Maternity High Waist Briefs - 95% Organic Cotton

These are the most comfortable maternity underwear I've tried. The organic cotton is so soft, the waistband is comfortable, they never ride down, and at 25 weeks pregnant I still have plenty of room to grow. I usually wear thongs, but these high-waisted briefs have won me over. I'll definitely be buying more so I can wear them every day!

The Q for Quinn maternity undies are hands down the best, cleanest, most comfortable maternity underwear on the market. I have to admit, looking at the price tag, I was hesitant to make the purchase - worried that I'd be disappointed and have serious buyer's remorse.

I was worried that they'd run small, that they'd be uncomfortable or overly tight/snug in the elastic areas (I have a 47" butt and a big growing bump!)

I'm SO happy to report that these do NOT run small at all. In fact, there is a ton of room for additional stretching, and the ruching and elastic are both super soft (I don't even notice they are there). I love that they come up my belly at the perfect height and provide great butt coverage, which were two other things I was worried about.

MOST importantly, I feel 100% safe wearing these and have peace of mind regarding how these might impact my health, and the health of my growing baby.

I'd previously purchased high waisted maternity underwear from a well-known baby/maternity brand that were half the cost, but made of 100% plastic. Not only was the largest size snug in the wrong places, leaving marks on my belly, but as my pregnancy progressed I found I was getting super warm in them!

I was also becoming increasingly uncomfortable about sweating, or slathering on any kind of lotion/belly oil while wearing them, as both those things increase the skin's absorption of whatever chemicals are present in the fabrics we are wearing.

So now, not only am I super comfy in my Q for Quinns, but I sweat, get out of my warm shower, lotion up, and feel completely relaxed/at ease. I can also see these continuing to be so useful for postpartum, and hope to have multiple kids, so fingers crossed they'll be put to good use for years to come!

My ONLY initial qualm was the lack of size labelling, since I purchased these in two sizes just in case. But I'm used to it now, and am happy if that means not having extra labels sewn in.

Absolutely love. If you're on the fence, just go for it. Maybe buy two different sizes like I did, to accomodate your body as you grow/shrink. You won't regret it.

If anybody from the company is reading this, please consider making cute high waisted underwear in your regular non-maternity undies as well!

At first they felt less elastic then my regular underwear and I wanted a bit more elastic and stretch, but after an hour or so in them, my body liked them, and they’ve been great ever since. I think it was just my body getting used to something different. And I imagine it’s a balancing act re how much elastic vs eco conscious, and I ordered these for something well made and eco conscious, so it works well for me.

Underwear generally stay up (sometimes slide down during exercise or certain movements/positions - more if my pants are sliding down), and feel like they can hold a bit more growth
