Oh gosh I hadn't even heard of those but now I really want some!! I don't think I can justify the cost though at almost 38 weeks pregnant :(

Yes I have two pairs I've used all the way through, am 38w 5d now, def recommend them, they are great! I have the plain black ballet pair for work and they look dressy but are very comfy. Then I have the grey suede pair with black edging which look nice with jeans, black leggings etc. You just feel sturdy and the way the part under your feet is padded is such a relief as you get towards the end and feel like you weigh a ton. Plus slip on anything at this point I am loving, bending down for laces, buckles or socks is not fun!

Thanks Tweedle! Will get my order in !

Lalabaloo - think of all that walking with the pram you will be doing? You will need some comfy shoes for that! Grin

Good point gingerbread! I think I might have to make an investment...

Can you post a link or something please?

I've not heard of those but I have had dodgy hips for years (have seen a chiropractor for getting on for 8 years) and although I a) usually wear sensible, supportive shoes & avoid heels, & b) will continue to see the chiropractor through this pg, I had quite a lot of discomfort/pain during my DD's pg. I would consider anything that would head it off at the pass as it were this time around, as I'm 10wks tomorrow. I'm also a teacher, so will prob continue to wear them for work, therefore cost is relative iyswim!! Grin

Thanks!!! Flowers

Sounds painful Chunky. Here you go link

This is the seraphine website but you can buy them direct from Shoetherapy too- same price. ST website probably has more info...

I need to actually press send on my order!

I've got a pair and I do think they're a lot better than normal ballet shoes but I don't wear mine everyday purely as I have really dodgy feet anyway and have to wear orthotics which only really go in trainers or boots. But I bought these for smart occasions as they're the closest I can get to dressy shoes, sadly! Would definitely recommend. And I don't see that they have to be worn only during pregnancy anyway so if you want supportive shoes they prob are a good investment!

Thank you so much. Will have a look & tell you how I get on!!! :)
