Yoga pants, post baby attire

Anyone know where they have full length and capri yoga pants that don't press on your stomach too much?
My csection is Wednesday and I have 2 pairs... One is a little nicer... That I think I can use for after baby. I remember with DD liking the softer cotton pants, not really the VS tighter ones.

I looked in Target and they only have the tighter banded pants. Or they were like 20 dollars!!

Old Navy? Gap?

I also completely forgot about sports bras!! I have two nursing bras but I remember how comfy a sports bra was, esp when my milk came in and I have to shove a heating pad inside!

Also I wanted to just say I did find Hanes high cut undies at Target for like 8 bucks for 6 pairs. These are wonderful post baby!!

I would go with the target ones. I wear them now, and they are worth the 20 bucks. I plan on stocking up here soon.

I just ordered these 1 size bigger than usual.  $14, no shipping cost and are suppsoed to arrive within days.  But I haven't received them yet so I don't know the feel.

I also bought 2 genie bra's for $20 at Rite Aid.   Not sure if they will be good now - but thought it was good price.

I just got some on oldnavy.com. They were fold over yoga pants and I think they will work well. They were also on sale for about $10.

I was at Target today and they have the yoga pants that were low rise on sale for $15.  I tried them on and they were really comfortable.

I went with the Target pants. They aren't the best for working out in, but they go below my belly and are good at stretching. If you're a regular Target shopper, sometimes you'll get coupons for $5 off $50 or once you buy one maternity item, they pretty much always give you a coupon for the next at checkout.

I really like the aerie (by American eagle) ones. The ones I just bought the band can either be rolled or stay up higher and they are so darn comfortable.  I wish I would have bought more.

I've really enjoyed the yoga pants from oldnavy.com and capris from gap.com

Both have the fold over top which seems like it would be pretty comfy after a c-section

After my section with DDs, I passed on the yoga pants for a while and went with scrub pants.  They worked great because they have an adjustable drawstring waist and hit high enough that they didn't hit my incision.  We had a bunch at home, but I think that you can get them at Walmart.

If you have a gap outlet nearby they have some great ones, and usually on sale.

I have both lengths from old navy and I love them. I just bought more. I did get the maternity ones but they roll over so I think they'll be great right after the baby.

These aren't really yoga pants, but I own two pairs and wear them constantly because of how comfortable they are. They are a bit of a looser fit, but nicer than just sweatpants.

A note about Target yoga pants (I work for corporate, and used to be in the apparel department):

There are two lines of C9 yoga clothes -- one of them is called "Premium" and it is a higher end stretch fabric with high tech qualities.  Personally I LIVE in these, but the first 20 minutes after you put them on, they ARE tighter in the tummy area.  They are also slightly more expensive.  however, since they are a hgih-tech fabric, they might be great for your wound in terms of wicking away moisture, etc.

The premium line has a silver hangtag.

The other pants are looser. 

I found a pair of yoga pants at Motherhood maternity for cheap -- I actually don't care for them because they are so loose in the tummy area, but for purposes of babying your incision, they might be perfect.

I agree that $20 is super cheap / reasonable for yoga pants!

I just ordered two pairs from Old Navy.  I bought both styles in their petite line.  I like them both, but like the non-fold down ones best.

I have a pair from Gap that I love, they are called simple drawstring or something like that.  They are very forgiving in the tummy and nice and long for longer legged mamas.  They are in the regular (not maternity) section, but I have worn mine constantly and have no problem adjusting to my growing belly.

My Athletic Works yoga pants from Wal-Mart are awesome soft and comfy. There are some tummy slimming ones that are tight but the regular ones are smooth against me and put no pressure at all. Try on a size up to see if it's easier. I wore them my whole pregnancy and post partum and now I have 7 pairs for maternity pants.Plus they are only $17 in Canada so I imagine they'd be cheap in the US.

I love my non-maternity ones from Old Navy. They are long enough and don't stretch out. The fold over waist is comfy and I plan on wearing it up after my c-section like I am now.

Kohls - SO Energy Yoga Pants, they're in the juniors department and are amazingly soft and not super tight on the band. I've been living in them since I'm carrying so low and maternity pants cut into me. They're usually on sale between $8-15 and they have solid colors like navy, gray, and black in addition to designs on the waist band with solid black pants.

I just ordered some on clearance about a week ago from victoria's secret.  They were about $12 per pair and with shipping I think it added another couple of dollars. They have two kinds. The ones that are tighter on the legs and ones that are much looser.  Both have very soft and big fold over bands.

I got some for Christmas and have been living in them so thought I would get another couple of pairs for after my c-section.

BTW - I got these today and think they are good.  Maybe I should not have gone with a size bigger since I'm so close to my due date and more want these for when I'm home post-baby, but I think they still work (and I can wear for my last few weeks pregnant).  When folded over they are very low on the hips.  These were only $13.99 with no shipping and it came super fast (2 days).
