When I've been putting my boots on at the end of the day they are really, really tight when I zip them up. Last night I was trying to figure out how my legs have gotten that much bigger when I've only put on a few pounds.

This morning I put my boots and and it was smooth sailing, they were nice and loose and that is when it hit me. My legs are swelling a ton by the end of the day.

I'm worried with that much swelling already I'm going to have huge varicose vein issues, doesn't help that they run in my family.

Has anyone considered using compression stockings? I really dont' want to as I HATE wearing socks but I also don't want terrible viens...

Mine seem to be a bit swollen and heavy at the end of the day so I've been trying to lay with my legs up against the wall to let the blood drain from them! Imterrified of getting varicose veins, i've come to terms with the stretch marks which I will defo get but I don't want veins too!!!!
