I was highly disappointed with Motherhood's secret fit belly maternity jeans. The "secret fit" panel is very thin and light as a feather, which makes them extremely comfortable. The panel is meant to be an over-the-belly panel. But the fact that the the panel is light as a feather means that they can't keep the jeans up around my belly at all! In the fitting room they seemed great, but as soon as I got them home and wore them around for about 3 minutes, they started to slip down and I found myself constantly hiking them up.
I had a pair of jeans from my first pregnancy, about 3 years ago, that had a thicker over-the-belly panel with a drawstring going through the top which I thought at the time was overly bulky. But now I see that it was necessary in order to keep the pants up.
Incidently, I also have a pair of secret fit yoga pants which are great. Since the yoga pants are light and don't need much support to hold them up, the secret fit panel doesn't slip at all - so for lighter weight pants, I'd say go for it. But for jeans? Not good!
