Swelling?

Has anyone else been swelling up anywhere yet? I have been swelling up in my feet and ankles like CRAZY-- especially my left side! I drink tons of water, have a sit down job, and I put my feet up at night! I am only 19w3days and this is already happening!  Does anyone have any suggestions and/or experience with this? Thanks.

Yeah my swelling has actually gotten worse since I originally made this post. Everyone has advised me to call my doctor. I don't have another appointment with her for 2 more weeks, but I think that I am going to make a call to her on Monday. I swell in my feet every single day and it's getting to be awful!  It's also a LOT worse in my left foot than my right foot.

@Weesara you need to inform your doctor about your swelling and pains. That does not sound good at all.
@cadosanjos try elevation. If that doesn't work I also recommend you talk to your doctor.
Swelling is normal, but sometimes it can lead to preeclampsia. I myself swell in my feet and ankles every time I go for a walk, so I know what y'all are going through
