Secret Fit Belly – A Pregnant Mama’s Review of These Kick Butt Comfortable Maternity Jeans and Pants

Hey there! If this is your first time here, please consider subscribing to the RSS feed or the MamaDivas.com newsletter
I’m just about to round the 2nd trimester bend, and I’m already feeling that my regular pants and jeans are a little snug around the hip and abdomen area. Luckily I was able to persuade the hubby to take me maternity clothes shopping last week, so I’m set with some pants and jeans that don’t feel like they’re digging creases into my belly.
We went to one of the Destination Maternity locations here on Long Island, and I must say I have fallen in love with their Secret Fit Belly line. It’s available across all their brands: from the affordable yet stylish Motherhood Maternity to the uber chic A Pea in the Pod (where you can get a pair of True Religion jeans maternity style)!
Basically, it’s this super stretchy and breathable fabric panel that replaces the normal belly band. It’s thinner than even the average camisole, so it’s oh so comfortable, and it’s so stretchy it’ll keep you cozy till postpartum. It’s great, because discomfort due to not-so-comfy maternity jeans and pants was one major cause of my prenatal grouchiness towards the world when I was pregnant with littleQ. All the jeans and pants I bought had the Secret Fit Belly panel, so I’m pretty sure I’ll have one less thing to complain about this time around.
They’re seamless and even help to smooth out any little bumps, so that means that at least for now while my bump is still so tiny some people might mistake me for just having one too many tacos for lunch, I can still wear my regular tanks, tees and tops for at least the next month or two. I’m not sure if I’ve ever mentioned this, but I just barely hit the 5′2″ mark, and All THREE Destination Maternity brands (Motherhood, Mimi Maternity and A Pea in the Pod) carry jeans and pants in Petite lengths WITH the Secret Fit Belly panel. It rocks! (Yes that’s me becoming oh so excited over maternity clothes, lol)
From Destination Maternity:
The seamless fabric smoothes out your belly without rubbing and can be worn up or folded down for a customized fit. And, with no seams, you don’t need to worry about holes, rips, or broken seam threads
Other moms love ‘em too.. and have since the Secret Fit Belly came out:

Oh, these look so comfy! Wish I had them around for my pregnancies! Glad you enjoyed maternity shopping. I loved being pregnant and getting cute little outfits to wear over my growing belly! Congrats!
Do these pants shrink in length? I bought a pair but they are a touch too long. Do I keep or return for petite (I’m not usually a petite) Thanks!
