Very swollen fingers PP-Anyone have this?
I am 6 1/2 weeks PP and my fingers below the knuckle are still extremely swollen. It looks like a lump on top of each finger.
I have been drinking tons of water and it is not helping. I EBF too, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Anyone else have this and is there anything else I can do?

I swelled up a lot after giving birth. My legs, fingers, arms all become HUGE! All of that went down around 4 wks PP. It was so annoying but it does go away.

Same here! Did the OB say what it was?
Mine said if it doesn't go down by next week, I have to call my regular doctor.

Re: Very swollen fingers PP-Anyone have this?
I was swollen but only a week after delivering. I was never swollen during pregnancy, but 2 days after delivery swollen feet like I've never seen before. Mine was due to IV fluid.
6.5 weeks seems like a long time for body to adjust post delivery, but I honestly don't know.

I'm glad I'm not the only one! I can get them below my knuckle but, they get stuck before they get down to the bottom of my finger.
