@spartan4life - my feet have been swelling quite a bit this last week and a half as well (36+1)- all the compression socks and ice baths work temporarily, but it just comes back the next day. My OB said yesterday that if my face and hands aren't swelling and my BP is fine, it's perfectly normal. Def. check in with your doc but I feel you - I had to buy wide shoes that are too big in the morning but fit just right by 6pm.
@beverlystevens Those things worked the first couple of nights but had no effect last night and my feet were still just as bad this morning. I really want to make it at least another 2-3 weeks so I’m really hoping it’s just normal pregnancy swelling!! I’m waiting for a call back from my doctor’s office.
@knottieamusements I have a mesh laundry bag that I use for bras and other things I don’t dry in the machine. I put the tiny socks and hats in that and zipped it up, worked great to prevent my washer from eating them!
@knottieamusements I was told to buy all the same kind that way you don't have to worry if one gets lost. I got a big bag free from someone so they don't all match. They are in pairs right now but I will probably just grab! Lol unless for pictures and then I will probably buy a new pair so I don't have to worry about finding the match.
I will definitely use a mesh bag; I use one for my footies ever since I had to have a service guy out and discovered that my washer wasn’t draining because it ate one.
I just wasn't sure how to keep them together in the drawer.
Well we try to keep the socks together, but a long time ago I told my dd that two different socks are called “silly socks” and she thinks it totally a thing other people do...
@knottieamusements we put one baby sock inside the other! Like put fingers inside the one sock, one finger pointed in the toe, one in the heel and slide the other over it, so they lay flat. I will grab a pair of Lana's and post on fb to show, if you'd like. But it's literally the easiest way I could figure after taking them out of the mesh bag! Plus less space taken up!
@knottieamusements you could also put them in a bra saver ball (basically the mesh bag idea but a ball)— I was going to try it since I have one for my bras.
