Compression stockings?
Does anyone wear compression stockings? I really really really don't want to wear them, but my OB recommends it b/c of varicose veins and clotting. I hate wearing regular stockings when not pregnant!
Any recommendations for brands that are good or brands that are bad?
TIA

Re: Compression stockings?
with last pregnancy I got the long socks that go up to the knee. I either got them at the maternity store or the store where they sell medical uniforms (scrubs)... I hate anything around my waist so those did the trick for me.

I got a knee high pair of Dr. Scholl's compression stockings at walmart and they've been fabulous!

Re: Compression stockings?
I had to wear them b/c I had severe swelling in my legs and feet during the 3rd trimester. My doctor had me order them from aboutbabiesinc.com. They were expensive, but they definitely helped.

Re: Compression stockings?
I had bad varicose veins and worked long shifts on my feet. As much as I thought I was going to hate them, they actually made my legs feel so much better!
