    A woman's body undergoes many complications during pregnancy and one of them is swelling of feet.

    Why do feet swell?

    When a woman is pregnant, the weight of the uterus and the baby puts pressure on the nerves of her legs, causing less blood circulation at the feet resulting in swelling.

    Secondly, hormonal changes also cause swelling of feet as more fluid and water from mother’s body is used for the baby's nourishment.

    Signs not to be ignored

    If you have swollen feet throughout the day along with blurred vision, dizziness, shortness of breath or swelling in just one foot, consult a doctor at once.

    Also watch: Dimming lights before bedtime leads to safer pregnancy as per study
