How many of u wore/wear high heels during pregnancy?

I'm 24 weeks, 6 days %26amp; still wear high heel shoes 2-1/2-3 inches. My mom %26amp; everyone in my family tells me that's it's not good for me to do this, but my dr doesn't seem to have a problem with it. He doesn't say anything about it. Have anyone ever had any problems with wearing heels during pregnancy?

How many of u wore/wear high heels during pregnancy?
I wore high heels all the time before being preg. Now that I am, just as far as you too, flat shoes make my back hurt terribly. My midwife never said anything about the heels either, she actually wanted to know where I got them. But I'm tired of everyone else yelling at me for it. But if it starts to bug me, then I'll switch to the more so annoying flat shoes that seem to kill my back ^.^
Reply:generally when it comes to your physical ability while pregnant... if you were used to it before it's probably okay to do it during. for example: if you were an avid runner/swimmer/cyclist, it's okay while pregnant as long as you can handle it. and as long as you don't have any complications. also use your common sense, if you went bunji jumping all the time or if your wearing 4 inch heels while there is ice everywhere... it's probably time to stop for a while! i can't imagine high heels would pose a huge threat if your very used to them... maybe as your pregnancy goes on and you can see your feet, maybe switch to some kitten heels or shorter wedges.
Reply:I wear them all the time my family and boyfriend also keep telling me that i should not be wearing them but my Dr. thinks it's ok. and plus i don;t really see a problem. I wear them to work everyday 31 Weeks with a Boy
Reply:I didn't wear them during pregnancy. Thing is, your back is going to start hurting at some point somewhat -- wearing heels is not good for your back whether you are pregnant or not. I go for comfort now before I go for the sexy look -- it's not worth it. Another issues could be slipping off the heel and falling -- that's not too safe. OBGYN doctors are not back doctors. They probably don't realize how bad hgh heels are for women.
Reply:If you can do it , then there should not be a problem. I was never comfortable in heels and wear then only when necessary . As long as you are still farly well balanced, keep wearing them.
Reply:no..no..no.... that is not a risk Id be willing to take!.....I would be afraid of falling, and you if you fell and fell on your stomach you would seriously hurt the baby..maybe even kill it.





For the safety of my child I could go 9 months without wearing heels.
Reply:I don't think that it is dangerous for the baby or anything. There are some reasons why you may want to reconsider it at some point. First of all, heels aren't really so healthy for your body anyway and the added weight from being pregnant will stress your joints and lower back more.


Also I think when you are later in pregnancy you get an added dose of hormone that makes your joints/muscles looser to help in delivery. That will make it much easier to strain your back or sprain your ankle or something if you are wearing heels. You don't want to be in labor or even just like eight months pregnant trying to get around with a bad back strain or something.
Reply:me!!
Reply:I'm a guy, so well, obviously I can't answer the direct question, but a little common sense never hurt.





Now, of course, I see no way that wearing high heels could directly affect your baby, but a couple of things comes to mind. One, it's probably really bad for your feet. High heels have always struck me as something that might do damage to your feet, not to mention with the extra weight.





Honestly, you're not gonna be "fashionable" when your pregnant. The "extra 20 pounds" look probably won't be coming in style any time soon. But, I don't think there's much reason to care anyways. It's not fair for people to give you grief for it when you're pregnant.
Reply:The biggest problem is that as you get bigger you get unbalanced and it could increase your chances of falling. If you are comfortable in heels then you are fine, just be careful.
Reply:its not bad but then again its not a good idea because u might fall and something bad might happen to u and the baby and nobody want that to happen
Reply:i just had my baby, wearing high heels shoes doesn't affect the baby, the only harm is if its too much on the mom, if you accidently trip its harder to regain balance, wearing high heels during pregnancy is fine, i did, i stopped about 8 mnths because my feet started to swell and i felt heavier and in the later months you may start to feel unbalanced, it just became easier and safer to wear flats, just be careful in your heels you would not want to trip and try to regain balance on a heel....
Reply:It's fine unless you fall


what else did you expect?
Reply:My doctor said as long as my feet can stand it, and I didn't fall the shoes I wear do not have any effect on my body.. I say rock on... I love my shoes. I am a shoe fanatic so the fact that I could wear them all was great.
Reply:Well, I was told by a doctor that if you are used to wearing heels then it's completely fine! I wore my stillettos all the way through. I was pregnant, not dead to the fashion world!
