Hi. I'm due in Jan and already have sore feet. I was planning on wearing Uggs as soon as it gets colder as they are so comfy but have been told it is not advisable to wear them when pregnant as they don't give enough support to the tendons. Has anyone else heard this? Hmm

UBS - that made me laugh. Thought you had a banking query Grin

Yes, I can confirm (from bitter experience) that flat Ugg or Ugg style boots wreck the arches of your feet, and can cause achilles tendonitis. I had a very large physio bill as a result.

They are fine if you put orthopaedic insoles in them. I got some from Boots (can't remember the brand).

Thanks for that!! I'll get some insoles.
