Hey everyone I haven't been around for a little bit because I am pregnant! I am super excited and counting down the weeks until the little angel arrives. This might be the wrong spot for this but does anyone on here know where I can find plus size maternity jeans? I am having a heck of a time finding anything over a 22/24 and I need a 26/28 or 28/30. I have thick legs and don't want leggings!!!!

Thank you so much! I will continue with my walking while I am pregnant and watch what I eat. Since I am carrying so much extra weight I really shouldn't need to gain any weight with this pregnancy. I think I gained 10-15 pounds with my son and that was all within my last two months. So far everything is going great!!!!

Aw, congratulations AmbieP!

I was 300+ when I had my son, and the lack of plus sized maternity clothes really ticked me off. I didn't get to wear them, I had to just buy even larger sizes and make sure everthing was elastic. Ah, the joys of a plus sized pregnancy.

Someone with some clothing talent needs to design plus sized maternity wear!! I can get away with bigger shirts but I need pants! I would really like a couple of pairs of jeans!

I was 300+ when I had my kids as well. JCPenney and Sears in the US both had plus size maternity. I did better with just regular plus size elastic waist straight leg yoga/comfy pants. Good luck with everything and congrats!!

Congrats! Are you crafty? Maybe something like this would work for you? You can modify your favorite brand! Of course, it doesn't have to be a t-shirt on top, - you can find a lot of great comfy AND stretchy fabrics at any fabric store.

Congrats!

For clothes you might want to try One Stop Plus, it lists a bunch of different stores like Roamans and Woman Within and others, all on one website. I searched there on "maternity" and found quite a few things that were pretty cute. Good luck!
