On third pregnancy and rediscovering why I hate maternity tights, 2 different brands so far tried and with both I have ended up with the gusset falling down to my knees by the end of the day! I have tried sizing up but they are even worse. So anyone found any that stay up?

Boots ones were best for me, I got a bigger size though

Boots stayed up for me although I will admit I didn't wear them a huge amount.

Mothercare are terrible, my usual size are round my knees within an hour. Size smaller are marginally better

I got mother care tights and I'm having problems with getting them to stay up. I thought it might be because I machine washed them not hand wash.
I'm going to try the h&m mama ones after reading these posts.

Thanks all - am going to give H&M Mama a go. I used hold ups last time round but hate the bulges of fat you get at the top (or maybe its just me)...

Boots and h+m. Both inexpensive too.

Don't wear them a lot but my M&S ones have been fine.

H&m although I did find they were quite long on me - still did the job though. Hold ups just fell down...tried those for a wedding and ended up waddling to a h&m in search of tights as the darn things gradually fell down my legs in a Nora batty fashion - not pretty.

sainburys are really good if you've got a bump. I've got three pairs and am now 33 weeks.

I've got a pair of m&s ones and they're at nightmare. spend all day pulling them back up!

Am in shock - am wearing a pair from Vertbaudet today which seem to be staying up so far...

Have been to H&M and got some of their tights to try out too.

Im still wearing a year after dd, as they are so so comfy and fit with no bump too!
