Good maternity leggings?

Has any of you found maternity leggings that you're happy with? I have bought a few pairs from very cheap New Look ones to a ridiculously expensive Seraphine pair and they all seem to ride down as I walk Hmm

I'm only 16 weeks so my bump is still pretty small - perhaps it will get better when I actually have a bigger bump to keep them up?! Also I have straight/slim hips which I guess doesn't help.

I prefer over the bump but open to suggestions.

Thanks very much!

I wore my next ones right up until the end of my pregnancy. They never slipped off the bump. I also bought normal leggings in a bigger size and sat them under the bump.

I haven't worn leggings this pregnancy, apart from going to the gym, but Mint Velvet were the best ones for me, due to them having a lovely wide band at the top which is so comfy. They're not maternity leggings though. I just bought my usual size S and they were fine.

Through every pregnancy I've bought or re used top shop legging. Never fall apart and quite thick as I hate see through leggings. Extremely comfy

My normal leggings still fit and sit under the bump, so if you can wear those and long tops you'd be sorted.

But I have found my New Look leggings fit me a lot better now at 33 weeks :)

I just wore regular leggings for ages now at 34wks I am still wearing regular leggings just in a size bugger than normal from asda. Don't get their two pack ones they seem crap quality but the ones they sell individually for £6? Seem much better.
