Swollen Ankles In Pregnancy

Are your ankles suddenly looking like, ughhh, cankles? A little bit of swelling is normal during the second half of pregnancy. This condition, aka edema, is due to your body retaining excess amounts of water. How does this happen? Your growing uterus is putting pressure on your veins, which slows circulation and causes blood to pool in your legs. This pressure also forces fluid from your veins into the body’s tissues. If you feel the swelling seems more significant, contact your caregiver. But in most cases, you can find relief simply by staying hydrated and eating a healthy diet.

Our feet aren’t immune to dry skin. In fact, this skin is more likely to get dehydrated than any other part of our body thanks to the abuse our feet take on a daily basis. Maintaining soft soles requires a two-pronged approach that includes exfoliating dry skin with a scrub or tool and hydrating dry feet with rich creams and lotions.
