3rd Trimester

One foot/ankle swells more than the other?

Anyone else have this? My right foot and ankle are huge compared to my left. I'm thinking it's because LO is hanging out on my right side. It's really weird because one shoe is tight and the other one is normal.

  • Mine! Both swell up pretty badly, but the right one is usually bigger and swells first.

  • Same for me, my right foot seems like twice the size of my left. I thought it was just me.

  • Add me to that group.
  • My right swells more too. I thought it could be that I favor that leg when im standing.. ? who knows..
  • I have the same problem.  Dr said the LO is cutting off my circulation to my left side--but she didn't have any options to help either.
  • Yesterday was the first day that I have noticed any foot/ankle swelling and my left was definitely more swollen.  My LO likes to stay on my right side, so I'm at a loss on that one.

  • Yep! Happens everyday!  Usually my left ankle is bigger and baby is on the right side mostly.  So who knows why but it sucks and DH barely ever rubs my feet (doesn't like feet)  I LOVE HIM TO DEATH BUT CAN'T HE JUST DEAL WITH IT! 

  • Me too! ?Remember to take off your rings because one day your hands will stay swollen! ?I forgot, so don't make that mistake.
  • When mine swell it is usually just the left one and my Dr. said it is bc LO favors that side... not much you can do.. according to the dr.

  • my right ankle swells more than my left. My left foot is slightly larger than my right so maybe there is equal swelling but less of an area on my right foot?? I'm also right handed and use my right foot to 'start off with' so maybe that is why.
  • My right leg swells a bit more than my left. It's super annoying but my doc said no worries.
  • My left swells more than my right. it was so sad this weekend, I stayed on the couch most the time and I found my beautiful ankles and my feet were pretty again, until my Monday workday, and it was back to Fred Flinstone feet.
