mamabear7406`s poll Show results | Hide results


Baby-poll poll I haven`t done much today. Spent the day at home being lazy, then tonight I went to the movies with some girlfriends, then came straight home. My feet are very sore, very red, very swollen. I found this strangr as I haven`t been on my feet a whole lot today. Is it something I should be worried about? What should I do? I`m almost 36 weeks.

it means you need to put your feet UP! Lie down on the sofa and elevate your feet. Towards the end of pregnancy you need to do this often.

at the end of my pregnancy i could barely stand let alone walk with the huge cankles i had! i worked retail up until my due date and let me tell you i was so swollen! (i was due july 4 2002) between the humidity of the summer, the standing on my feet all day, i was ready to go a sit on the couch in my ac home all day long LOL! i swelled up my legs, my hands swelled so bad i couldnt wear any rings. my wedding band barely fit on my pinky finger! i had alot of water issues. i found if i soaked my feet in cold water i felt alot better. =)

ugh my feet are the worst too LOL doesn`t take much for them to swell.... all I can say is try to keep your feet up as much as you can and try cut back on salt and drink lots of water :) good luck

It doesn`t take much when you are that far along. At the end of my pregnancy just wearing socks made my feet swell.

If its just your feet then just the wondeful `joys` of being pregnant! Just relax and elevate them to help the swelling

every time I go to the dr. they tell me that as long as it is just my feet that is normal, and the part of the joy of being pregnant in the summer. They also said that if my hands and face start swelling, then I need to worry.

  3. I need some help. I know I`m not pregnant(no BD in 3 months) but my lower stomach has been having that pulling streching feeling like when I was pregnant the last few days. Especially when I am moving around and walking. I swear it feels just like it did when I was very pregnant. Any idea what else could be causeing this? Should I make a dr appointment?
  4. Hunter is 5, in Kindergarten and has Asperger Syndrome and Social/Emotional disorder due to this he also has a full-day aide with him. Thursday when I went to pick him up from school I was handed a letter stating that was being suspended for one day for pushing his aide because `she was too close to him in line` Apparently she didn`t fall but `almost` fell. We have a meeting set up on the 12th to talk this issue over, but I don`t think suspending was a grand idea. I mean he`s 5 and autistic! What do you think?
  5. My 16 month old is 21 pounds. Is this terribly small? He is a great eater, sleeper and is very happy, it just seems he is a bit smaller than other children his age.
  6. Need game ideas for a baseball theme (indoor) birthday party - So far I have Musical Bases (played like musical chairs), a Baseball Pinata, Hot Baseball (played like hot potato) & either catch the peanuts in a ball cap or toss the peanuts in a tin can.

  8. My baby is a thumbsucker, usually only sucks her thumb when going to sleep. Her bottom teeth are coming in and its making thumb red. Has anyones had it actually break their child`s skin and make it raw? Not sure what I should do about it if it gets worse.
  9. *Question not a poll* What did you do for your LO`s 1st birthday party? We live about an hour & half from our friends & most of our family. We are looking to rent somewhere closer to everyone else for our dd`s 1st birthday but could really use some ideas :)
