Swollen hands & feet

[yessi808]

im 17 weeks & 4 days & my hands & feet get super swollen.. I work a full time job & drink lots of water.. What do you ladies think? Is it normal? I when to the ER & they said its because of the pregnancy? Any ideas on how to bring the swelling down?

For your hands dip them in cold water with a little ice this helps me alot. I haven't been able to wear my wedding rings in about a month especially with all this heat we've been experiencing

taking calcium magnesium will help plus drinking lots of water, elevating your legs andi ice sometimes.

I had that too. Drink more water and elevate your feet. Also, my midwife said to avoid crossing my legs and exercise more, something lite, such as walking.
