Guest guest Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 I would call my Doc just to be on the safe side. When I was pregnant with my post op baby, I swelled horribly in the feet and tummy. It was due to my low Albumin levels from not getting enough protein. Everything was okay, I was just swollen until about week 3 post-partum. Call your OB to be on the safe side.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 - , It's a good idea to contact your doctor. I have heard that putting lemon in your water is a natural diaretic, it wouldn't hurt to try it. Really push the water... Take Care.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 I think it depends which surgery you are having...I had SARPE 8 days ago and I am only a tiny bit swollen still, and still have the aftermaths of a big bruise on the left side of my jaw. My swelling has gone down a lot over the last 4 days.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 You will, in all likelihood have some swelling. But I didn't have the huge swelling that folks sometimes get. What are you considering having done? Pain? Most folks don't have much, amazingly enough. Numbness, maybe. But usually not more pain than the meds can keep controlled.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Hi Sharyn, Just a little swelling, I can tell b/c of my wedding rings. My feet feel bigger, kinda miss my pre-pg shoes, feeling somewhat frumpy lately. 15 lbs is great, I'm up 12, not bad since I stopped doing yoga & weight training. I'm also impatient to meet my little guy, we're starting on the nursery soon. WlsMomma 25 weeks, 2 days Hi Sharyn.
