While I realize these leggings are fairly inexpensive in relation to other maternity compression leggings out there, I still expected more for the price. I knew about most of the pitfalls from other reviews, but I was really disappointed that the second time I wore them, they developed two large holes in the crotch area. I sewed them up but I already see other areas that look thin and expect that I will have to mend them frequently, which is frustrating. I also don't like that there is a seam running up the center, and they are somewhat tight over the belly, but I am in the 3rd trimester.On the plus side, I really like the fabric which feels thick and high quality, but is still very breathable. These aren't too bad to get on and off and the compression is comfortable, but too light to make a miraculous difference in the pain from vein issues I've developed during pregnancy. That's probably my fault for waiting too long - definitely wish I had tried compression leggings sooner! As other reviewers have mentioned repeatedly, these are thin in the thigh/butt area so you definitely need to wear them under a dress or long tunic. They run a little small but if you follow the size guide from the manufacturer you should be fine.

Got these for the edema (swelling) in my feet and legs. I work long days on my feet and while pregnant my body was really hurting.I felt good in these, but they're like normal tights, they slide down in the crotch. Also, I was 9 months pregnant and didn't like to wear them because getting them on was a huge pain, literally, the swelling in my hands made them ache when I put them on, I would need help from my partner. They're also tough to get on and off for going to the bathroom 11teen times a day. Proceed with caution. I got the same effect from compression socks.

First off I like these tights and am certainly going to keep them. They give great belly support and have eaised up some itchiness from swelling on my calves. I have two problems with them however:They are small besides the expected and needed tightness of compression clothing. I'm 5'4" and weigh around 125 pounds with a 32 week belly hanging around, well within the size chart's 'small' designation. The crotch of these tights does not reach my crotch adding to the already annoying pregnancy waddle. I don't know if sizing up would effect the compressing effect.These are tights, not leggings. They are sheer over the butt in a way that I would not be comfortable wearing them with a long shirt or tunic.

Ordered L but didn't even risk to try them on. Returned them. It is unfortunate they don't have bigger sizes, I really liked the quality. It's not cotton but would work great as compression leggings. Also I think they are a little see through (depending on the size and how much it has to be stretched).

Not too tight, fit comfortably over the stomach. The material is thin so you do want to wear a long shirt or dress with them. Would buy again.

I am so disappointed. I have varicose veins in pregnancy. These “leggings” worked great! Made a huge difference in how my legs felt. I was so excited... until they got a hole in the tush area on the second wearing! I’ve used many other brands of compression stocking through other pregnancies and never had this happen so quickly.

These say something about a flat or invisible seam, but it was REALLY obvious and super bunchy throughout second trimester. At 8 months, it's just starting to smooth out, but under a tight top, you can still see the seem up the middle. Otherwise, they provide good compression. But, see-through at top so can't wear as leggings.

I really like these. I just wish they were a smidge thicker. Cannot be wore a legging pants
