    I'm over 7 wks pregnant and finding my jeans starting to feel very tight now, i have searched the internet for plus sized jeans but the only sites i can find are in america!! does anyone know of any Irish/UK based sites who specialise in plus size maternity?

    depends on what you mean by plus sizes, but red herring in debenhams stock upto an 18 and their sizes are generous, so do H&M.
    I am normally a 16/18 and this pg found that i was able to wear my normal jeans until 6mths as i did not gain too much weight, whne i needed more room i used waist expanders and belly bands and went up a size in tops.
    belly belt and
    like these
    congrats and enjoy.

    Hi Lynski, thanks for the response, unfortunately i'm more a 24+ at the moment, its really hard to find jeans to fit at the minute. i seen simplybe have a pair but i was hoping for something a bit more stylish but if i cant get anything else i'll go for these jeans.

    M&S do quite stylish trousers and jeans with elasticated waists afaik they do all sizes too. Also Next on line are great for plus sizes jeans etc and stock up to size 28 online - they'll deliver too for just 5 euro or if there's a Next store near to you its even handier cos if you order from them and don't like the item you can just drop it back to the store rather than bother with posting etc.

    Congrats on the Pregnancy too!:D

    Hi Betsy, just to add that Dorothy Perkins do some lovely maternity tops - they go up to 22 but their maternity range is quite generous so they might suit you. Standard Evans stuff is good too, some of their floaty tops would be great for expansion! Oxendales.ie also have a small maternity section - they go right up to size 34.
