Maternity Compression Stockings

Pregnancy raises blood volume and slows the return flow from the legs, which is why heaviness, aching and swelling are so common from the second trimester on. Maternity compression pantyhose are built for exactly that — graduated pressure through the legs and a soft panel that grows with the belly rather than pressing on it. We stock Bauerfeind VenoTrain Micro Maternity, mediven Plus and mediven Elegance Maternity, and Sigvaris Soft Opaque Maternity in 20-30 and 30-40 mmHg medical grades, open and closed toe.

Put them on in the morning before swelling builds, and size by your measurements — the charts are on every product's Size & Fit tab. Compression at these levels is commonly reimbursed by Canadian extended health benefit plans with a prescription, so ask us for an insurance estimate before you order if you plan to claim.
