    Question jeans??

    i really need a new pair of jeans that fit my new 'body shape'
    none of my pre-pregnancy jeans fit so i really need to purchase a couple of pairs for winter.
    the problem is...i now seem to have muffin tops...i'm a size 12-14 (size 10-12 before pg) but my weight is distributed a bit differently and i have a bit of 'hang over' with most pair of pants.
    can anyone suggest where i could buy jeans that cover/hide/eliminate muffins????

    Did you just get inside my head?????
    Man, what is with this new muffin top! I'm over it, NONE of my jeans fit except one pair. I was thinking of trying Jeans West, they seem to have such a range of fits, surely i can find something to contain the overflow.......
    Let me know how you go!

    Gracie, your hips might actually be wider now (I mean your pelvis might be bigger - not a plumpiness issue IYKWIM LOL). I'm not an expert but isn't a slightly higher waist line better for keeping the muffins down?

    You might want to look for a sightly highter waist.
    Esprit had some great jeans a while ago that were really muffin reducing and I also got a pair at sussan that don't create muffin.

    Yeah I'd try a higher waisted pair. They're in now anyway right? So hopefully not too hard to find. Maybe man-style, wider leg to give a long line too. Hope i make some sort of sense, I'm fak! :P

    I'll second Dachlostar & say SUSSAN!! I had the same problem & found that Sussan have slightly higher waisted jeans, they're kind of between hipsters & waisted jeans. They seem to suit a whole range of different shapes as well

    Good luck!
