, but I missed out. I had a 40% off code that was only good yesterday and jeans are excluded from the 35% off deal today. Boo.

Oh man! I hate that it seems like jeans are always excluded from the deals.

I got some I like from Babys r us which recently started carrying maternity clothes.

My SIL recommended the GAP demi panel black pants to me. She is taller like I am but said she lived in those through her pregnancy last winter and were much more comfortable than anything else she could find. I haven't actually tried them myself though.

If there is a Gap maternity near you, check out their clearance rack for jeans. I got a pair for $13!
