Where to wear pants during pregnancy?

Question

My belly is showing now and my normal jeans dont fit at the waist anymore. Confused where exactly to wear them, above ya below the bump? Whatever i do it feels uncomfy. How do u all manage this.

I am currently struggling with this too! I try wearing them below my bump but they keep sliding down. Do you guys prefer the over-the-belly maternity pants or just loose pyjamas?

I remember crying because none of my normal pants fit me anymore around 20 weeks. Don't worry, just switch to loose maternity leggings and wear them over the bump for that snug, secure feeling.

Same here, over-the-bump maternity leggings are super comfortable and dont slip down.

Don't restrict your tummy with tight bands, dear. Go for soft cotton pajamas or over-the-bump pants that stretch easily, comfort should be your number one priority right now.

Honestly, by month 7, I gave up on pants entirely and lived in my husbands boxer shorts and loose nightgowns! But if you must wear them, high-waisted maternity leggings pulled over the bump are a lifesaver.

I found wearing maternity pants below the bump much more comfortable, especially when going for my regular thyroid checkups. Just make sure nothing presses too tightly on your belly.
