is pitting edema something to be concerned about??

My ankles and feet are swollen, but my right ones are twice as swollen as my left and I can leave a huge indentation that lasts a couple of minutes. I read online that this could mean pre-e? I'm 38 weeks and seriously wondering if I would call my doc??? Please help!!

I would just call. At least to ease your mind. Good luck and keep us updated.

Do you have other symptoms? Like face swelling, blurry vision, seeing spots in your vision? Calling your doc is always a good thing if you are concerned, especially with pre-e.
