Has anyone else suffered severe swelling in their legs and feet after birth? Ever since I left the hospital my feet are so swollen! To the point were it's painful and difficult to walk on them. I have a very low sodium diet and drink a lot of water. Any thoughts or ideas that may help?

I had crazy swelling from my traumatic birth (I didn't have any IVs) and they told me to watch out for headaches and to call if I had one. But to otherwise drink lemon water and wait it out. It was like a week of hobbit feet for me! So strange since I had no swelling during pregnancy!

If you had an IV and or epidural they pumped you full of saline ( water) usually 3-5 days after birth your feet tend to be a bit puffy :)
