Go ahead and buy one pair of maternity jeans if that’s what you’ll think you are comfortable in. I had an amazing pair of maternity jeans that were low rise with stretchy fabric only at the top two inches or so. I wore them (even though I somewhat fit into my Prue-pregnancy jeans) for two months after giving birth. It got to the point where they were really falling off me, but I didn’t stop wearing them till my best friend & my sister both told me to.
So, wear your comfy jeans and ask a friend if they look ok.

Why are you still wearing maternity clothes? its really not necessary…yeah, your not going to be able to fit into your old clothes yet, but I just wore bigger sizes or some stretchy stuff. especially if you are considering buying something, try some different syles/sizes on till you find something that works.

2-3 weeks unless you had multiples. I’d just buy normal (not maternity pants) pants and you can get rid of them once you are fitting into your normal clothing. If it takes longer, at least you have something that doesn’t have holes!

Some wear them for at least a month after birth. But I know women that continue to wear them much longer because they have either gained weight or they feel comfortable

I didn’t after delivery, I usually purchased a couple pair of jeans in that not ready for maternity pants, but nothing fits stage. I usually wore those until mine fit right again. I wouldn’t buy another pair of maternity jeans, just buy a pair you can fit in comfortably and maybe a pair of sweatpants to wear around the house. Good luck!

I hated maternity clothes; got back to the regular stuff as soon as I could!

Fortunately I was able to stop wearing my maternity pants after I had my baby. You don’t have to get another pair unless they are comfortable for you.Otherwise just get regular jeans.Which ever is more comfortable.It’s normal for women to still have to wear their maternity pants after having a little one.

Regular jeans should fit fine by now…at most you may need a size larger.
