Before your EDD - treat yourself to a pedicure!

Hi fellow March moms,

One thing I wish I had done but ran out of time for since little Henry arrived 3 1/2 weeks early...can't tell you how many times I've looked down at my feet (usually while sitting in the glider nursing or pumping- I do a lot of that these days!) and wished that I had pretty toes!

Just one little tip I thought I'd share! Good luck to all on your upcoming EDDS!

Re: Before your EDD - treat yourself to a pedicure!

  • Congrats on your little guy, momma!  How are you doing?  I've never been into pedicures/manicures, but maybe that will change once my lo arrives.

  • I'm being induced on Thursday.  I got a mani and a pedi this afternoon!  I'm glad I did.

    Neither have I- I mean, I like the idea of it but I rarely get around to doing it. Seriously- I stare at my feet and just wish my toes were pretty! Plus I feel like it's hard to stay hydrated- maybe from BFing?- so my heels are cracked and dry. Just think about it...makes you feel pretty at a time that you might otherwise feel sorta dumpy and sore!

    I'm good-- barely have time to be on thebump b/c this is really much more constant than I imagined! I never understood why new moms were always like 'i only have time for one thing - so i have to choose eat, sleep or shower- and usually i choose sleep.'-- now I get it! I haven't showered since Saturday!

    That said, Henry is awesome and in some ways it has really just worked out fine that he surprised us so early...not what I would have chosen- I'm way more of a planner and I did totally freak out when they told me (at my 36 week appt) that they wanted me to go to the hospital...but that said, he is healthy and he is here!! And I've got nearly a month under my belt and yesterday was my EDD..crazy...

    How are you feeling? Besides eager to meet your baby...

    I'm so happy that things are going so well for you! I am eager and still very anxious and nervous and still have a hard time believing I may be holding MY baby in a few short weeks.  Physically, I'm not too bad (I see you saw my post below, lol).  I'm glad you dropped in. I am sure you're incredibly busy.

  • I was totally wanting to get one this week and after seeing your post I left work  early and went to the mall. The pedi felt awesome on my swollen feet. I'm glad I went today because I dont think my little guy is going to wait much longer.
