Swelling

I am about 5 weeks along and having trouble with severe swelling in my ankles and feet. I think my legs may be swollen too. They feel so heavy I'm having trouble walking. My first thought is that its way too soon. Anyone else having these issues? My first OB appointment isn't until Monday..so I'm a little concerned.

It does seem early, but I have never had that happen to me before.  Call your doctor.

It happens to me it feels like my shoes shrunk 5sizes :( my shoes even hurt when i'm just wearing the small ankle socks :/. I have to constantly massage my feet and ankles. Even when i get up and stretch in the morning my back super stiff and then i feel little flutters(: and i smile.

Really?! Does it last the entire pregnancy for you? I'm already wearing slippers to work because by midday my shoes are squeezing my feet. I feel like I can't do anything. If this keeps up its gonna be a long pregnancy!
