Im in my 7th month and my feet and ankles have started swelling up bohot, by evening its quite bad. Shoes bhi tight ho gaye. Anything that gave you ladies some relief? planning to mention it to my gynac too.
Oh, swelling is normal, but if it gets too much, definitely tell your gynac during your check-up. Sometimes it's just fluids, but they might want to check your BP too, just to be safe. Better to be careful to avoid bigger costs later, preventative care is key.
I used to soak my feet in warm water with a little rock salt, it helped with the swelling a bit. Also, walking gently and avoiding standing for too long. But if it's sudden or very severe, please, please consult your doctor immediately! Don't take chances.
Haha, edema? More like elephant feet! With twins, my feet swelled so much, I couldn't recognize them. Elevating them whenever possible was key, and actually walking short distances helped circulation. Prepare for those fancy slippers to be your best friend, you'll need them!
Edema is quite common. I found elevating my feet whenever I sat down, even at my desk, really helped. And stay hydrated, paradoxically! Also, compression socks were a lifesaver for long hours, definitely recommend.
Arey, paon mein sujan toh ho hi jaati hai. Humare yahaan toh bolte hain paon thoda ooncha karke so jao, takiya laga ke. Aur haan, namak kam khana! Thoda walking bhi kar lena, aaram aayega, sab theek ho jayega.
