Maternity leggings

Can anyone recommend somewhere to buy maternity leggings (UK)? Ive tried H&M and New Look but both are very long in the leg. I feel like leggings manufacturers expect all pregnant women to grow to 6ft tall! I'm average height (5'5) and don't want to spend loads. Thanks in advance!

How far along are you? I'm nearly 28 weeks and I'm still just wearing normal leggings but in a size up from my usual. They stretch anyway.

George at ASDA. I got two pairs for £12 I think. 32 weeks now and still fit well.

gryffen · 25/03/2018 11:34

asda, primark, M&CO - depends what size you are?

ASOS do some.

I'm still in my normal leggings at 39 weeks! They stretch so well. I have maternity ones from New Look which are ginormous and so long as you say. My normal leggings are from next and I think good quality.

I don't normally wear leggings but have bought some pregnancy ones from Gap. They are quite long though and I'm fairly tall (5'9") so probably no use to any one of average or short height!

Mothercare ones were best for me

I've just bought normal leggings but a size up, they're doing me so far at 23 weeks.

Might look at the Asda ones although I bought their jeans (which are great) but like you say.. so bloody long!

I wore normal leggings until about 28 weeks , I then had a couple of Debenhams maternity pairs. I'm short and found these ones okay.

You need a good sized bump for them to stay up though.

I bought 2 sizes up in Sainsbury’s ‘luxury’ leggings (not sure if they are still called that, but they are the £10 ones)
Soft, deep waist band, lovely stuff.

I've just ordered some from ASOS - they seemed to have a good selection including under the bump and over the bump styles. I've gone for over the bump as I think they sound more comfortable and I think I'd rather feel more "tucked in" than "hanging out" Grin

KateRobin84 · 27/03/2018 15:26

Thanks all! Will def try some of these out. I'm at 31 weeks and my normal leggings dig in way too much now. I am (was!) a size 12 :)
