How to Keep Ankles from Swelling...


Because I have had the typical "Cankles" that preggies get, I have descovered that wearing socks can keep ankles trim and lean. However, the socks can cause strange deformities to the lower leg area (see photo). On the bright side, if we preggos must settle for a humpty dumpty figure instead of the illusive hour-glass shape, then perhaps we can have hour-glass ankles.

For more fun with your marshmallow feet, simply wrap your lower legs in strips of fabric leaving gaps as you wind from big toe to knee. Then, take a few laps around the living room and BINGO!--you've got candy cane feet!

Or, for a more daring look, criss cross your feet with rick-rack or twine for a sunburst or snow flake pattern.

Don't cry about it, have fun with it. And then, send me pictures!
