Best pregnancy leggings and tights

Hello, firstly Merry Christmas everyone - I'm hoping I can ask for some recommendations please. I've managed to snag my only remaining pregnancy tights and I need to order something to go under a smart dress next week. They were far too tight so maybe it's for the best!

I'm 30 weeks pregnant, measuring 32 weeks and I'm BIG - getting to the stage where I really need comfort and as high over the bump as possible as I have a previous c section scar.

Do you know of any amazing tights that are high over the bump and comfy, or very smart pregnancy leggings that will look ok under a dress?
Sadly it's for a funeral so I need to look formal 😢
Thank you

Hello

Spanx maternity tights were by far the best I bought and I bought a lot!

Leggings were mostly awful, baggy knees etc but the best were from M&S.

I had some decent leggings from new look

Boots maternity tights are great - I wear them every day for work and currently 34 weeks

I'm enjoying my H&M ones at the moment.

Matalan! Life saver.

Another vote for the H&M maternity tights

My youngest is 7, but H&M maternity leggings were fab.

For tights, I just bought big ones and turned them back to front, so my bump was in the bum.

Try Yours clothing, its a plus size store so maybe their regular right sizes will do? They do also do maternity but ive managed so fair in their regular leggings etc

New look maternity leggings, been wearing mine for weeks as nothing else fits! Lol!

Asda maternity tights took me right to 40 weeks perfectly.

Mothercare sell Blooming Marvelous leggings. Had four pairs for my entire pregnancy! They are great!

Best maternity leggings m&s. I found all maternity tights awful and just bought XL from m&s again.

Monipop84 · 26/12/2018 11:39

Second H&M, although the tights at starting to pile after a couple of months of wear

Thank you so much everyone for the suggestions! Grin
I've got some leggings on order now from M&S and have placed orders with two different shops to see which I get on with. I live pretty rurally so have my fingers crossed they arrive before next Friday. My nearest H&M is in Exeter so a good excuse for a shopping excursion to check out the maternity range too!
