Swollen Feet!!

I'm in the final trimester and suffering from swollen feet, so much so I can't fit into anything except flip flops without being severely uncomfortable.

I've got a wedding coming up in two weeks' time and would love to be able to wear a pair of heels... Any remedies that are proven to work? I've been keeping them up and drinking lots of water but it hasn't made much difference at all. Please help!

The only thing that helped me for a day was a pregnancy foot massage. They went back to normal for a few hours but I was resting. Even if you had one and then went to the wedding I'm betting the standing around and walking would make you puffy again in no time.

The only thing I could do was buy some cheap sliders from primark in a size up and wear those.

I have bad swelling and made the mistake of squeezing into heels for a wedding and I paid for it Hmm my ankles and legs were huge I had to go and lie down and it always takes a couple of days for them to go down. I swapped to flats for the eve , its upto you but I’d recommend them instead x

Thank you!!

Sounds like maybe I should stick to the flats...!
