I have to agree. I even try to avoid jeans that have those rub marks on them or "creases" around the top of the thigh. I don't really get it. I did buy some maternity shorts that had little rips in them but only because it is ridiculously hard to buy decent maternity clothes. I also wore my trackies a lot when I was pg for the same reason. But they didn't look too trackie like. They fooled my FIL anyway .
