By evening mere ankles become so puffy that my chappals feel tight. Im in 7th month now. Is this just normal pregnancy thing or something to worry about?
Looking back at my pregnancy photos, my swollen ankles always make me laugh now. Don't worry, it goes away almost immediately after delivery. Just rest as much as you can right now.
My ankles looked like literally elephant feet in my last month! What worked wonders for me was keeping my legs elevated on two pillows while sleeping. Also, try not to sit with your legs hanging down from the sofa for too long.
Welcome to the Shrek feet club, sister! My husband had to buy me slippers two sizes larger because my ankles bloated up so much. Keep drinking water and enjoy putting your feet up while others pamper u!
Swelling toh normal hai na pregnancy me, humari body me extra blood jo banta hai. But haan, ek baar doctor se apna BP check karva lena to be safe, high BP se bhi swelling hoti hai kabhi. Take rest!
No need to panic, it's just pressure from the baby's weight and water retention. Soak your feet in lukewarm water with a little rock salt every evening. It is a very cheap, easy, and effective way to get relief at home.
I have heard from my elder sisters that ankle swelling is quite common during the later months. They always suggest wearing very comfortable, flat footwear and keeping your feet up whenever you sit down.
