I can't properly remember but I think it was almost back to normal after about a week. Was a gradual thing and I remember thinking it was taking forever and not being able to fit into any of my shoes!

Just over a week for me, I was so excited I had ankles again!

First baby, less than a week.

Second baby, a good 6 weeks for the majority, but 12 weeks in I still can’t get wedding ring on the correct finger, and some tight boots still won’t go on without the thinnest of socks are too tight still really...
