If you had an IV during labor it's probably the fluid from that. Drink lots of water and keep your feet up, it should go down in a few days.

The same thing happened to me about 3 days after I got home. I was so freaked out because I didn't have any swelling while I was pregnant. It took a couple of days to go away. Just keep your feet elevated.

A couple of days after my c/s my Dr came in and said, the swelling will get worse before it gets better. It's your body's way of flushing out all the extra fluid from the pg. You have to drink plenty of water and pee alot for it to go away.
