The cut and style of these shorts is very flattering and cute. No complaints there. However, what is it with maternity bottoms on Amazon being sized for only the very tiny? I'm a 9/10 in women's jeans, and wear a small in shirts (even in pregnancy, I'm still in small sized maternity shirt). I purchased the large in these shorts and could barely get them on! Yes, they're stretchy but way too tight - not something pregnant women generally look for in clothing.So if you do purchase, be sure to go a size up from what you think you need. Also note that the belly band part is very short and falls awkwardly right around your belly button - THE most uncomfortable place for pants to sit when pregnant, in my opinion. And the band is too small to be effectively folded down, like you can do with standard maternity pant bands when you don't like the compression.Overall, I feel like these shorts were designed by someone who has never been pregnant (or has long since forgotten what it was like), and thinks that a middle-sized individual has hips and thighs the size of a teenager.
