Dressing comfortably during pregnancy is a must for many mums to be.
Maternity leggings provide comfort and style during pregnancy. They are essential for any wardrobe and can be worn whether you're going to brunch, the gym or popping to the shops.
Maternity leggings are definitely worth investing in as normal leggings may become uncomfortable around the waist as your belly grows. Plus, these leggings can also be worn postpartum, meaning they will last beyond the nine months of pregnancy.
Women usually start to switch to maternity wear when they are about five months pregnant, although the timeline is different for every woman. You can definitely get away with wearing normal leggings during the early stages of your pregnancy, but as your bump grows, maternity leggings will fit more comfortably and easily.
There are so many maternity leggings on the market and it can be hard to find the best ones for your needs, whether that be maternity sports leggings, stylish leggings, or casual leggings that you can wear every day. Read on for our list of the best maternity leggings around, we have also categorised them so you can find the right ones for you.
Being comfy whilst pregnant is key, you could also try one of these pregnancy pillows for a more comfortable night's sleep. Or if you want more information whilst expecting, check out these pregnancy books.
