Ever since I had my baby, I have a tummy pouch and it tends to roll over the top of my jeans when I sit down which I HATE. They're lucky jeans..used to fit great before..and now I don't know which brand to go with..do you have a favorite brand that fits well?? I'm fairly proportional..size 8-10..with tummy roll!! :( Thanks!!

What can I do next?

You need something with a higher rise. NOT MOM JEANS! LOL! Although, pants that go over the belly button are becoming popular. Weird, but true! I have some Levi's that come just under my belly button. No roll!

I like Eddie Bauer's jeans, they're cut for grown-ups but are not old lady, tehehe. They have more of a contoured waist (slightly higher in the back to avoid butt crack), but are still lower waisted. A little pricey but have gorgeous finishes and last forever. :)

I'm guessing your lucky jeans are low rise. It's not the brand that's the problem, just the rise. I'd try a slightly higher rise. I'm NOT telling you to wear mom jeans. There are many fashionable jeans out there, probably even lucky, that have a higher rise jean. For me, mid rise jeans come straight across that belly pouch, keeping it under control and tucked right in place, yet they are still below the belly button. :)

Look for mid-rise. They will hit right near the top of the tummy roll and hold it in, with no muffin top. I like Eddie Bauer's jeans, but have also had good luck with Lee and Lands' End's new styles. The main thing to look for is the rise. You don't have to spend a fortune to get some great jeans.

Why don't you try some Spanks instead? Who wants to wear 'mom' jeans?

The GAP perfect bootcut are awesome for this...they have a very thick waistband that comes up a little higher and really holds you in. Their Real Straight style is good too.

In Premium here are some of the best:
Citizens of Humanity-Amber cut ( bootleg) Elson Cut-(straight)
Paige-Hidden Hills both straight and boot
7FAMK-High Rise boot
Joes-Muse boot

Most jeans have a higher rise version to them if you look.
I love my Seven Dojo's. And I know that they have a fit with a higher rise (the Flynt, fit, I believe). Same with Paige, Citizens, Habitual, etc...

I'd just go to a dept store and try different fits on until you find one that will work with your new body. :)

I got a great pair of "high waisted" Levi's skinny jeans (sounds scary but wearing long tops anyway, and no belly flopping over low rise). I happened to get those form Urban Outfitters online, but that was months ago, so maybe not now. Shop on sites like Zappos where they give you the different rises. You need high rise. I finally lost the pooch and am in low rise again, but those high waisted ones really got me through that annoying phase.
