That's not a bad idea. I'm bummed I can't wear my poor Aggie ring for much longer... no getting a cheaper version of that haha! I think I'll look into getting a cheapy band for my ring finger </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-655069 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:31:46 +0000 Anagram 655069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookworm: I'm too afraid to wear mine on a necklace, because I've had nice necklaces come off my neck (when the clasp broke), and fall off and I never felt a thing! I'll probably just keep them in the jewelry box and maybe buy a cheapie ring to wear in the meantime.</p> <p>I asked DH if he would buy me another ring to wear while I'm a fat preggie, and you should have seen his face. So then I had to clarify that I mean a cheap, fake ring (not another entire diamond E ring and band). Men. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654907 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:56:25 +0000 sslm 654907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 37+1 right now and my feet and hands are so swollen, a lot of my shoes don't fit. I have one pair of flats and a couple of pairs of running shoes and winter boots that I am surviving with! I really hope they don't stay big. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654901 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:55:19 +0000 CottonCandy 654901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They were HUGE...and I mean HUGE. I literally couldn't even fit into flip flops, crocs, ANYTHING towards the end of my pregnancy. And I have to dress up for work!! Good news is that my feet went back to normal size though. It took a couple of weeks though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654890 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:52:12 +0000 autumnlove 654890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went up a half size and they returned to my regular size 2 months later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654871 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:46:59 +0000 Bookish 654871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: Yep, we are right around the same time! I'm 23w3days, soo basically the same :) Yeah, I'm getting pretty big indents in my fingers, and I just tried to take off my rings at work and *OUCH*. Siiighhh. What are you going to do with yours? I want to wear them on a necklace or something but I'm afraid I'd lose it... :/ </p> <p>I definitely plan on stocking up on cheap Target flip-flops in a month or two!! I splurged on some 18$ Havaianas for work :p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654865 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:45:18 +0000 matador84 654865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I couldn't fit into flip flops the last 3 months. I'm 7 months pp and my shoes barely fit still. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654864 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:44:56 +0000 Anagram 654864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookworm: I think we're pretty close in terms of EDD. I'm 23 weeks tomorrow, how far are you?</p> <p>I just started noticing a little swelling in my fingers this week. I have indentations on my finger when I take off my wedding/erings to shower, and I never had those before, but they aren't uncomfortable yet, and I can still get them off easily. My feet seem the same (for now), but I'm sure the swelling will get worse as time goes on.</p> <p>I'm happy that at least it will be summer when the swelling gets realllly serious, and if I have to pick up a couple pairs of cheap shoes at Target for the last trimester, oh well! I'm a little more sad about my rings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654855 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:41:44 +0000 Bookish 654855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: @highwire: Ack I hadn't even though of if my fingers would stop swelling!! It's getting close to the point where I have to REALLY try to get them off... :'( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654845 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:38:33 +0000 littlebittyhouse 654845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i had so much swelling that only 2 pairs of shoes fit at the end. Now 8mo pp I am back to my regular size. It took about 6 months though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654755 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:16:42 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 654755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't swell at all and my feet stayed the same size while pregnant.</p> <p>I am now at least half a size smaller than I was pre preg. For some reason, pregnancy made me ankles smaller and feet narrower. Same with my fingers....I had to get my rings sized smaller! I have no idea why....oh the weird things pregnancy does to you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654754 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:16:32 +0000 tysonja 654754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i had a winter pregnancy so there was no change in my feet during the whole pregnancy -- however they swelled like nuts post partum!! it did finally go down after 2 weeks though. no change in size, phew :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654747 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:15:05 +0000 loveisstrange 654747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Mine still don't fit at 12m pp!

Not even close. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654683 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:02:38 +0000 sarac 654683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only a little swelling before labor, and then they turned into massive hideous swollen things due to all the fluids I had. That went away as soon as I got home and could be active and put my feet up. They went back to their right size, but I have to wear more supportive shoes now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654087 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:41:01 +0000 NerdBee 654087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They went up maybe a half size near the last bit of pregnancy and totally blew up after my c-section. I think it was all the iv fluids. But they went back to regular size a few weeks pp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654067 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:35:11 +0000 loveisstrange 654067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Im really the only one who had to buy new shoes? Ugh. I hate all of you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654058 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:33:47 +0000 blackbird 654058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh i'm scared right now, lol. The swelling in my feet hit during my 9th month. They are flippin gigantic. I've been wearing tennis shoes and ONE pair of leather flats that will be stretched out. I take my shoes off at work under my desk so I don't continue to stretch them out! I also don't want to stretch out my other pairs of shoes. Even my flip flops are a bit tight. They have MAJOR pitting edema going on. My feet are like memory foam and I hope they go back to pre-preg size. They seem wider/taller most of all. I've had to loosen the laces on my trainers. I'm already a size 10, so....yeah. Already limited on size options! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654028 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:25:52 +0000 DillonLion 654028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hugely swollen feet and ankles. Absolutely none of my shoes fit by the end except for flip flops. Stayed swollen for a week or two after the birth. Now they are back to pre-pregnancy size ever since. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-654003 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:21:32 +0000 JerricaBenton 654003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine were so swollen I had to buy a few new pairs including heels to get me through the holidays. People delighted in telling me they weren't going to go back to normal (I have a prolific shoe collection!) But the size bigger flats I had on were falling off as I left the hospital and by a week after delivery I could wear all my old shoes and the ones I bought were giant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-653817 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 08:21:25 +0000 swurlygurl 653817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My feet were SO bad and swollen. They were right back to normal 1 week after birth. None of my shoes fit during my last 3 months... I was wearing flip flops in the snow because I refused to buy new shoes!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pregnant-feet#post-653812 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 08:17:56 +0000 Bookish 653812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm curious as to others' experiences on foot swelling/growth during and after pregnancy! Mine recently started swelling and between that and preggo growth (or it might just be the swelling!), I'm up almost a whole size. My poor beautiful shoes are almost all too small! </p> <p>If your feet grew during pregnancy, did they go back to their normal size? Stay the same? How long did it take? </p>
