Supermaiden - my feet are getting bigger by the day. A couple of weeks ago I noticed they were a bit puffy in the evening bit it's getting steadily worse now. Apparently it doesn't help that I sit down all day. I've given up with shoes and only wear flip flops or sandals now but even these leave indentations. The heat makes it worse. I've heard that drinking plenty helps and elevating them. In the evening I lie on the sofa with my feet up in one of the arms. Still getting worse though and before long I expect they'll look like inflated rubber gloves!

jcr glad scan went well!

Supermaiden my feet are swollen too and it seems to be permanent, so I try to wear no shoes or socks, and adjust the straps on my sandals when I wear those.

tw1light I hadn't thought I had any but recently whole tummy goes very hard for a bit and then slowly softens, sometimes I thought it might be indigestion but i do think now it's BH, and at 35 weeks not surprised really!

Well I have hoovered downnstairs, done a basic clean in bathroom, listed some stuff on Freecycle, done odd bits of tidying and watched some tv so feel quite relaxed.

Supermaiden- I think my feet swell a bit at times- doesn't seem permanant though, yet.

JCr- glad your scan went good!

Sorry ladies but queue jumper here!!

I wasn't due until 1st July but Daniel Alan was born by natural delivery at 00.01 on Sunday 26th June 2011 weighing 7lbs 2ozs.

We're all doing fine - had to stay in hospital for 2 nights as they were too busy to discharge us but back home now. Forgotten how painful boobs are after birth though - feel like rocks today as my milk starts to come in!! Ouch!!!

my feet are getting puffy also. i hate it. i can't rememeber when i last wore socks, but then i very rarely do in the spring and summer as i live in flip flops, sliders, sandles etc.i've drinking around 1 -2 litres a day and tbh i've not noticed it makes that much difference. but i must say after doing an hour of ironing last night my ankles and feet were huge, they felt so tight. and also my legs are a bit puffy.

gosh it makes me feel so unlady like, i feel like i walk really butch. i said to hubby last night i miss feeling girly . but bless him he said i am very much girly . i can't wait to get my legs back to normal size and tummy and walk without a waddle,lol.

Can I go on that list please? Thanks

Braxton Hicks - I'm coming up to 27 weeks and haven't had any yet - the only time my bump gets hard is when I've eaten (top of my bump :rotfl: )

Thanks for the advice PP - will look out for the waterproof mattresses!
