My feet are not swollen yet but I keep hearing about it from everyone. Just want to know around which week ye usually start hota hai so I can be ready. Im in 5th month right now.
Oh, my feet looked like bloated potatoes by the 7th month! I had to literally live in my husband's oversized slippers. It's totally normal, just buy bigger shoes already!
Having PCOS made me worry about every symptom, but my foot swelling started around the 7th month. Keep your sodium in check and discuss it with your gynac at your next routine checkup.
My ankles started swelling around the 24th week. My doctor allowed some gentle ankle rotations and prenatal yoga which helped keep blood circulation active, but check with your doctor first.
Mine started around week 28. The nurses at my hospital recommended using compression socks and tracking my daily water intake. Definitely clear it with your consultant during your next visit.
Mine began in the 6th month. Don't spend on expensive foot creams—just soak your feet in warm water with rock salt and keep them elevated. It's a lifesaver and costs nothing.
Usually, edema starts around the 5th or 6th month as blood volume increases. But if you notice sudden swelling in your face or hands along with headaches, please check with your gynac to rule out high BP.
Mine started in the late 6th month when I was busy craving and eating salted potato chips! High sodium can make it worse, but honestly, those cravings were too hard to ignore.
It usually kicks in around the third trimester because of water retention. Just don't stand for too long and get comfortable flats. It goes away post-delivery anyway.
I totally understand how uncomfortable those puffy feet can be, sweetie. For me, the swelling started around the late second trimester. Please be gentle on yourself.
It can start in the late second trimester, but please watch it. I had severe swelling which was actually preeclampsia. If it's sudden or very rapid, contact your doctor immediately.
It mostly begins around the third trimester as the body prepares for childbirth. Stay positive, drink lots of water to flush out toxins, and pray. Everything will pass beautifully.
