Problem: My legs are too long!!

Today, I am pleased to say that I am 18 weeks pregnant!! Yeah!  I can't believe I'm almost half way there, this is going by faster than I thought it would.  Baby T is the size of a sweet potatoe this week weighing in at 6.7 oz. and is about 5.6 inches long.  
According to the Bumb.com, "Baby's become amazingly mobile (compared to you, at least), passing the hours yawning, hiccupping, rolling, twisting, kicking, punching, sucking, and swallowing. And baby is finally big enough that you'll soon be able to feel her movements."  I haven't felt Baby T move yet but I'm looking forward to it.
My belly is officially growing now.  Almost no pants I own will button.  I've been using my belly band a lot but I feel like everyone knows my pants are undone :).  I bought my first pair of preggo jeans online last week and can't wait for them to come in.  I need some relief when I sit down.  I did have to order a special pair of jeans so they would be long enough.  I have the longest legs ever!!!  I'm about to help out at my old job for about 6 weeks while my friend is on maternity leave and this means I'll have to have something to wear.  I've been looking for some preggo dress pants.  They are ALL rediculously short.  I can't even wear flat shoes with then, they are still highwaters!  The only place I found dress pants that would almost be long enough is the Pea in the Pod and they were $165!  WHAT!?!  Are you kidding me!!  Anyone have suggestions for a reasonable pair of black maternity pants??  I'm just praying for warm weather soon so I can wear skirts and dresses comfortabley.

This is what I feel like...with not so many legs of course.

Hahaha this post made me laugh out loud. You're too funny! I went to A Pea in the Pod this past weekend and about died when I saw a pair of shorts 50% off for the low price of $47!! Are you serious? Ridiculous!

Sorry I'm not much help in the long leg department-I've got stubs for legs. Luckily it's summer and you can get by with dresses/skirts. Enjoy your long limbs, honey. :)

I bought my dress pants at Motherhood Maternity. They are pretty long. Have you tried there? They also have cute dressy capris!

Try Longtallsally.com - I randomly got a catalog from them and saw that they had long maternity pants. I think they were a little pricey but it may be wowrth it...
