Has anyone managed to find maternity jeans that actually stay up? I have a pair from Next that fall down every time I stand up and a pair from Blooming Marvellous that aren't much better. I certainly have a big enough bump to fill them - it's huge! The only way I have been able to keep them up is to wear a belt but I no longer have a long enough one and it's also not that comfortable.
 
I've got 2 pairs of maternity jeans - one from Dorothy Perkins and one from TopShop - they both fit quite well.
 
My pair from Dorothy Perkins are great, I also got a pair from Funmum but they don't really fit any more. I prefer the ones with the bit for the bump rather than the buttons at the side x
 
mine dont hyave buttons on them i got mine from peacocks. mine slip down but i just pull em up again. sometimes hold my shoulder bag against the jeans and they stay up
 
As a plus size gal anyways i buy all my stuff at evans and its all gorgeous and flatters my growing bump, but i struggled too with jeans which is why i wont wear them.
I do have a pair, but they are my normal size but with some elastic round the sides and they fit fine when i want to wear them.
 
I have a pair from FunMum - very comfy but I do need a belt. Maybe that's coz I don't have a bump yet! Just had to get some different clothes as i am so bloated and uncomfy by evening time. I also have a pair on the way from Isabella Oliver so I'll let you know what they're like :D
 
I found it difficult to find many over the bump jeans that I wanted to pay so much for, so I just went on ebay and got some elasticated waist Next maternity jeans that go under the bump.
 
I have exactly the same problem Clydesdaleclopper :( I think over the bump would stay up better on me but I find over bump really uncomfortable, and also belts dig in! I'm wondering whether to try a size smaller :think: :hug:
 
mine were from mothercare and they were brilliant
 
I have a pair from New Look which are under bump, with stretchy pocketcs. They stay up because they are made of very lightweight denim.

The normal denim is just too heavy to stay up in maternity jeans, no matter what style you choose, beleive me, I've also got a pair of heavier denim maternity jeans and they fall down all the time!!

Quick update - my jeans arrived from Isabella Oliver a few days ago. They are clearly made for very tall skinny women with a bump. I found the waist band was great, but there was absolutley no space for any growing of my thighs (am hoping they don't expand, but you never know!). So, i am sending them back in exchange for 2 tops and have ordered a pair of jeans from Seraphine instead. Will let you know what they are like when they arrive later this week ...
 
my next jeans fall down too! I bought some from New Look and they have an elastic thing inside that you can adjust the waist - better but they still fall down!
 
I was having this problem, under the bump tousers where just falling down every time i moved. Have you tried H&M they have over the bump jeans and tousers they are great.

here here!

I bought jeans, combats and shorts from H&M and Im not kidding, they are the best, well fitted bottoms I have!!

for some reason, Ive had to buy two sizes bigger than normal, but I dont care! Ive got my confidence back instead of having to wear trackie bottoms all the time!

H&M are great!

I got really nice ones in Asda and some from Dorothy Perkins.

The Dotty P ones were so comfy I was washing them at night so they were dry for the next day!!
