My pet is showing now at 18 weeks and jeans feel so tight. Leggings are the only comfy thing for me. But are the tight ones ok or do they press on the belly? anyone wearing them daily?
My mother suggested wearing loose nighties, but my doctor said comfortable, stretchy cotton leggings are absolutely fine. Just choose maternity wear that supports your belly without compressing it.
Yes, they are perfectly safe as long as they aren't too tight around your belly. I wore maternity leggings throughout my second trimester while managing my diabetes diet, and they were a lifesaver.
I only wore maternity leggings with a super soft, stretchy over-the-belly panel. They didn't put any pressure on my stomach and were the most comfortable thing during my third trimester.
Of course they are safe, dear, just make sure the elastic is loose and breathable. Your comfort is the most important thing right now, so avoid tight waistbands that might press on your belly.
