Oh, I KNOW. I have a 36-37" inseam and I haven't found a single place that carries maternity pants long enough for me. : It's hard enough finding non-maternity pants, and they're usually an inch or two short and need to be lengthened. I'm basically planning on spending the summer and fall in skirts and flip-flops and the winter in leggings and Uggs, since it's also impossible to find shoes for my boat-feet (size 13, dude), and all my pretty shoes are already snug. I'm DREADING the feet growing/swelling thing and really hope it doesn't happen to me (but I know it will). I don't think I could emotionally handle a size 14 shoe. :

If anyone has tips for maternity pants with inseams that long, PLEASE share!

They are kinda expensive, but EVERY PANT THERE has a 36-37 inseam. I'm hoping to get a pair of jeans and a pair of dress pants.

So awesome.

I'm thinking about getting the extenders they sell at babies r us to expand the life of my regular jeans for a while longer.

Those are awesome! I wore those my entire pregnancy, up to the day I delivered!

I'm 6'1.5" to be nit-picky, but I usually just say 6'1". My sister is 5'10" like you. Weird!

I'm not showing yet, but with my 2 pgs I bought long jeans from american eagle that were super low rise. I had one size for the beginning and a bigger size for later on. I think I'm going to try out those belly bands this time around so I can wear my regular jeans.

I'm glad I'm not the only one "showing". This is my 5th pregnancy (third baby) and I'm only 5 weeks, but by the end of the day I look 6 months pregnant. I already had a belly, but seriously, my clothes are not going to fit in a week. I really look pregnant though. I know it is just bloating, but my 15 and 16 y/o dsd's keep saying it will be twins because of how big I look already!

I am also glad I'm not the only one! I also look okay in the morning, also get a big bloaty belly by the evening.

I'm slim with terribly untoned abs, so I'm prone to the pooch at the best of times. So now at least I can wear the unflattering shirts I avoided wearing before I got pregnant -- one empire-waist tunic in particular really played up my pre-existing belly, so every time I put it on I thought, "I can't wear this, because everyone is going to ask me if I am finally pregnant."

Now I can wear it and blame the belly on the baby!
