swollen ankles and blurry vision?

[pixal_ember]

I've spent maybe thirty minutes on my feet today and they are so swollen (more than usual) plus, for the last three hours my vision has been getting real blurry. I'll be 23 weeks in a hour or so, is this just normal pregnancy stuff? i don't wanna be to worried if i don't have to, but i don't wanna ignore it at the same time.

I will. My fiance made me prop my feet up, swelling went down. Still got blury vision though. Guess I'll just have to wait and see.

Ugh, well.  That doesn't sound right to me to be honest.   I certainly don't want to scare you but I had high blood pressure during my pregnancy and in the last trimester, I would swell a good bit.  Especially if it is hot and humid but you weren't on your feet THAT much.  Ugh.  And even more worrying to me is the blurry vision.  Are you seeing specks float around too?  Maybe tomorrow you can go to the grocery store or the drug store and get your blood pressure checked.  If it is high call your doctor.  Otherwise, wait until Monday and give them a call and see if they want to bring you in to check your urine and make sure everything is okay.  I mean, women have periods of swelling on and off but that vision problem makes me worry.   My blood pressure caused this but ^^  I did not have my baby early nor any complications.  They just watched it and I would take it easy from time to time.  So, try not to worry and just see how things go.  peace and let me know what happens, okay?
