First time C Sect

Hihi! It's normal and should go away within 2-3 weeks postpartum, otherwise do check back with your doctor! I couldn't fit into any of my slippers and shoes for about a week 😹💀 What helped me was elevating my legs when I sleep, wearing compression stockings almost all day, and drinking lots of water and tea 👌 you can also rotate your ankles when elevated or gently massage them if there's no pain - these help with circulation.
