I love these pants so much, I will bever buy anything else! They are like wearing yoga pants to work! I usually wear size medium long cherokee flare drawstring pants, but I am in my first trimester of pregnancy and have gained about 15 lbs (all in my belly - not baby, just fat). My drawstring pants were starting to get uncomfortable but I'm not ready for maternity pants. I was worried about buying these because I usually wear a size long (I am 5'8) in other cherokee pants, and these don't come in long. I decided to order these based on other reviews stating they run a little long, and I am so glad I did!!! They are a perfect length and so comfortable! I ordered a large and they are a little big in the legs, but very comfortable on my fat belly, with plenty of room for when my baby grows. Also, the small stich that keeps the top folded down will be very easy to remove when my belly gets bigger so I can pull them over my belly and use them as maternity pants! I love them so much that after I lose my baby weight I plan on throwing away all my drawstring scrubs and ordering these in my regular size. They do seem to run a little large, so post-baby I will probably order a small instead of my usual medium. Also, if you are shorter than 5'5 I would definitely order petite since they run long.
