why the periodic elements?
We believe confidence and comfort should never be defined by a number. Our sizing is inspired by the periodic table instead of traditional labels, to remove the stigma around sizing and create a more inclusive, empowering experience.
step 2
measure your hips
Your jeans size and compression size can differ, so a quick measure is the easiest way to get it right.

designed to grow with you
They may feel snug at first, but the belly panel and flexible seams stretch with you through to full term.
Between sizes and 20 weeks or more (or popped early!)? Size up.
Compression can feel a little different to what you're used to. They should feel snug and supportive (firmer than your usual activewear), but never restrictive or uncomfortable.

firm to pull on, secure once on
Your hips can change during pregnancy, so always go by your current measurements rather than your pre-pregnancy size.
Between sizes? We recommend sizing up.
Our targeted abdominal compression means they can feel quite firm as you pull them over your thighs and hips. Don't be afraid to stretch the waistband! Once they're in place, they should feel snug, secure and supportive, never restrictive or uncomfortable.

Osteopath & co-founder
After treating thousands of pregnant and postpartum women, our co-founders Dan and Ash knew exactly what mums needed through their motherhood journey: real support for their body.
We wanted to extend our care beyond the treatment room. So we set out to create compression wear with real purpose, designed to support your body through pregnancy and postpartum. But the fabric also had to be buttery soft, never slippery and super flattering, so you look and feel great while you're being supported.Dan & Ash

Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 36 reviews.
The postpartum tights feel like I'm wearing the most supportive, second skin. The compression is perfect without feeling too restrictive and the material is super soft which makes them comfortable to wear all day. Feeling the support around my back, pelvis and abdomen has been especially important for recovery and I love the fact that I'll be able to wear them for many years to come! The team were also amazing at ensuring I was happy with the right sizing - one very happy customer over here! :)
I'm 7 days post c section and these tights are amazing. They are supportive in all the right places and were easy to get on post c section. It was immediate relief from the support as soon as I put them on. The helpful toilet paper measuring guide is brilliant and spot on. I highly recommend these.
I tried three different brands of compression tights during my postpartum journey, and these were without question the best of the bunch! The ideal length for a tall gal like me, such smooth and comfy material, and the compression around my tummy was the perfect fit! I highly recommend these to anyone looking for compression tights (I also used the pregnancy tights and absolutely loved them too!)
I'm always on the search for holy grail products, and these postpartum tights are one of those for me. Three months postpartum and I wear them virtually every day; so supportive, comfy, flattering and practical (pockets! SO handy for stashing my keys, ear buds and phone for walks with baby in the carrier). I love them so much I bought two to have on 'continuall' rotation!
I was keen to try the postpartum recovery tights for my 3rd baby after I experienced prolapse with my 2nd. I had tried a well known brand of recovery tights, and I liked them just enough but started researching to see what others were available. I came across the continuall brand and liked the look of them on the website, and ummed and ahhed for a bit before deciding to order them. Boy am I glad I did! These tights are amazing - they are comfortable and supportive. They don't have any awkward slipperyness to them, or odd placed seams (so many of the other brands seem to?!). These are tights that you can wear anytime. And to find ones that you feel good in during postpartum is wonderful.
The best postpartum tights I’ve tried so far. Super comfortable & really supportive around my abdomen. I had a 4 finger abdominal separation post birth and 3 months on it’s only 2 fingers and honestly think it’s because of these tights. Been wearing them every day! Getting the shorts for summer!
I wasn't sure how comfortable compression could feel until I wore these continuall postpartum tights. They feel so soft and cosy but I'm supported at the same time. Love them
These tights have become my uniform.. I am ALWAYS wearing them! They are super comfortable and look great. Love that they are designed by osteos - they provide an ideal level of compression and support in the right places.,
I purchased the pregnancy tights and had such a great experience, so got the postpartum tights. This is 12 days post birth. I have been wearing them for the last few days and have felt so supported, especially in the core area. There are no seams over my caesarean incision. The gradual compression on the lower legs and ankles really helps as I am not back to usual level of activity. Highly recommend!
I have worn these the last 2 weeks after giving birth. I bought a ‘silver’ fit. I was a bit cautious that it was going to be too tight as after my last baby I just couldn’t wear the ones I bought as they were uncomfortable. I really feel like these have supported me with the right balance of compression and comfort! Have worn them every day!
Good quality material and true to size
Store owner replied: Thank you!!
Love them, so comfy for all my winter morning walks and to know that they’re silently working for me whilst I’m wearing them is even better!
Store owner replied: That's so great to hear Sam! xx
Love these tights! Perfect for postpartum. Great customer service too thanks!
Store owner replied: Thank you Lauren!! Appreciate the feedback xx
Best customer service
Store owner replied: ❤️❤️
Easily the most comfortable postpartum tights out there. Compressive but not too tight. Have worn them daily since birth and have now bought a second pair. Love them so much. I was on the cusp of two sizes and went with the size bigger as I don’t like anything too tight and the fit is perfect. The pockets are also perfect for everyday mum life.
Store owner replied: Thank you so much Katherine, this is so lovely to read. We’re so glad the postpartum tights have been comfortable while still giving you the support you need. Hearing they’ve become part of your daily mum life means the world to us. And yes, the pockets are a must. Excuse this late reply.!!
I got both the postpartum tights and mini shorts and lived in both for the first few months after my c section. Comfortable and stylish, but also gave me so much confidence starting back running and exercise classes. Recommend to everyone on their postpartum journey!
Perfect! No front seam. No camel toe! Comfy all day!
After having twins I was blown away by how well these leggings reduced my fluid. I also had severe abdominal separation and these leggings also helped with that. Cannot recommend more. Customer service has also been amazing!!
I absolutely love my new leggings. They provide amazing support to my tummy and lower back following my c-section.
Great customer service. I went copper size (16) Based on measurements I tried a 14 but after trying them, a 16 was a better fit due to the compression style of the garment. I’m 178cm and they fit just above the ankle (hips 115cm)
Great length and firmness without being uncomfortable. Love that they look like regular sport leggings with pockets. They don’t roll down either!
This is my fifth purchase from Continuall! I really wanted to stay active and continue running through my pregnancy and the Continuall tights have allowed me to do so. I was wearing my pregnancy tights so much (and shorts while running!) that I purchased a second pair and sized up to keep me comfortable right up until I went into labour. Postpartum their range has kept me just as comfortable. After an unplanned C-section I love how the tights and shorts don’t rub against my surgical site. The compression gives just the right amount of support and the back panel has helped me to avoid a lot of strain and discomfort in my lower back. Thank you Continuall - I have been recommended your tights to everyone I know!
I love the comfort and support of my leggings. I’m 53 and we’ll past pregnancy but I loved the idea of not wearing leggings that cut into my waist…..these are brilliant!
Am 4 months pp and am loving these tights. They help me feel a little more put together than just regular tights while my body is constantly changing. Would recommend!
I’ve tried quite a few different brands of compression tights over the years and throughout my four pregnancies. I’ve also had to really rely on them because of issues with veins. The continual brand is the most comfortable I have worn. They are lovely and soft, yet still nice and firm and supportive. I purchased two long leggings in the postpartum type and I’m really glad I did as I have been living in them and it’s great to have a pair while the other pair are in the wash. I’ve already recommended the brand to friends and family that are pregnant or post partum.
These postpartum leggings have been my savour after having a caesarean. I wore the pregnancy ones through my pregnancy and moved to these post pregnancy. They make me feel so supported and have assisted my recovery. Thank you so much for creating such amazing leggings!
Have been wearing them non stop since birth. So much support in the right places and can tell it’s already helping my PP recovery!
These postpartum compression tights have been a game changer - I wish I had known about these for my first pregnacy.
Followed the measurement guide for my size and fit is perfect. Very comfortable, I wish I bought earlier!!
Honestly the best postpartum tights I've had so far! Super comfortable whilst providing amazing support
The continuall postpartum tights are incredible! They are the only tights I have been able to wear after my caesarean, so comfortable yet supportive too! They abdominal compression has really helped to support my recovery.
Like a supportive hype-girl for everywhere below the bra 🙌🏽 The postpartum leggings were released just before my second cesarean and compared to the leggings that I wore after my first cesarean/birth, the difference was HUGE- they don’t ride down, the strong support around my lower back, the firm pressure against my scar and the stability I felt when I wore them…I don’t think I would even put them in the same category of anything else on the market. They were slapped on almost as soon as my baby came out and 9 months later, I still feel great in them. My husband calls them my Beyonce pants because of confidence I walk with when I have them on. Also, the best baby shower gift for friends that is thoughtful and practical! Xx
I have worn these tights after having my baby and love how supported I feel. Holding me in where I need that compression. They are so comfortable that I can lay down and feed my baby wearing them. Would definitely recommend to anyone after having a baby.
The perfect balance between compression and comfort. Miles ahead of the first pair of post partum tights I purchased (and never wore). These hold me in while being flexible enough to exercise in. Absolutely love them.
Fabric feels so comfortable and they supported by tummy and lower back after having my baby. Would definitely recommend
Good to know
