Im 7 months now and my feet have become so puffy by evening, even my chappals feel tight yaar. Sitting whole day at work doesnt help. What worked for you to bring the swelling down?
Please make sure to check with your gynac if the swelling is sudden or very severe. High blood pressure can also cause sudden swelling, so it's always best to be safe.
Soham's mom here! For swelling, the best thing is to reduce salt intake slightly, avoid sitting with crossed legs, and drink plenty of water to flush out fluids.
My toddler keeps me on my feet now, but I still remember how huge my feet got in my third trimester! Don't worry, it completely goes away within a week of delivery.
With both my pregnancies, keeping my feet elevated and wearing comfortable flats was the only solution. Don't stand for too long at a stretch, it only makes it worse.
Haha, I literally had to buy shoes two sizes bigger because of the swelling! Just treat your feet like royalty, keep them up, and make your husband give you gentle massages.
