my feet are extremely swollen, i have little hot dog toes, is this normal?? my feet didnt even swell this much while i was pregnant, and i don't remember them swelling like this with my other c-sections.  Also i got staples this time around, i get them out next Friday, any one have these and have a good story about them being removed, all i have heard is horror stories.

If you had a lot of IV fluids, it's normal. You will eventually pee it all out but if you are u comfortable you should ask the doc, he could give you pointers to speed it up.

We found out that I was retaining a ton of fluid and I was on bed rest with my feet up

I only had my staples in for three days (got them Monday at the c-section and they were taken out thursday when i was discharged) but I also had 3 layers of stitches inside. I think each person is different but I didn't feel any but the first one, and it was just a small pinch (when it was taken out).

idk about the feet but i had staples and it kinda tickled when i got them removed, i barely felt anything i think maybe one was hard to get out and it just pinched but it wasnt bad at all.
