Hi Everyone!
I've got a two week old dd now and wondering if anyone knows when I can expect my fingers (for my ring) and feet (for my shoes) to return back to normal size or can I expect for them to stay bigger forever? I'm breast feeding so not sure if that will affect it?

are they swollen or is it just extra weight?

I was told that the awful post natal sweating I had helped get rid of water retention and that went on for a good month or so, so presumably I had extra fluid kicking around for at least that long (assuming MW wasn't just trying to make me feel better about being a sweaty mess).
