My legs me kuch blue green veins ubhar aaye hain in the third trimester and they look so prominent now. I never had these before, matlab why does pregnancy cause this? Thoda ajeeb lag raha hai dekhne me.
Carrying twins meant twice the pressure on my lower body, so my legs looked like a detailed road map of Delhi! Your body is producing extra blood to support the baby, and veins struggle to pump it back up. My tip: compression socks are your unglamorous best friends.
It's mainly because of hormone changes and the baby weight putting pressure on your legs! 🦵 Try not to cross your legs when sitting and do some foot rotations. Keep those legs elevated on a pillow while sleeping, it feels amazing! 😊
I've been reading up on this because we are planning a baby soon, and apparently it's because the growing uterus puts extra pressure on your pelvic veins! Plus, pregnancy hormones relax the vein walls too. Honestly, sounds so uncomfortable, does keeping feet elevated really help?
Haan yaar, ye veins blue ya purple ho kar पैरों pe dikhne lagti hain na, pregnancy me blood flow badhne ki wajah se hota hai. Mere feet me bhi bohot heavy feel hota tha. Aap thoda straight khade rehna avoid karo, thik hai?
Please be very gentle with yourself, your body is doing so much work. Varicose veins are very common due to increased blood volume, but if you feel severe pain, swelling in only one leg, or warmth, please tell your doctor immediately. Better to be safe.
Seeing those swollen veins can be so scary, I literally Googled for hours and cried thinking it was a clot. But it is actually very normal due to hormones and extra blood flow. Try to rest your feet on a high pillow, it really helps ease the panic.
