    Are you seriously an 18-22 on bottom??? I can't believe that Are you sure? You've been looking pretty fine these days

    Have you tried Ripe for work clothes? I got my work pants from there but I don't know about sizes sorry

    Not much help here. Apart from I hope a little ego boost

    Check out Autograph. It does depend on the style at the time, but through both of my pregnancies, most of my "maternity" clothes came from there. Honestly I had the best jeans (bought too big when I was bigger), worked so well as maternity, just needed a band over the top right near the end.

    OP. Thanks hon!

    No, not 100% on sizes but I am wearing a size 18 Ponte pant from autograph for work at the moment. I think my jeans from there are a 20. I couldn't face the humiliation of going into a mainstream shop and not fitting into anything. And I only want to make the one lot of purchases. I don't want to have to buy bigger in a few months. And given how much weight I've already put on... I weighed at work today and have put on 5Kg already. DEVASTATING!!!!!

    EDIT: I am wearing their jeans now Astrid. Thanks for the tip. The bum and leg fit fine but the tummy is getting uncomfortable. I have a pair of leggings from there which are super comfy but I only wear under a dress...
