Snag tights - how are they supposed to fit?

Hello! So I've been eyeing Snag tights for a long time as most tights dig in at my waist (I do admit I have a somewhat sensitive waistline and can't do tight clothes around my waist like other women seem to be able to do), but I've had good luck here and there with some tights so I'm not a lost cause.

Anyway, I was seduced by the raving reviews both on MN and other platforms and ordered some tights over the weekend, which arrived today. And they dig in at the waist.

I'm 5.4" and usually a size 10, 12 for some jeans, but mostly an S/M, but I'm also pregnant so as recommended I ordered a size up and went for a D. Looking at the pictures of other women wearing a size D I got the impression those models were larger/taller than I, but that it should be fine given my future bump... well, I'm 18 weeks right now, I have a small bump that's mostly bloat and I doubt size D is going to fit me in a few weeks (even today I could not stand the pressure for longer than 15 minutes).

I emailed them with some fit questions and photos but so far haven't gotten a response, so I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Did I get the wrong size?

Photo attached of me pre-pregnancy, but those jeans still fit me (expect for little bump) so you'll get an idea of my size.

A previous poster went on the Snag website and took a screenshot of a picture of a model called Ben (well he is actually a customer who snag asked if they could use his photo on said products page but whatever). She posted it on here so we could all sneer and judge him. I'm glad mn removed it.

Sorry Jace in answer to your question I think D for a regular fit or E if you want more stretch and give. My dp is a 14 and wears E

@JaceLancs

I’m confused by the Ben references In my house Ben or Big Ben or even little Ben refers to cacti! I’m a curvy (12-14) short arse what size of snag tights should I try? In Falke I’m a Large
I think a D would fit you fine snagtights.com/pages/size-guide

I was also massively put off by the model “Ben”, a man wearing a bra and pants emblazoned with children’s anime patterns - plus Snag were advertising his OnlyFans page which was given in his website link
