Eww That Smell...

Can you guys smell my feet from where you are?  Seriously, what is with that?  I've never had an issue with this before, but in the last few days, now that my feet are swelling, I've nearly killed my husband by removing my socks on several occasions.  Is anyone else experiencing this, or am I alone in this fabulous grossness?  Sorry this is really kind of nasty...but I had to find out if this was a pregnancy thing or not.

Aww I've never had smelly feet but I think there is some kind of powder you can put in your socks to control the sweating. You dont have any fungus do you if not Talcum powder should be fine

I don't have this issue, but what kind of socks do you wear? Cotton or nylon type socks seem to get funky quick, and don't handle sweat well. Try switching to a merino wool...they even have wool dress socks that are thin, and don't make your feet super hot. Wool is a great moisture wicker, and doesn't get smelly. SmartWool is a great choice. Beware, though...they are spendy, but last a really long time.

In all seriousness, you can also try a pantyliner in your shoes. They are odor and moisture absorbent. I saw it on The Doctors. Haven't tried it yet though.

Nope, no fungus, but I do wear really thin cotton socks.  Maybe I'll look into some wool socks.  This swelling/sweating is not fun and not something I was expecting...
