Why do my feet swell during pregnancy?

During pregnancy, extra fluid is retained and can cause swelling of the tissues or "edema". Edema is usually most pronounced in the legs and feet as fluid tends to pools in these areas. Your growing baby and uterus put pressure on the vessels that drain blood and fluid from your legs, slowing circulation and leading to tissue edema in the legs and feet.

How safe during pregnancy are the essential oils in your Faithful Feet products?

You can rest assured that all of the essential oils used in our FaithfulFeet Massage Oil are completely safe to use during pregnancy and will have only positive effects on the expecting-mom and unborn baby.

What else can I do?

There are a number of other things that can be done to reduce pain and swelling of the feet during pregnancy. Here are some of the best, time-tested measures:

Sleep on your left side to prevent the uterus putting pressure on the heart and major blood vessels.

Keep your feet and legs raised as much as possible.

When seated, move your feet around by wiggling your toes, pointing and flexing the feet and rotating the ankles. This will keep the circulation moving.

Avoid salt, drink plenty of water and keep up with gentle exercise as recommended by your health practitioner.
