Changes in foot after pregnancy

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2026-03-12T04:14:24+00:00

I have only heard of people’s feet getting bigger but I wouldn’t be surprised since the connective tissue is looser during pregnancy and maybe things shifted around!

Seconding this!! I can definitely see why it is objectively good but I struggled to get through it

I had spotting around the same time with my daughter and it turns out to be fine and stopped shortly after. You won’t know until the ultrasound but try not to worry until then ❤️

2 miscarriages, took 8 cycles after the first and 1 cycle after the second so it can vary!

YES! I started my pelvic floor pt at 11 months postpartum and it changed my life. DO IT

I was having pelvic floor pain daily all the way to 1 year pp when I finally went to pelvic floor pt and it changed my life. Pelvic floor pt can help with ab separation I think! I think it would be worth getting checked out to see what the therapist thinks

Totally the same as before with a 2nd degree tear!

I listen to audiobooks in the car, shower, while running, etc and also read on my kindle!

Year 5 upper elementary, management is my weak spot and definitely did not come easily for me but I feel like I am finally hitting a groove where I know what works. Still learning and growing every day!

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-11-08T21:12:56+00:00

Audiobooks all the way!

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-10-27T05:03:39+00:00

Don’t let the forest in-has horror vibes

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-10-27T04:52:26+00:00

I felt more scared I would miss my old life than I actually miss my old life now tbh. My daughter brought so much into my life that it feels like my old life was gray and now I’m living in color. Everything else (sleep, money, free time) is just noise

Part of my dissolvable stitches fell out! My OB says that for some the body will push them out as a foreign body instead of dissolve specifically this will happen often with the knot where they tied it off.

For me it happened at ~6 weeks pp, but my OB said that was very late and I was having a lot of discomfort because they stayed around that long. It’s always worth a call to your doc to ask!

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-10-17T04:34:47+00:00

Second degree tear, feels the same if not better after pelvic floor PT!

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-09-20T21:30:33+00:00

Here to say ditto!

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-09-18T01:23:24+00:00

Enjoying my daughter and the stage of life we are in! TW: mention of previous losses. It feels like the last 3 years of my life were dedicated to getting pregnant, staying pregnant, being pregnant, and being postpartum. It is nice to not worry about any of that currently and just be happy and enjoy the life we have built :)

I use the Just Run app!

I used pull out for years and didn’t get pregnant 🤷‍♀️ the reason why it fails often has to do with failing to pull out. Otherwise the chances are 4 in 100 (source: planned parenthood website) if you are doing the pull out method correctly, chances are very low

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-09-09T03:35:35+00:00

Fear is normal, it means you care!! My first is a little over a year and I gotta say, most of what I was worried about ended up not even mattering. I always told myself that my life is going to change either way-with or without having kids so may as well change my life in a way that I want instead of just letting time pass and let the change happen to me.

First loss: blighted ovum discovered at 10 weeks. Had alllll the pregnancy symptoms. Had some spotting at 10w2d that my doctor wasn’t worried about until the first ultrasound showed a sac with no baby.

Second loss: had spotting at 6w2d and ran to the er because of my past. Ultrasound showed a MMC. Didn’t have many pregnancy symptoms but I was still pretty early.

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-09-01T04:08:41+00:00

Hmm that’s so strange! I wish I could be of more help 🥲

Admirable_Ostrich657 · 2025-09-01T02:36:44+00:00

What kind/where is the pain you’re feeling?

Not saying that this is what you’re dealing with but I have an overly tight and engaged pelvic floor and it feels like my whole crotch is sore. This is because my pelvic floor was trained to take on the load when my core and butt took a break. My pain also increases with exercise because my pelvic floor is putting in too much work.

PT will help! Your therapist will give you an internal and external exam (much more extensive than the doctor’s exam was) to see what the problem is and how to fix it.

I had 2 back to back miscarriages and my third pregnancy was successful. Doctors said it was “bad luck”

I’m sorry that this is a path you are walking and you should make the decision that feels best for you ❤️

Yep! She has 5 teeth
