These jeans are the first and only pair of maternity jeans I’ve found that fit my short, thick legs (5’0). I have bigger legs thanks to genetics, sports, and weight lifting which makes it hard to find jeans that fit. These were a last ditch effort and they were definitely worth the investment. My only frustration is that the elastic in the expandable waist sections has been coming apart since the first wear. I’m not sure how long these will last for that reason, but I like them for now. I’d buy a darker blue jean if that was available, despite my concerns with the elastic area.
