My feet have started puffing up by evening, especially after standing in the kitchen. Im 30 weeks. My slippers feel tight now. Just curious why this happens to so many of us.
Some swelling is normal, but if it comes suddenly, in your face or hands, with headache or blurry vision, pls call ur doctor right away. That can be a BP thing and needs checking. Dont wait.
Beta this is common, the body holds water. We used to soak feet in slightly warm water and rest with legs raised on a pillow. Less salt also helps. But agar bahut zyada ho to doctor ko dikhao.
Sitting at a desk all day made mine worse. I started keeping a small stool under my desk to raise my legs and walked a bit every hour. Loose chappals also helped a lot at work.
It's the extra fluid and the weight putting pressure on your legs, totally normal in later months. Keep your feet up when you sit and drink lots of water. Mine were balloons by the end honestly.
Last trimester mein feet swell up so much na. It's the fluid and pressure, haan na. I used to lie down with legs up against the wall, felt so nice. Just watch if it becomes sudden or too much.
