Very Swollen tingly/numb feet?

[FreshLove]

So im 36 weeks pregnant and lately my feet have been swollen but it seems to be getting worse each day. Like today my feet are Extremely swollen and tingly...almost like a burning sensation too. At some points this evening they almost felt numb even. I knew it was common to swell up, but this tingly/numb feeling is new.

Is this normal? I'm going to mention it to my doc this Friday but I figured I'd ask around in the meantime. Thanks Ladies

Its normal you ARE almost at term.. if you were earlier in pregnancy experiancing these symptoms thats a bit scary but your so big now, and that pressing on your lower back while sitting will cause some funny numbness.

You and me both.  I'm so miserable...got a chest cold, can't sleep, throwing up.  I want this kid evicted but she's apparently not ready yet.

It just kind of freaked me out, lol. I iced them and it seems to have helped a little. But even my flip-flops are too tight now. I'm definitely ready for the baby to come!

I get the same feeling too.  Especially when I sit on the toilet.  Something about the hard seat...makes my legs and feet go tingly and numb.  It has to do with the pressure from the swelling and the uterus on the circulatory system in your lower extremities
