How long did it take after birth for your fingers to go back to normal and not swollen?

A week or two

Three months before I could get my rings back on. And even then, I had to force them!

I got very swollen hands and feet. I remember waking in a pool of sweat one night about a week or so in and it had all visibly reduced back to relative normality.

About 4 weeks for my hands to go back to normal and I could get my rings back on.
My feet also went down but I'm now a size bigger than I was pre pregnancy. Apparently it's quite common! 🤷‍♀️
