      Compression tights & pregnancy

      Why should expectant mothers wear pregnancy compression stockings?

      Due to hormonal changes in the body, pregnant women are prone to water retention or edema in their legs and feet. Additionally, the extra weight puts pressure on the veins. Especially when you have to sit for long periods or stand for extended periods during this time, your risk of venous issues increases. You can easily counteract these things – with the VeraMeyer compression leggings. 

      Good Reasons for Compression Tights During Pregnancy

      • Maternity Compression Tights: Improved Blood Circulation
        Compression stockings apply graduated pressure to the legs, which counteracts lymphatic congestion and the associated swelling in the legs and feet that often occurs during pregnancy.
      • Pregnancy & Compression Stockings: Prevention of Varicose Veins
        The pressure from compression stockings can help reduce the risk of varicose veins. During pregnancy, blood volume increases, and the growing uterus can make it harder for blood to flow back from the legs to the heart. This causes varicose veins to develop more quickly. Compression stockings can counteract this effect.
      • Tights to Reduce Pain and Discomfort
        Pregnant women often experience pain and discomfort in their legs due to the extra weight and altered blood flow. Compression stockings can help relieve these symptoms.
      • Compression Stockings & Pregnancy: Minimizing Water Retention Water retention and edema in the legs occur very frequently during pregnancy. The compression provided by pregnancy compression tights can help reduce the buildup of excess fluid.
      • Maternity Compression Tights for Connective Tissue Support
        For expectant mothers, connective tissue loosens quickly due to hormonal changes. Compression stockings can support the tissue and minimize the development of stretch marks.

      Compression tights can counteract the risk of thrombosis

      Changes in hormone levels, reduced mobility, weight gain, and increased blood volume can all affect blood clotting. This increases the risk of thrombosis. In the final trimester of pregnancy, the baby is already very large and gradually descends into the pelvis. This frequently causes impaired blood flow in the abdominal and pelvic veins.

      A compression stocking worn during pregnancy applies uniform pressure. Among other benefits, this helps reduce the risk of blood clots. Compression also improves microcirculation, meaning that even the smallest blood vessels receive better blood flow.

      Compression Stockings & Pregnancy: Lymph Fluid Builds Up At Night

      You can wear your compression tights during pregnancy at any time of day or night. Even when lying down, the compression tights can improve lymphatic fluid drainage and overall blood flow. Many pregnant women report that they find it easier and more comfortable to get up in the morning if they wore compression tights overnight.

      Compression stockings for flights during pregnancy

      On long flights, wearing compression tights is generally recommended – not just during pregnancy. Even on shorter flights, you’ll spend a whole lot of time sitting: you wait at the gate for departure, then sit on the plane waiting for takeoff, and of course you spend most of your time seated during the flight as well. Due to your sitting posture and the extra pressure from your abdomen on the veins in your legs, your risk of blood clots and swelling also increases here. With a special maternity support tights you can lean back in your seat much more comfortably and fully enjoy your flight.

      From which month of pregnancy are compression leggings advisable?

      Every pregnancy is different. While one expectant mother’s belly noticeably grows in the first trimester, another woman stays slim until shortly before giving birth. As a result, there is no universal recommendation for when wearing a compression tights during pregnancy is useful and sensible. Many of my pregnant customers start getting used to compression leggings around the 12th week.

      You can still wear compression tights even after pregnancy

      Buying a pair of compression tights is worth it not just during pregnancy, but also for the postpartum period. Your hormonal balance still needs a good while to regulate back to normal. Your abdominal tissue will need support, and compression tights can stabilize your abdominal muscles. During the postpartum recovery period, you’ll also spend a lot of time lying in bed. If you wear compression leggings during this time, you can effectively relieve swollen, sore legs.
