I have *one* pair of jeans that fits right now. And I'm not sure if I'm ever going to fit into my old jeans!
I need to go pick up some cheap H&M jeans...

Ugh. I feel your pain. I'm almost 8 months as well. I finally broke down and bought some new work pants in a bigger size. I technically fit into my old clothes, just with a spare tire. My new pants are like sitting on a comfy couch. Aaaah! I'm wearing them right now.

@stargal: I do too
Everything just looks SO bad on my body right now at 4 months pp. The lack of sleep, not eating until late at night after everyone is down for the night, is really making it hard to lose weight.
My pre-third preg jeans are baggy in the legs and butt, and tight in the waist. Bleh. My pre-second preg jeans can't button.

I definitely still appear a bit pregnant at 4 months PP. It's more blump than bump but it's noticeable. Someone even asked me last month if I was pregnant again.
I did go buy two new pairs of jeans last month and they are amazing. I didn't go cheap because I don't know how much more changing my body will do without putting in significant effort and I don't have the time so I spend about $100 total for both and am happy I did that.
Most of my pre pregnancy tops are ill fitting, too, which is irritating. Dressing PP is not any fun!

I am only about 3 pounds above my pre pregnancy weight and my jeans still don't fit at all. My hips, thighs, and waist are just completely different now. I just bought a new pair of JBrands from Twice. They are in perfect condition but I'm glad I didn't pay that much ($40 bucks woot!) in case I change sizes again.

I had to buy some cheap Old Navy jeans one size up to tide me over for a bit! And dresses.

I lost the pregnancy weight pretty quickly but things still fit differently. And I'm roughly the same number size but not the same shape. Somehow pants are all baggy and dumpy on my legs but still pinch my waist, which is smaller than prepreg but mushier. And has an extra little pooch right in the front.
@Little Misters Mom: same here, I bought a pair of nice joes jeans from a consignment store- I lucked out that they fit pretty great but cost less than the Gap. And I also bought a pair of super stretchy skinny jeans from Forever 21 for $8.
Eta: C is almost 16 months old. Not sure this counts as "postpartum" anymore!

The lbs are gone but I think with this second pregnancy my body has shifted. I feel like my hips and thighs have gotten wider and are staying. Because I literally can't pull my old jeans past the knees.

I'm actually below my pre-pregnancy weight and my clothes don't fit. I think my hips and butt got bigger! I've been wearing sweatpants and yoga pants on maternity leave, but I may buy a couple pairs of pants for work in a bigger size to help make it through.
