Supportive around the pelvis and belly but definitely not long enough in the legs for me. I am 172cm tall, and have varicose veins from previous pregnancies that are around my right ankle and up my leg to the knee, so I need full length leggings.
The length of the leggings hits above my ankles and causes swelling at my foot. If I pull the legging down then the crotch is hanging low and it's uncomfortable to walk. An extra 5-10 cms would've been perfect to get them over my ankles and feel a lot better. Will be returning them unfortunately.
Thankyou for your honest feedback, greatly appreciated. We actually previously ran an 'over ankle' length pregnancy legging to cater for taller ladies, but unfortunately they weren't popular enough to sustain as a product line. All the best with your pregnancy and please let us know if we can assist further down the track :)
I wouldn't have believed that anything could do this, let alone something that actually felt better on than off. Their effectiveness does linger for a while after taking them off too. I couldn't make a pessary work, but with these on I can. The thing is that I just don't need one any more. The briefs seem to correct the layout down there without exacerbating constipation & they afford more control of #1's & #2's.
Wish I'd had these in the early days, they're great. That heavy feeling could be severe enough to make me google "can you die from turning inside out". I'm still getting it - years later - whenever I'm sick or run down. These svelte knickers really give my pelvic floor a supportive lift. It's comfortable and comforting as I straggle after kiddo/s, draped in vehicles/toys/discarded clothing/bags of dirty nappies/"treasures" etc etc, when camel toe is the last thing on my mind.
I'll be honest - things got a bit messy down there after giving birth. Although it's been a shemozzle for years, these seem to kind of reset my whole pelvic situation. And not just the vag stuff - my poor colorectal parts are working better. Sooooooooooo worth the $.
They keep slipping down, so dont support enough, i think its the fabric being slippery/silky
