Maternity Bottoms

Our maternity bottoms collection includes over-bump and under-bump jeans, high-waist leggings, stretch pants for work and casual wear, flowy skirts in mini, midi, and maxi lengths, activewear shorts and yoga pants, and joggers for lounging. All styles feature elastic waistbands or belly panels designed to accommodate your bump comfortably at every stage of pregnancy.

Over-bump maternity bottoms feature a full-panel waistband that extends over and above your belly, providing support and coverage throughout pregnancy. They are especially popular in the second and third trimester when bump support becomes more important. Under-bump styles sit below your belly with a lower, stretchy waistband that does not cover the bump — these feel more like regular waistbands and are preferred by people who find over-bump panels uncomfortable or too warm. Both styles are equally popular and the best choice depends on personal preference.

Most people switch to maternity bottoms between weeks 12 and 20, when regular waistbands start to feel uncomfortable or leave marks on the belly. However, maternity leggings and joggers are comfortable from the very beginning of pregnancy, so many people switch earlier simply for the added comfort. If your regular pants still fit but feel tight at the waist, a belly band is a helpful transitional option before switching to full maternity bottoms.

Yes, plus size maternity bottoms are available throughout our collection in sizes 2XL to 5XL. Our plus size styles include over-bump and under-bump jeans, high-waist leggings, and stretch pants with wide elastic waistbands that sit comfortably over your bump. If you are between sizes, sizing up gives more room across the belly and hips, which is especially important in the second and third trimester.

Yes, many maternity bottoms work well in the postpartum period, particularly high-waist leggings and wide-waistband styles that provide gentle compression and support for your belly as it recovers. Maternity joggers and stretch pants are also popular postpartum choices because of their comfort and ease of wear during recovery. Over-bump styles tend to work better than under-bump styles postpartum as they provide more coverage and support during the early weeks after delivery.
