Clearly this situation with half my backside and my CS shelf both not covered and uncomfortable cannot continue, never mind the draught, the constant pulling up is driving me crazy. Any ideas?

M&S, mines go right up to my ribs. I'm 5ft 8.

I always buy large so I can pull them right up. I have also been known to wear maternity tights when not pregnant...

M&S and John Lewis own brand do tights that I could create a sleeping bag out of. Even Simon Cowell would think they were a bit too high. I'm 5'6 and find them way too long so you might like those.

Also you can put a little slit on the elastic of the waistband in tights and they'll still stay up the same but won't dig in if you need some extra room there.

I still wear my old maternity tights - you won't get this problem then!! Plenty of room in the tummy and bum - genius solution!

I tried Heist for the first time yesterday and they were amazing! Supercomfy, don't fall down, don't wrinkle like Nora Batty around the ankles, good wide waistband.

I have some Snag tights too but haven't tried them yet. I'm nervous that they can't compete with the Heist ones!

I'm another fan of the primary body shaper ones - they come up lovely and high, and the extra elastic stops them rolling down.

Ok I’m off to M&S tomorrow for Simon cowell style tights!!

Snag tights. Never looked back since.

Primark come up to just under my bra. I have a shortish torso but a big enough belly they need to stretch over and I find them plenty long enough.

Primark are the best tights , they come up very high and if in doubt I put pants over the top.
