Moms, or those who know moms

Did your feet grow during/after the baby? My mom says she went from a size 8 (I think) to 10 (or 11?) with my brothers. She's only 5'2, so that's huge. And she was just telling me Don should have gotten my flip flops in a bigger size since they'll grow (not just swelling).

Re: Moms, or those who know moms

  • Nope they didn't grow at all, I wore my regular shoes throughout my pregnancy.

  • Mine are about a size bigger. I've been getting away with wearing my flops, but none if my cute shoes fit. :( I've heard some say they go back, and some say they don't.

  • no, they were always the same size and still are.  the only time they got swollen was from all the fluids during labor/delivery and that went away after a few days.

  • I went up a size during my pregnancy but it was because of swelling.  They returned to normal about a week after C was born.

  • I did not go up a size but they did get huge from swelling. They were back to normal a few days after delivery.

  • Perhaps my mom's weird then. That's one thing I never read about in my lurking on boards- anyone's feet growing and not returning to normal. Because my mom's grew permanently. She still has size 10 or 11 feet. She's telling me mine will do the same. I hope not. I have too many cute boots! Haha
  • I went from a 7.5 to a 8-8.5. Though I was also 19 and still had a slight chance to actually grow. I seriously doubt it though since I stopped growing height-wise at 16. So maybe my feet gre into me during pregnancy then. Imagine a chick that is 5'10" with size 7 feet. I looked like I was going to fall over.
  • I have a few family members that said their feet grew and never went back. Not as drastic as your mom though. They all only went up a 1/2 or whole size.  It could be hereditary...hopefully not though...
