Maternity leggings that aren't slightly opaque!

I am tending to live in leggings at the mo, but am rapidly growing out of my normal ones (am 17 weeks). The trouble with loads of leggings is that they're not very dense fabric and so they are more like thick tights, and knicker outlines are visible, so you can only wear long tops. Sometimes I want to wear normal length tops and a long cardi, but definitely don't want any see-throughness!

So what are the best maternity leggings to go for, and can you vouch for them being nice and thick?! Grin

£8 M&S leggings, not maternity ones, same size or one size up. Am 22 weeks and think they are the bees knees, also they don't bag, mind you that might just be because I completely fill them Grin

I got the new look maternity ones they were cheap as chips, got two opairs, and they're nice and solid. I'm 35 weeks and still in them, there's no see through bits.

h&m are lovely!
maternity ones are £12 and so comfy and very thick also and long not these ride up to your calf jobs Grin

dorothy pekins are very comfy also but need a long top worn with them as they are alot thinner. but they look lovelt aswell.

i bought 2 h&m and one set of dorothy perkins and they lasted my whole preg without wahing out also.

sorry for bad spelling/ grammer im shattered!

Blooming Marvellous are not see through at all. But the ones I have are 3/4 length as I got them in the summer, so you'd have to see if they do longer ones.
