Forgot to say that I used to get my husband to massage my feet every night and push upwards towards the knee. That always got the swelling down and made my feet look normal for a while but they always went right back up again after about 30 mins!
this may sound a daft question but are u drinking enough ? I had swollen ankles a few weeks ago and my midwife said although it sounds daft u can get swollen ankles because u arent taking in enough fluid..She said u need to be drinking 1.5 litres a day
Yeah ive been mega thirsty so been making sure im drinking a 1.5 litre bottle of water everyday... its weird aint it that being dehydated causes water retention tho u'd think it wud be other way round wudnt u
OMG Jo, i wasn't expecting to see them looking THAT swollen
When my midwife asks me if i have any swelling i say sometimes as sometimes it feels like my toes are like sausages, well my swelling is NOTHING, you poor thing, i can't imagine how you are feeling with them but lets hope bubba pops soon so they'll go down for you to
Jo, I have the upmaost sympathy for you because mine were exactly like that all the way through, no matter what I did. My OH even called me Princess Fiona (from the Shrek movies!)!
The good news is that about a week after I had Clark they just went down, it was so funny I couldn't stop staring at them when it happened because they looked so thin!!!
