Fat Feet!


One of the many blessings of pre-eclampsia is excessive water retention. Hmmm do you think I have that symptom yet? These pictures really don't even do justice. I call them my "Fred Flinstone Feet". One good thing about this is that weight loss is almost immediate after delivery! It's just a little uncomfortable to walk around on puffed up water balloons all day!

That is crazy! At least it is summer and you don't have to try to squeeze them into shoes! I had feet like that with Taylor but it was January. I had to go around in slippers because my feet wouldn't fit in shoes, a little embarassing!

I am so sorry about your feet, but at least your toes look cute! I remember one day when you came into work late, because you had to go buy new shoes cuz none of your shoes fit you!

You poor thing... I can not believe those are your feet. Hang in there:) I can't believe it has already been 4 years since we were both pregnant up at girls camp.

At least you have a very cute pedicure! I am sorry that you are so miserable. I can't sympathize at all, but seeing your feet makes me not so sad that I had to miss all that.

Yikes! I totally can relate, my feet were the same way with Jack! Stacey's comment made me laugh cause I remember that too!!! And was going to say the same thing.

With Kennedy I had to go on a medication that gave me water retention so I feel for you. It also made Kennedy gain water weight. You could barely see her eyes within two weeks she looked like a completely different baby. Hang in there.

Oh that is sad. I bet you are ready to be done. Being pregnant during the summer is the worst.
