Is it safe to get a foot rub?

I know, stupid question, but my feet are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO swollen today from being on them all day and I was wondering if it's ok for JT to rub them. I HATE feet, posting this freaks me out, but I really need SOMETHING to be done ebcause elevating them isn't working. But I thought I read that a foot rub is not ok?

I don't know but I would imagine its ok as long as you don't have vericose veins sticking out.
(NOt kidding here, I got them with this pregnancy and if someone touches it, it kills.)

There are some pressure points in your feet that are supposed to bring on labor. This is what I was told so when I got pedicures they didn't massage my feet.

Just have him be careful and hoepfully it helps. I know when my feet were bad I had to drink lots of water and keep them elevated.

A normal foot massage is fine, just let the therapist/nail tech know you are pregnant.
Make sure they don't work too deep around the ankles. Foot massages are a pregnant woman's best friend...Don't deny yourself- just go to a reputable place!
ENJOY!!!Chat Icon

I get them when I got my pedicures, which I do regularly. I also get them when I get massages. Why wouldn't they be fine?

If you do to a day spa, you can get reflexology done which is all about your hands and feet. It feels so good and you should definitely treat yourself.
