I can't see pics on my work computer, and can't post a pic of my feet (which are certainly swollen), but I would like to say that I went from a shoe size 6 that I had been my entire adult life, to a 7.5, and I have a feeling I'm going to need to go up to at least an 8 wide after this baby. Same thing happened to my mom. Boo!
After 3 failed Clomid+TI cycles, DD was conceived with IUI#1
My feet and ankles have been really swollen the last few days. Typically I can get it to go down a little bit with elevation and a cool house. Last night I couldn't get them to go down no matter what I tried. So that with decreased movement from LO and some regular, though not painful, braxton hicks ended me up in L&D. Thankfully LO was fine and no pre-e!
@MrsRahl I'm going to have to try that, I've gotten to the point where they don't go down completely, even with evelation, and by the end of the day I feel like they're going to burst.
Oh man. These are my puppies at like 32 weeks. They've gotten SO much worse. But I'm running around right now so I'll update a 38 week pic later
I'm just going to say that that second picture did not register as a foot/heel lol
I know. It freaked my midwife out so much that she had me do a 24 urine collection even though I had no protein and low BP. Came out fine, apparently I just have the feet of a swollen polar bear. Went from a size 8 to barely squeezing into 10.5 flip flops.
Eta: aaaaaah I got ya now. Guess who obviously hasn't seen one of those in awhile. This girl <---
This is great! I'm sitting in my car waiting for an unscheduled ultrasound so here ya go! I would RATHER take a walk in the park across the street while I wait, but these feet aren't good for walking right now *sob* My feet are so monstrous--even flip-flops leave marks. I got this pedicure 2 weeks ago--still looks good! The rest of the foot? *shudder*
Yes mine were like last week because I was working in the office and can't really put my feet up. My OB started me on bed rest last week and since then my feet are up 22 hour a day. Now My feet are waaaaaay better... Just really wrinkly looking from not being constantly swollen anymore.
Sorry it's so dark. This is just the one, that I can reach... Went from size 7.5 pre-pregnancy to having size 10 sandals starting to strain..... So glad to know this is normal, it seemed to happen suddenly one day for me. Normal-ish feet, then BAM, little sausages at the end of my legs....
Mine are not as bad as some of you. Today not too bad. Worse the other day.
Only flip flops fit me and only a few pairs.
I need to soak them in Epsom salts again. That usually feels so good. Went for a pedicure two weeks ago. Hope to go again before I go on for my section.
My right foot is alway more swollen. Hubby had to cut my toe ring off two weeks ago.
I just got home from my son's swim meet. My feet feel SO tight! I think they got worse from this afternoon. *whimper* Just to give you an idea, when I'm not 9 months pregnant, I have bony feet.
This is from the last week while still working- on my feet allllll day for an 11 hr workday. Finally they've gone down this week to half the size since slowing down at work and getting ready for maternity leave! Yikes!! Sorry upside-down photo!
Omg I found my tribe!!! The heat here in Singapore makes for some pretty big feet. I'm drinking like 4 L of water a day at that kinda helps. If they are really bad I'm lucky and go for a swim. It's morning for me here but I promise to contribute by th end of the day. I thought yesterday was a good day because I could fit a finger under my Birkenstock strap Lol
My calves, ankles and feet are ginormous! Like a PP, my doctor saw them and had me do a full pre-e work up even though my BP is low and no protien in my urine. I have extremely high arches normally, now I'm flat footed. It hurts so bad!
Re: Fat Feet Friday
Uh, yes. Lol. I'd be offended but it feels so good to have them soaked and massaged that idgaf.
Mine aren't fat enough yet, but by the end of the day they will be awesome! Mine have never been as bad as yours @lovetolive614
