I had a baby 5 months ago, and towards the end of my pregnancy my hands and feet swelled a bit - presumably fluid retention... however, since then they haven't gone down and I'm beginning to wonder if my thyroid/vitamin levels are related at all...most of my shoes don't fit and my wedding ring is too tight to wear.
I have gained some weight, but I have been this weight before and not had problems with rings/shoes.
My folate is quite low and I think my iron could do with improving...my thyroid levels are good at the moment.
If anyone can advise it would be helpful... before I go and replace my whole shoe collection and get my ring made bigger!!
