Running Shoes - feet growing

I work in a gym and wear tennis shoes all day at work and then during my own personal workouts. I've always measured at size 8 and wore 8.5 for running shoes. I've been getting blisters on my toes the last couple of days, and my shoes have felt very tight, so I went in to get re-measured yesterday. I measured between 9 and 9.5. I know pregnancy can make your joints relax and that most women go up a size or so during/after pregnancy. I guess I just wasn't expecting it to be this soon (13+2), and I definitely wasn't expecting it to be so sudden and so drastic... Has anyone else experienced this? Should I expect them to continue to grow? Running shoes are expensive!

    Hmmm...that is a good question. I was pregnant in the summer with my first, so if my feet grew, I didn't really notice it (I wear flip flops the whole summer most years). Maybe you could find a brand that is a little less expensive during pregnancy in case they grow again?

    Also, I just picked up a pair of Fila brand running shoes from Costco for $20 not too long ago. Perhaps you'll be able to find a similar deal?

    Mine grew and grew and grew. I was a size 6 before my first pregnancy, and ended at a size 10. They never went back to previous size. They grew half a size last pregnancy. I hope they don't grow more with this one. Also, my arch fell significantly with my first pregnancy.
