Anyone wear compression pantyhose during pregnancy to prevent spider veins?
Genetically I am doomed to get spider veins. I have never seen my mom wear shorts, and I don’t want to be like that. I am 1 month into my third pregnancy and am starting to get those lovely little purple veins on my legs. I know that if I don’t do something quick they are going to get darker. I know all about exercise, elevating your feet, bla, bla, bla. Even if I do all of that I am doomed genetically (I can probably reduce the amount I get by doing all of that stuff, but not stop them all). So has anyone had luck with those compression support pantyhose that claim to prevent spider veins? If so, which ones are the best? There are many online stores with different prices. Are the $83 ones better than the $25 ones? Do they even help?
The $25.00 are probably just as good as the richie fritzy priced ones. Do not forget the vitamin E oil on your “feeders” and tummy to stop the stretch marks. I remembered my belly, forgot the milk-makers. I don’t have to tell you where I got the stretch marks!
