swollen

I noticed my fingers get very swollen at night when I'm sleeping and my feet I think are starting to as well. I'm 34 weeks is anyone else getting swollen at night and why?

My Midwife said to call them if you're feet/hands are swollen in the morning, the swelling should have gone down overnight

My ankles, feet & hands both swell now that I am 35w+6.
My hands swell more at night when Im sleeping too. I dunno why since the swelling should supposedly go down with rest. I notice that if I wake up with my hand under the pillow or stretched out, it's even more swollen so I know it might have to do with the blood circulation.
I'm gonna talk to my doctor about it at my appointment on Monday cuz it's a pain in the a**.

Same here. I'm retaining a lot more water now. But for the past week I've been sooooo thirsty were I'm drinking so much. (I'm drinking way over the amount you are suppose to drink a day) My mom told me I need to slow down on drinking water. She wants me ask the doctor to check my kidneys and liver. But I don't know why...I do know more swollening at the very end is normal.
