need help with maternity close

Went shopping yesterday. Quite depressing. Pre preggo I was a size 10. I've gained 8-10 pounds and when I try on Large maternity pants they are too tight in the thigh and butt area and way way way too big in the belly (i'm 18 weeks). I bought these cute capri jeans at Kohls (i'm going to florida next week) that actually fit in the belly but when I sit down...let me tell you...Full Moon!

Maybe I need that bella band thing! (See previous post called 'well spent $16')

By the way...Kohls is having great sales but i didn't find any maternity close on sale....my jeans were $40. Target had decent prices.

Try OldNavy.com and gap.com. There jeans have a slight stretch to them. I bought a pair of jean capris at oldnavy last spring and lived in them all summer. I had the same problem with pants. Some larges were too tight in the thighs. I had to move up to an Xlarge. I wasn't a happy camper. Good Luck!
