Ladies 1 Pair MilkTEDS Maternity Compression Opaque Tights

Swelling, or oedema, of the ankles and legs is a common issue during pregnancy, experienced by over half of all women. It’s triggered by an increase of pressure in your leg veins, and by the extra pressure resulting from the growth of your baby on the large veins in your groin. Hot weather, tiredness and water retention only adds to the problem, and the swelling usually worsens through the day, particularly if you spend a lot of time on your feet.Treat yourself to the relief offered by luxuriously soft and comfortable Milkteds® Maternity Compression Opaque Tights. These high quality compression tights support your bump and give your legs a much-needed circulation boost. Milkteds® work silently, throughout your pregnancy, to help prevent tiredness, swelling and even varicose veins in your feet, ankles and legs.The 16-18 mm Hg, British Standard Class I graded pressure provided by the tights – higher at the ankle, decreasing as you go further up the legs – puts pressure on the veins and increases the blood circulation back to the heart.The other, unique benefit of Milkteds® Maternity Compression Opaque Tights is their milk fibre construction – real drinking milk, refined to milk protein strands that contain natural amino acids, able to actively nourish and care for skin. It’s antibacterial, anti-fungal and hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs and evaporates moisture, keeping your skin soft, dry and healthy.Milkteds® Maternity Compression Opaque Tights are manufactured in Italy, with a patent pending design (by a UK doctor) that includes their Stay-Put comfort waistband, a stretchable, supportive maternity panel with flat body seams and a cotton comfort gusset. The heels and toes are reinforced for durable wear. Milkteds® Maternity Compression Opaque Tights, and the other Everyday compression tights and socks in their range, will look after you and your legs right through your pregnancy and afterwards. These luxury tights even come packaged in a cute little milk carton design box!(04/15)
