I am desperately trying to find some maternity jeans that actually stay up and don't start to look baggy as soon as I stand up and start walking. So far I've tried all the below and they all go baggy immediately.

I've seen madewell recommended, but I really don't want to pay $170 for a pair of jeans I am probably only going to wear for 2 months. I looked at Jcrew and Jcrew factory. Regular jcrew had no maternity jeans and jcrew factory didn't have my size and was final sale so I couldn't buy any to try and see if maybe they fit. I heard Abercrombie maternity jeans could be good, but was curious if anyone had actually worn them and had an opinion on them? Any other stores I should look at? Old Navy? I'll suck it up and buy the madewell if they really are that amazing because I need a pair of jeans, but I would really prefer to pay under $100. Honestly I'd prefer under $50, but I don't think that is going to happen. |

| Does old navy still make the rockstar in maternity? I never shop at ON generally but I lived in those jeans through all my pregnancies. |

2 weeks postpartum here. I had two pairs of Abercrombie jeans during this pregnancy. They did sag a bit, but they were my go-tos until the very end.
I also have a pair of Madewell jeans and did find that they stayed up better. I got them on sale and definitely did not pay $170 for them. That said, it’s getting warm outside - do you really need jeans? Can you just wear dresses? |

| There’s a reason the good jeans cost $170. Look on Poshmark. |

| They all sag to an extent. Are you really only going to wear them 2 months? With my last I wore them through the whole pregnancy and then a few months postpartum too. I splurged on the expensive ones from hatch and wear them several times a week to work starting around month 3-4 so it felt worth it to me. |

Definitely do not do Target/Old Navy/H&M - those sag a lot.
I will admit the Madewell ones are my favorite (and I invested in one pair since I was pregnant in the winter), but I also got a few pairs of the 1822 brand from Nordstrom (about $60 a pair) and they were nearly as good. I really liked the 1822 with the side panels vs. the over belly panel (I wore those as I was shrinking back down post pregnancy as well). |

These have been a winner for me: https://www.nordstrom.com/s/1822-denim-better-butter-slim-straight-leg-maternity-jeans-frida/7280227
Soft and don't fall off. I tried and disliked Old Navy and Target Jeans. |

+1 to madewell. Size down the run large |

| J brand. I got them as a gift and out of all the brands I tried, they were the only ones that looked and felt good. I would rather have one quality pair than 3 cheap pairs that I hate. |

I loved my Jessica Simpson maternity jeans. They held up over the course of 4 pregnancies. Not sure if she makes them anymore but I got a pair of poshmark. Try poshmark for the madewell jeans too!
Definitely don't buy target - they were awful. |

| Paige. You need to spend money or they’ll sag out and make you look frumpy, sadly. I tried GAP jean shorts, and they made me look horrible. |

| I liked J Brand, DL1961, and Paige maternity jeans. They are on the expensive side, however. |
