Lately my feet keep going numb, mostly when im sitting for long. Im in my third trimester now. Is this a pregnancy thing na or something to worry about? Will check with doc but wanted to hear from you all.
Yes, it's quite common when the baby's weight increases. Try soaking your feet in warm water with rock salt and avoid tight footwear. But do tell your doctor during your next visit so they can check your blood circulation.
Oh wow, I didn't know pregnancy could cause numbness in feet! Is it like a tingling sensation? I will keep this in mind and ask my doctor if it happens to me when I conceive.
Actually, yes, yaar! I had this numbness in my feet during my third trimester. Gynac said it's because of water retention pressing on nerves. But definitely mention it to your doctor to rule out any circulation issues.
Yes, it can happen due to increased weight and pressure on your lower back nerves. Gentle stretching and keeping your feet elevated helps a lot, but only do light walks if your doctor has allowed it.
My doctor explained that fluid retention and the pressure of the growing uterus on your pelvic nerves can cause numbness or tingling in the feet. She advised me to avoid crossing my legs and keep them elevated on a pillow. If it is accompanied by sudden swelling, contact your doctor immediately.
Haan na, mere feet mein bhi bilkul sunn ho jata tha pressure ki wajah se. Try not to stand for too long. If the numbness is very frequent, please ask your gynac once.
