I got them to grow into, since I'm not showing yet, just bloated, and I liked that they look fine now (with the waist covered up) &amp; are stretchy enough to stay up now &amp; hopefully as I grow. Let's hope they were worth it. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-vs-ponte-pants#post-1888388 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 22:56:48 +0000 Mrs. Detour 1888388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have both and the ponte pants are getting uncomfortable in the same way that maternity jeans suck after a long day's wear. The ponte pants are more office appropriate, but the more pregnant I look, the more appropriate leggings look since its obv that I'm not going for sexy. Today, I wore leggings, long blouse, and a theory suit jacket and felt ok in a room full of men in suits. (Maybe my standards are dropping) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-vs-ponte-pants#post-1888134 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 17:35:26 +0000 meredithNYC 1888134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you don't love it, don't keep it! Comfort is key with maternity wear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-vs-ponte-pants#post-1888101 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 16:39:51 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1888101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raspberries: Thanks :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-vs-ponte-pants#post-1888084 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 16:24:43 +0000 raspberries 1888084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm all for leggings - but ponte pants fit me strangely (like you said, loose in some places and tight in others, in a completely unflattering and granny-like way.) I think it might be marginally more acceptable to wear ponte pants with shorter tops (meaning not covering your rear) but I'd probably just go with leggings and return the ponte pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-vs-ponte-pants#post-1888059 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 15:58:53 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1888059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Seriously ladies, I feel so helpless when it comes to style/clothing, especially maternity. </p> <p>I have been searching for maternity pants that don't suck. I found a pair of ponte pants at target that I like, but don't love (they are a little loose in places in tight in others. I also found leggings at motherhood maternity that I really really love. </p> <p>Should I keep the ponte pants even though I don't love them, or return them and get another pair of leggings? Is there a time when I would want to wear ponte pants instead? </p>
