Have you put on weight? even a little bit could make your feet more 'plump'.

Hi Julie, it sounds more like your feet are swollen than growing bigger, if this is the case, and new to you, I would see your GP.

Swollen feet could be a symptom of other not so obvious ailments.

Your medication could be making your feet swell, my BP medication does.

I generally take a 4, but if the shoes are wide fitting I wear a 3.1/2.
When I broke my arm in 2007, I swelled up so much all over, I had to buy a 6 slipper.
Try getting a wider fitting shoe, and if you do have swollen feet, when they go down you can always put a sock inside the shoe.

Like evrerything else these days, the sizes dont seem to be right. I went out the other day, and laughed as I had on- size 16 trousers, 14 top, bra 36G and panties 18.
