Support tights evenly put pressure from the outside onto the legs and support the connective tissue. They are not just for old people any more. I've enclosed a link where you can find excellent support tights.

HI- PLEASE be careful! You don't want to have a Deep Vein Thrombosis develop, so @ this point, it is PERTINANT that you go see your Physician ASAP! I would never recommend anything to somebody in ur postition how to help this pain. Pain means a problem. There can be blood clots involved, and most importantly you have a baby to think about. Do the right thing, and make an appointment tomorrow. Good Luck and Take Care!

Jobst is the one that comes to mind.
I've included some information on varicose veins and a website with some different compression hoses.

Firstly I'd say visit your gp and get them checked! Try Boots (the chemist) they do a great range of support tights in varying degrees of support.
