Another joy of pregnancy.....
I have developed a nasty loooking varocose vein in my upper thigh leading up into the pelvic region...nice!!!
Am 33 wks, however it has been bothering me for the last month or so - aching etc.
Has anyone experienced this, if so did compresion tights help with the aching? Loath to use them as we head into summer, however anything to ease the aching.... and its a bit difficult to put your legs up at work!!
Any other tips?? Gawd I hope they go away after the baby comes

I had NASTY ones after my second - and I would see them every time I lunged and did my stretches. I would scream in fear everytime I saw them.
The disappeared after I had my baby - but ALREADY they are coming back with this 3rd pregnancy!

I'm getting them too and am only in my 26th week!!! Where do you get maternity hose from? I couldn't find any from Bumps to Babes or mothercare or Marks & Spencer? Alternatively, I saw recommendations of "flight socks" which help- does anyone know where I can get them? Also, can anyone recommend a good back support for pregnancy?

back support -
I got this thing from sogo - a "belly bra" of sorts - your belly is the boob and you stick it in this "cup" support. It's by the brand "gennie" and it's on the floor with maternity and children's stuff.
