What up, cankles?

Today is the first day I have experienced them.  They are kind of funny, and I like making my H look at them.  I don't think he finds them as funny..he's kind of scared.  I'm hoping the water retention stays in my feet and away from my face.

Re: What up, cankles?

  • I had the fattest feet and cankles last week...I started wearing flip flops instead of stuffing my feet into shoes and putting them up in the evenings and they are back to normal! I didn't think i'd see my normal feet again until after I gave birth.

  • Me too! I bought a pair of shoes (flats that slide on) a whole size too big and that seemed to help my feet.  Much like the pp said about flip flops.

  • My feet are slightly swollen, but really overall, they aren't bad. I still wear sneakers (that I can even put on myself! hehe). My ob says to me today, squeezing my ankles (which are not cankles!), "A little swollen, but not bad." I felt the need to point out the sneakers and he laughed and said that at this point most of his patients are wearing flip flops!
