I have had swollen feet and ankles for weeks now and at times find them very painful. Some days worse than others.... Just sore..... I've tried hot baths, cold water, acupuncture, elevating them, plenty of rest, fluids etc but nothing really helps..... especially not this hot humid weather lately
Just a question for those who have had Odeoma (swelling) in pregnancy - when did your swelling go away after the birth? Immediately after? Few days after??
Just looking forward to this swelling going!! and meeting my bub!!!!!
TIA

I didn't have bad swelling but what I did have vanished within a couple of weeks after giving birth. My fingers swelled up in the last 2 or 3 weeks and I couldn't wear my rings until about 4 days after the birth. My ankels swelled from near the end of second trimester until a couple of weeks after DD's birth.
I had swollen hands and feet. My feet were so swollen that I had to buy a new pair of shoes to wear to work, and my fingers were so swollen I couldnt wear any of my rings from about 32 weeks on. The swelling started going down within a few days of Claires birth, and seemed to go back to normal by about 2 weeks after her birth.
