Okay, I know both options are likely to sag but I can't swing an expensive pair right now when I spend most of my day at home in sweat pants.
Is one slightly less saggier than the other?

I haven't worn either, but I did try on some H&M jeans and felt like they ran really small. Like, I'm normally a size 10 and couldn't get a 14 past my hips

I like a pair I have from old navy. No experience with H & M for comparison.

@meredithNYC: Omg yes! When I was pregnant with my daughter I found all H&M maternity stuff was teeny tiny. Like I didn't already feel like a house

I've been basically living in a pair of full panel ON skinny jeans and they have not sagged for a second. Sounds like a lot of people do have that problem, though. I wonder if the difference is that I bought them in my regular pre-pregnancy size instead of sizing up? Maybe they'll be too small in third trimester, but I can switch over to a pair of jeans that a friend lent me at that point (two sizes bigger than my Old Navy pair).

I much preferred Old Navy to H&M. H&M's belly bands were really tight and the only part of the jean that didn't stretch!

Yeah, I don't love my HM maternity jeans - way too tight in the thigh. Better go try old navy.

@travelgirl1: I only bought ONE pair of maternity jeans and have been wearing them from about 9 weeks (I'm 36 weeks now). They're H&M boot cut and they never sag. I wear them almost every day.

I haven't tried H&M jeans, but I'm not a fan of the Old Navy maternity jeans I have (butt and thighs got saggy and I always feel like the top of the full panel band is tighter than necessary). I prefer the Motherhood Maternity (or their Oh Baby brand for Kohls) with the Secret Fit full panel. (still would sag a bit, but much comfier)

Definitely H&M. You do have to size up a bit but the quality is nice for the price and they don't sag. Also the belly band doesn't roll down. Can't say the same for Old Navy. They sagged after one wear and the band never stayed up.

Depends on your build - H&M were the only jeans that stayed up on me. I bought them after being really disappointed in my designer maternity jean splurges, which developed saggy butt syndrome halfway through the day. I agree with the others - they're tight, so you may need to size up, but are really flattering if you're looking for a skinny jeans/jeggings fit.

@californiadreams: It's definitely there! But I live in leggings and stuff do haven't needed to buy anything yet. Feel like I should smarten up a bit though
Thanks everyone!
