Swollen feet and ankles?

[Durhamchance]

I had really bad swollen feet in my last week of pregnancy and my MW warned me it would probably get worse after the birth. I'm drinking plenty, moving about, flexing my ankles and putting my feet up when I can but I still have elephants feet that only just fit into my boots!

Any idea when they might get back to normal?

I had little swelling during pregnancy but after wards I had the aforementioned elephants feet - it took a couple of weeks to settle

I had horrendous swelling from my ankles upto my tummy it took about two weeks to go back down and I lost about a stone overnight! Congratulations on your LO x

Ok, hopefully I'll be able to put my own socks on before OH goes back to work then!!

I had the same for about two weeks afterwards. Good luck with it all ! Xx

They seem to be going down gradually now, and I managed to put my own socks on yesterday
