My legs are swollen and I'm only 5 weeks and 4 days pregnant

As most of you know I'm 5 weeks and 4 days pregnant with my 2nd baby.  I had swelling with my son that started at 7 weeks.  But it was never this bad.  My left leg is almost twice the size as my right leg.  My legs are achy too.  They never bothered me with my son.  Should I be concerned?

I agree with nickie - call your doctor and let them know.  A leg that is double the size of the other warrants some medical advice.

I would definitely call your doctor and see what they say. I had bad swelling with my first son and they just told me to stay off my feet and elevate them as much as possible!
