These fit so well! I have a 7 month old baby, and I've yet to achieve the postpartum bod of my dreams. I still have a little bit of a pooch. I'd like to call it my mom pooch, but honestly, it's more likely a cookie pooch. Either way, I'm super self conscious about it. I don't often feel like I look ...good in clothes anymore. I bought these thinking I'd end up returning them just like everything else I try. WRONG! The rise on these jeans is so flattering. You can't tell I have a mom (cookie) pooch in them; it's perfectly disguised. They don't have a gap in the waist, which is usually the case when I buy jeans. They hug my curves without making me first pray to the denim Gods for grace and stretch before I sit down. They maintain their shape, AND they make my booty look good. Buy them! Buy them now!! When I saw how I looked in them and felt that old surge of confidence I haven't felt since before getting pregnant, I literally teared up. I can't wait to pair these with heels for a night out...if I ever find a sitter.
