As one of the most comfortable clothing staples in everyone's wardrobe, saying goodbye to your favourite pair of jeans for nine months is unthinkable when you become pregnant.
Ingrid, who is six-months pregnant, says she misses her comfy pre-pregnancy jeans the most.
"Something I wasn't expecting [when I became pregnant] was that my hips completely changed shape," Ingrid says. "So not only was my belly increasing in size but so were my hips. And it meant my jeans were completely out of the question."
Most women find that once their body starts to change shape, normal jeans become too tight across the middle. The mindset is that pregnancy jeans are all unattractive with elastic waistbands and many women kiss goodbye to their favourites in favour of dresses and skirts.
Aussie favourite Just Jeans has just released maternity jeans into their stores. With three styles to choose from: skinny leg, straight leg and boot leg.
The jeans are cut so the front sits just below the belly, and with a front fly they will look just like you are wearing your normal jeans. What's more is these jeans are made of stretch denim and they have stretch panels on either side of the waistband, which you can adjust as your baby grows.
These maternity jeans are $89.95 and come in sizes eight to 16.
With these snazzy pants, there is no reason to feel uncomfortable wearing your favourite styles while waiting for your bundle of joy to arrive.
