My Ankles Hurt!

And I know I can't possibly be the only one. I don't even have ankle bones anymore. =( What remedies are you ladies using to take down the swelling? Anything other than putting them up and icing them? That's all I've been able to think of.

    We are due on the same day and I feel the same way.  I just have been propping my feet up at night when I sleep.  In the morning they are fine and then by the end of the day I look like I have two broken ankles!

    As soon as I get to work, I take my shoes off and prop my feet up on the trash can under my desk (flipped upside down.) Works for me!

    Watch your salt/sodium intake, drink LOTS of water (L&D nurse said 12 cups a day - WTH!?) and keep them propped up as much as you can. I don't know if it helps with the swelling, but my feet sure do feel better when DH rubs them - sometimes he'll rub my whole calf too.
