As a first-time mama and self-confessed hater of in-person shopping, I spent many hours combing through the most easily accessible shopping resource around: Amazon. For the good and the bad, I found there are at least a few thousand items marketed at pregnant mamas. That includes dresses, pants, sweaters, nursing bras, and more.
Not only did I compare many choices online, but I also purchased and tried on many of these items. Few made the cut of actual “keepers,” with one item standing far above the rest as the most comfortable item of all.

A Love Letter
The winning item is this pair of black maternity pants. The material is exceptionally soft and stretchy without any uncomfortable seams or tight areas.
The black of course goes with almost everything, and the tailored, yet loose, fit was casual and stylish in many settings.
These paints also washed well without special care and never showed any signs of wear or pilling. To extend the wear even longer, I would consider hanging them to dry though, as the dryer seems to be the enemy of clothing longevity!
The magical pants held up so well that I was even able to hand them down to my sister-in-law who found them to be just as comfortable and easy to wear.

Pregnancy & Postpartum
I wore these pants day and night without issue. I wore them to travel. I wore them on moving day. I wore them any chance I got! They were comfortable all the way through the end of my pregnancy.
I even wore them into the early postpartum with continued comfort. It was a truly bittersweet day when my postpartum tummy could no longer hold these pants in place.
Sizing Notes
I am 5’9-5’10 and found these pants to be perfect length. With the tailored ankle, I feel these would be comfortable for mamas of a range of heights.
I typically go with an XL and found these pants to be true to size.
My only regret is that I never made the leap to purchase additional pairs or colors!
