swollen palms

[evthing4reason]

The palms of my hands are pretty puffy, it hurts to open bottles or grip anything. Anybody else experiencing this? I have a biophysial this afternoon i will be asking about it

Well, that's good that it isn't anything other than your body just retaining water.  Oooo... that would be nice if they induced you next week!  Something to look forward to :)  You will have to keep us posted on what your doctors are planning for you!

just that i was retaining fluid. once i saw another lady there who was put on bedrest for swelling/high bp i decieded mine wasn't that bad.
Now we just need to get my blood sugars back under control....they're going to low, i have to have a biophsical twice a week now. i suspect they will induce me nexy week

Hey there... I have this too, but I think mine is part of my swelling issue.  What did you doctor say yesterday?

I agree with Amy - all I have read about swollen hands is as a possible connection to pre-eclampsia  but def. worth checking out.

No...hopefully it is just a freak allergic reaction to something and not pre-eclampsia! I am glad you have an appointment later...I would call though and make sure you shouldn't come in earlier just in case...
