I was always a 6-6.5 and very occasionally a 7. I still buy 6 and 6.5s but in certain shoes I'm always a 7 now (Nikes in particular). I don't think my feet grew much but the bunion on my right foot started with my first pregnancy and got much worse with my 2nd.

I had extremely swollen feet from my second trimester on, and even once the swelling went down I'm still a full size bigger than before pregnancy (a year later). Had to replace all of my shoes - my very lucky SIL had a shoe windfall.

I used to wear either an 8.5 or 9 depending on the brand and style. After 2 kids, I'm solidly a 9, with an occasional 9.5. So, about half a size growth here too, although some of my old shoes continued to fit.

The swelling went down after 4-5 months, though.

Always depends on the shoe

But yes, I’m a solid 7 now
From 6.5

No, but maybe my foot was already maximum size due to running a lot when I was in my 20s? My toes are already pretty spread out from that

It doesn’t for everyone. With my first I had zero swelling anywhere, no change at all to my feet (and baby was 6 days late). I’m also 35 weeks now with my second, zero swelling anywhere so far!

Nope. Went from a 10 to a 10.5. What a hassle!

I can still fit in some of my old shoes but they definitely don’t fit like they used to! Fortunately I’ve embraced motherhood and basically only wear slip on sneakers or Avarcas these days so I didn’t have to replenish my whole closet. I squeeze into the old ones when I actually need to look cute.


NP Sorry to jump in, but I like those Avarcas. They look so comfortable!
PP, Any other brands that you like for comfort?

Mine went back to an 8 (2 babies). Some styles I prefer an 8.5, but I think that was always the case. Still an 8 in most though.

my feet didn't change, nor did I experience swelling.

My feet (and ankles) were very swollen, but otherwise the size didn’t change. I was still able to wear my summer shoes during each pregnancy (both kids were summer babies). I guess it’s one of those things that doesn’t happen to *everyone*.

I gave up and gave away my shoes after they didn’t return to normal, and then of course a year or so later they did. Three kids, went up a full size total, returned to old size when youngest was about three. But if there really is vanity sizing in shoes, maybe they didn’t actually return to normal!

Mine are actually smallerunkess there is vanity sizing in shoes. Went from an 8 to a 7-7.5 after two kids.
