Hi all-
Apologies if this has been "covered" already.

Any suggestions for maternity yoga shorts?

Everything I find is either cotton (ew) or skimpy (not my style).

So my criteria are:
1. Built to fit a pregnant lady
2. Not cotton!
3. My butt won't hang out

Thanks for any help. -m

congratulations! I wore my normal bikram clothes right to the last day of my pregnancy because it was mostly my stomach that changed and my bra and shorts/pants still covered what they needed to cover (I was straining the bra a bit I admit, but my boobs were very small to begin with so the look was still decent at the end). The shakti wear line is very nice- the shorts are stretchy and have the strings at the side that you can let down to make the shorts a bit longer. If you don't want to choose my budget-friendly choice, I would recommend getting hot yoga shorts or capri pants but then in a larger size to accommodate your new size. I did tend to favor my capri pants right at the end and after the pregancy because they have a flap that normally folds down at the waist, and I would wear it up and then wore a loose black tank top over the bra and shorts/pants. The capri pants were just normal yoga/exercise pants from champion that I got at Target. hope that helps!
