OMG I have no ankles

My feet and ankles are so swollen it looks crazy. I ran errands for about 4 hours tonight, totally overdid it, walking around most of the time. I even scared myself thinking I was going into labor. My stomach got really tight and I had period cramps on the way home. It's completely gone away now that I'm lying down. These last few days are officially the WORST part of pregnancy. I have this urge to just get things done, yet my body wants me so sit on my butt and do nothing.

    Ha!  Been there for over a week.  I want to walk but I did half a mile today and am paying for it now.


    RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me.
    You made my wedding day complete.

    I was stuck in flip flops the last 7 weeks of my pregnancy. Flip flops only through numerous ice and snow storms. Took 3 weeks pp for them to return to normal! The end is Near! Promise!

    I did this late in the game too, I ran to a few stores and by the checkout at target I thought I was going to die! I practically ran to the car to sit down from the cramps they were so bad. That for me was on a Thursday, i started contractions then saturday and had her on Sunday after, just one day before induction was coming.. Hope it's the same for you and hopefully you'll have a squishy by Friday!! ( : hope you were able to rest and get some relief!!

    I hear you girl! But honestly the more I am walking the better I feel! I was having a lot of swelling a week or so ago. Since then I pushed through it and have continued to walk (about 2 miles a day now) and the swelling isn't as bad. I agree with previous posters, elevate! I am hoping all this walking leads to a speedy delivery.
