Best Shorts EVER!!
These shorts are so comfortable and are very stylish. I will be wearing them long after I have the baby!

So happy!
I was hesitant on purchasing maternity clothes online with this being my first pregnancy and I was unsure how they would fit. However, I am so happy I purchased these. They are so comfortable. I was hesitant on the size. I usually wear a 23 or 24 in madewell jeans/shorts but those sizes were sold out so I went ahead and got a 25 since I felt like my butt grew along with my belly. They fit perfect. I wish there were more options for maternity shorts from madewell!

Love love love
So comfortable. This is my third pregnancy and I have finally found shorts that aren’t too short/long, too tight/loose. I’m 4.5 months (which with #3 is equivalent to where I was at 6 months with my other two). and I’m sure they will last me through the summer. I’m a 25 / 0 petite (5’2” 100#) and I ordered my normal size and have been so relieved. I also ordered Madewell maternity jeans and have loved them, too. Highly recommend.

A good place to start!
I'm just 16 weeks pregnant and thought I could get through summer without maternity shorts but was wrong! I got these in my normal size (25) and since they are such a low rise, they felt pretty small. They're also very short. Cute though!

Not true Maternity
These shorts are super cute and I ordered a size up just to be safe. I’m really petite and these shorts fit everywhere but the belly. The “panels” barely even stretch and are extremely uncomfortable. Won’t be able to wear these until after baby comes.. really disappointed and was able to get more comfortable and just as cute styles from other stores for HALF the price.

Tight shorts for maternity
I was really excited to see a pair of maternity shorts here. I tried two different sizes, based on my pre-pregnancy sizing. I even sized up on these since I have more muscular thighs. I am currently 28 weeks and they did not work out. These may fit if you are earlier on in your pregnancy. The pull-on waistband feature may work for a smaller bump. The legs/thigh are quite narrow but the material is pretty stretchy.
