Swollen feet?

Question

Hey ladies! I’m 32 weeks tomorrow and literally every shoe I own no longer fits me :( what should I do? I still work and am planning on working all the way until until 37-38 weeks. If that off the table? It’s like I can’t stand for long periods of time either or my feet turn into toads 😓

Answer

Talk to your doctor about working until then and see what they recommend but get looser shoes in the meantime so you’re a little more comfortable. My first baby made my feet swell the last month of pregnancy but thankfully I lived in Florida at the time so I just wore flip flops 😅

Answer

I have had significant swelling in the feet and extending up legs, intermittently since 24 weeks and worse / more consistent since around 29 weeks. Much worse if I haven’t had enough fluids or on particularly hot days,medically everything is normal I live in a place with average temperature at this time of year 42 degrees Celsius which is about 107.6f. Have found the compression socks help, drinking enough water but wearing my widest shoes at the moment don’t think there’s a hope of getting my normal shoes on! Or for a while!!

Answer

My feet have some swelling my husband got me black moccasins they are two sizes bigger than what I used to wear but so comfortable and easy to slip on. I always went to get a pedicure recently because honestly my poor feet really needed it

Answer

My feet got massive with my first. The only socks I wore were compression socks. I had a desk job so I wasn’t on them much and they were still massive. I tried to elevate as much as possible and drink as much water as I could. This pregnancy I have some swelling here and there and I’m chasing after my 18 month old. I have been added epsom salt that my doctor recommended into a bath 2-3 times a week, I love baths so this is easy for me, and idk if that is helping this time around or what but I haven’t had to wear compression socks yet. I’m currently 32 weeks and I believe the swelling began around 30 weeks with my first. I also had like 2 pairs of shoes I could wear during my first, ones that laced up so I could loosen them. I did buy a pair that was half a size bigger and one pair that was the same size but wides vs not and those helped the last few weeks!

Answer

My feet swell with every pregnancy and it starts earlier each time. I always end up just getting wider or bigger shoes to accommodate my pillow top feet through the rest of my pregnancy. This time and last time I’ve been using sketchers memory foam slip on‘s they are stretchy and work with my fat feet and they’re comfy. Sometimes when I Wake up the swelling has gone down but lately they just stay swollen.
