My feet at 8:30 am before even
stepping out of bed. I'll take another picture tonight to compare.

Catherine Granger Davis: Put your
feet above your heart in bed at night.
Kaolee Hoyle: Whoa! Does it hurt?
Emily Beth Rusch: It doesn't really
hurt. When its bad at night my feet feel kinda numb. My first few steps in the
morning are kinda painful too but I'm not sure if that is from the swelling or
walking on hardwoods or both.
Victoria Vaught: Ask your doctor
about a safe diuretic to help with the swelling and avoid salty foods which
will make it worse.
Krista Mullins: Yeah I can empathize
with you on this one! Sorry friend!
Kristi Yancey: I had that happen. It
was pretty miserable. Try cutting down on salt and increase your water intake.
Strangely, watermelon helps a lot, but that might be kind of hard to find this
time of year. Hang in there! You're in the home stretch.
Krista Mullins: I love putting a
cold, wet wash cloth on my swollen feet and yeah drinking tons of water is
supposed to help too.
Amy Dupras Granger: Sweetie, your
feet are trying to tell you something. A few celery sticks or an orange might
help, along with putting your feet up
Shauna Mosher: I've been combating
swelling the last few weeks too. The things that have helped the most for me
have been to fill the bath with cold water then just stick my feet in for a few
minutes. I leave the water in there so in an hour or so I can do it again.
Bejean has been really awesome with foot massages too. He squeezes from my toes
to my calves and manually pushes the extra fluid up to get it recirculating.
This has been the most effective. Good luck Emily! We are on the home stretch!
Emily Rusch: Oh darling. I'm so
sorry.
Nyla Love: They look like they hurt!
Sooo sorry...12 oz. of lemon water first thing when you get up in the morning
helped me.
