Stretchy maternity leggings

Please help me find some very stretchy maternity leggings. I can't stand anything tight over my bump, but I don't like the insecurity of under the bump leggings. Tight leggings make me feel nauseous. I don't mind if they are very thin or see through, as I'll be wearing them under dresses for extra warmth.

Any recommendations?

The Seraphine bamboo ones are thin soft and stretchy. I actually didn't like them that much as I wanted to wear them as 'proper' bottoms and found them too thin for that, but for under dresses andr round the house they are probably what you're looking for.

I've come across a brand on Instagram called Mum Essentials. Actually started by a mum herself. The leggings are surprisingly really thick and good quality. Check them out. You may be able to find them on google but if not they're definietly on instagram.

I got some on boohoo that stay in place over bump but don't feel tight. I'm not happy with them because they're so thin and give me serious VPL (they're also the only pants that still fit now that I'm overdue) but they'd be fine for under dresses.

I got some from New Look that were really good and the band was comfortable on my tummy. Alternatively I've also just been buying Primark leggings as they're a bit cheaper, but sizing up as bump has grown, they have quite a thick top band on them so again very comfy x

My ASOS ones have held up for over 3 years and 3 pregnancies! 😂 They go right up over the bump and are very comfortable, think they were a two pack.

M&S yoga leggings. I lived in them for 9 months and now pp. you need to size up for the perfect comfortable fit though!

I'm the exact same as you - hate anything tight around my tummy, even before I was pregnant. Tried a few types of leggings which all just felt too tight. I eventually went for a pair of jeggings off Lovall, and also 2 pairs of their winter leggings in different sizes (they have lots of other leggings too). I was an 8 pre-pregnancy but sized up to a 12 and a 14 for the leggings and a 10 for the jeggings. I'm 34 weeks atm and have been wearing them for ages.

Yes second to the Lovall jeggings and leggings. Really comfy. Quite thick though, have also got the boohoo ones which are far thinner, and low quality but do the job.

H and M mama before and after. They are the best x

Another vote for the Asos 2 pack! They do go slightly see through but would be fine under a dress, they’re cheap and SO comfy!
