TOO STRETCHY, sags
I bought these in the store after trying on 8 other pairs. I chose these based on the comfort level-- they were def the most comfortable when I tried them in the fitting room. I bought my pre-pregnancy size of 29 (I'm 4.5m along and carrying twins). Before wearing them, I washed them but hang-dried them. I wore them 4x and with each instance, the jeans kept stretching and stretching! They got to the point where the butt was saggy and the length was now too long (after I had them hemmed), and the blue belly band was showing from below my tops! So, I tried washing them again but, this time, machine drying in low heat (as recommended by the manufacturer), and still I had the same stretching problem! I think that there is too much spandex or whatever stretchy material in the jeans. I read somewhere you shouldn't go more than 2-4% of the spandex, or they'll stretch out like crazy.
Pea in the Pod let me return the jeans (good service). I ended up buying J Brand's Mama J Skinny Leg (with the elastics in the waist band; no "secret fit belly" band). These have been better...a little stretchy (which will be fine as I get bigger) but not nearly to the extent of the AG ones.

Shocked at the poor quality
I am totally stunned by the high ranking reviews of this product. I have been wearing designer denim for 10 years - yes, and I have about 15 - 20 pairs of various brands. I know how to care for and wear jeans at this point. I am shocked and bummed about the poor quality of these jeans. At this price, I planned to wear them through this pregnancy and future pregnancies.
I agree with another reviewer that within 30 days of wear and after first wash (I followed directions, washing inside out and dry on low), they have become baggy and almost unwearable! They are baggy in the knees, thighs and butt! They also slid down my hips as the elastic hasn't lasted AT ALL! I would not advise anyone to buy this porduct!

LASTED 1 MONTH BEFORE LOSING STRETCH
I wasn't interested in laying down big bucks for maternity jeans, but I splurged after realizing how comfortable they were and the fit was great. I figured I'd use them for the entire pregnancy and save them for future pregnancies. Well, it worked out great for about a month and then after a routine tumble dry (as directed), they lost all of their elasticity. Now, as soon as I put them on, they bulge at the knees, thighs and everywhere else they used to stretch. They look like horrible baggy jeans now and are unwearable - the only thing holding them up is the elastic band at the waist that slowly slides down. If you do decide to buy these jeans and want them to last, I would suggest that you DO NOT dry them.

Great jeans
They fit great! They are soft and do not fall down. They also look cute!
