**Bluey** "I thought I had pregnancy all figured out until I hit the bump of being overdue. The endless questions about when my baby would arrive felt like a never-ending game of 'When’s it Due?'

My Emamaco leggings were like a supportive cheerleader, helping me manage my busy life and stay active, even when I felt like I could barely keep my eyes open."

**Claire** "Unsolicited advice and comments were like an endless loop of unwanted commentary. The 'you think you’re tired now!' and 'oh, you’ll see!' chatter was overwhelming. My Emamaco leggings were my personal fortress of comfort, helping me focus on my own journey and reminding me that it’s okay to feel overwhelmed by the external noise."

**Daina** "Hip and back pain were like uninvited party crashers at my pregnancy celebration. It’s something that’s not often discussed, but it's a real challenge.
