My Shoe Dilemma: To Buy or Not to Buy Clicky Poll

edited July 2014 in June 2014 Moms
Even though this last LO was my third, there are whole new experiences going on here. Not only did I find some of my shoes no longer fit during pregnancy but others no longer fit now. My biggest dilemma is my beloved running shoes. I made a big investment in those just last spring and after 2 miles of walking on 3 different occasions, they still hurt my feet. I'll add that I am 10 weeks PP too.

I want to poll my fellow BMB mama's to see if I should just get another pair, tough it out or wait a little while longer. (side note - if it's get a new pair, this will be my proof to show Hubs)

    If you're going to use them to workout, you really need shoes that fit properly. It's a safety thing!
    This.  You could injure yourself by not wearing properly fitting shoes and then it will be more expensive and painful in the long run!

    I was literally in the same situation last week. I bought a new pair of sneakers. I know I should probably wait, but getting back into shape right now is the best thing I can do for myself, physically and mentally, so it's worth the little extra cash.  I was in pain in my regular stuff, too.  Go for it!

    I'm not a big shopper but I still voted to go shop because having good foot support is so, so important, both in running and every day crap.

    Did they hurt before, or just after? If it was both, perhaps trying new sole support might help.

    If it's just after, then I think it's time to buy some new ones. I used some for a long time that hurt my feet and I thought it was normal until I did a run analysis and actually got fitted and it made a huge difference, so I don't think I could deal with ill fittng shoes again.

    Thanks ladies! I'll be shoe shopping soon! Especially since I have a 5k next weekend. Even though we'll be walking since we're taking LO, can't be having sore feet! My mom will happily now inherit my year old Brooks that only have about 6 months wear and tear on them ;)
