Well, I went to my Birth Centre appt yesterday and since my ankles are so swollen the midwife told me to try and put my feet up as much as I can. But then the baby is starting to turn posterior, so she said to make sure that if I'm lying down I lie on my right side and to lean forward if I'm sitting up, and to try and spend a bit of time on my hands and knees. So I'm thinking that the posterior part is more important than my feet and ankles going down, since nothing I do seems to help them and the "remedies" for these issues seem mutually exclusive.
Will the hands and knees thing really help? And please tell me that my feet will go down after the birth, I hate my fat ankles. Oh, plus I put on 3kg in the last 2 weeks, somehow, and I don't know why If this baby doesn't come soon I'll just be a big swollen blimp.
