Interesting solution to swollen feet issue and a question

a woman in my childbirth class recommended I use mediped socks. They're for diabetics and sold in most drugstores for about $3.99. She said she wears them during the day and when she gets home her feet are notcibably smaller. I tried the socks and they do work. My feet were still swollen but not nearly as sore and the swelling had gone down tremendously. Feet almost looked like normal. I did not wear them today (I have to buy more) but my feet still fell better and when I got home from work my feet were not as swollen as they had been.

I have been experience tingling on my left foot. Is that normal? There was nothing in the pregnancy books about it.

I was gonna say, cut them off or put rubber bands around your wrist until the fingers get tingly....at least you'll be thinking about something other than your  feet  




sorry, I'm a lil feisty tonight  

good to know about those socks for future reference though

OMG...Bless you! My feet are out of control...I've been getting tingling and can't feel my toe on my left foot...my dr. says this is part of the sciatic nerve and the baby sitting on it...some women have it in their entire foot and some in their toes, etc. I'm gonna get me some of these sox today!
