Pants that finally fit!!

I have been having such a difficult time finding pants that fit me decently and are comfortable. Maternity pants are either too long for me or too big. I was in the strange in between stage where my regular pants barely button up and it was way too uncomfortable to button them up anyways OR maternity pants were a tad too big and fall off me. Well, I must have gotten big enough to fit into maternity pants and oh how comfy they are! It is so nice to have some pants that fit.

It was not an easy find. Some maternity pants are just plain ugly and sag around the butt. I am all about being comfortable but I don't want to look awful. I have always had an issue with pant length so that came as no surprise to me. The surprise was the small maternity sections in stores, which provided limited selection for a petite person. I am only 5' 1-1/2" tall and that 1/2" is very important to me (I think my driver's license says I'm 5' 2", shhhh!). So I was limited to shop online, which is not a problem, but I like to try clothes on before I buy them. So I ordered online from The Gap, Old Navy, and JCPenny, all which have short/petite length maternity pants. After ordering about 15 pairs of pants and several returns by mail and exchanges, I finally have a couple of pair of pants that I can live with for now. I hate to buy a ton of maternity clothes since I will only be in them for another 6 months, but I needed something to wear for work. Through my whole pregnancy so far, buying maternity pants has been my biggest obstacle. Who would have thought?
