I was so swollen too. I couldn’t even wear shoes for a week after I had my son. I went to Walmart and bought a pair of slippers that were 3 sizes up from what I normally wear.
Walking is the best way to relieve the swelling. I had c-sections with both and was swollen for over a week from all the fluids. Don’t sit too long, try to get around as much as possible.
Weirdly enough, it's kinda common to swell up after giving birth. I was already swollen after giving birth to my kids. Then one day, a week or so later, I woke up and realized I could see my pretty ankles again! Lol I went out and got a pedicure and was super happy. Lmao
3 days after I had my oldest I swelled up like a balloon. It was from all the fluid they pumped into me during labor. But it wouldn’t hurt to call your ob and mention it to them. Hope you feel better.
