stock maternity tights?

I went in today. Mothercare selection was awful. Only had thick grey wolly tights or 15 denier black ones.

Went in M & S. Ours is enormous. Found the tights. The biggest tights collection I have ever seen! I ask someone. No they don't stock maternity tights, only bras and leggings. [hhmm]

Walked past Peacocks, DH said why not give them a try. Bingo, 70 denier black maternity tights that were half price too!

If Peacocks can manage it with their very limited Maternity collection and much smaller shops, surely a huge chain like M & S who are bloody known for their underwear could have a few pairs of maternity tights?

Or am I expecting too much?

M&S never have tights in my size. So I order them online and pick them up a few days later. No delivery charge.

God I have never even heard of maternity tights! I hate tights though and would despise them whilst pregnant....why don't you write and ask them. NO god complaning on here...write a letter and ask why they don't have them.

Maybe I'll email. Can't be bothered to write a letter. Just couldn't understand how a shop that had such a huge selection of everything underwear wise, didn't stock a few pairs of maternity tights.

M&S do do some (maternity tights), you can order online and they deliver to the store BUT they are dreadful, always falling down, do not recommend.

Could you not have bought normal tights but just in a bigger size?

Maybe not such a bad thing then MumNW.

Life I like things over the bump. Have had under the bump before and it drives me mad. Needs to be touching my boobs for it to be comfortable. [hgrin]

I didn't buy maternity pants or tights, just turned them round the other way. It was surprisingly comfortable!

I bought proper maternity tights from Next. Wasn't too impressed when they fell down walking down the corridor at work

I had some Boots ones. They were excellent.

H & M ones were the best for me, but they kept going out of stock.
