Hi. Not particularly worried but getting frustrated. Two weeks after giving birth and I've STILL got swollen feet and fingers. Is it normal for the swelling to last this long? This is my second pregnancy but DS1 was 6 years ago so I can't remember what's normal. I just want to wear my wedding ring again 😫

I feel you. After my second baby in February I think it took about 3-4 weeks for the swelling to go and that was with compression stockings on too. Might be worth mentioning to midwife/HV though.
