Last time I swelled horribly from 33 weeks on. Thy checked for pre eclampsia like 5 times when I went to the hospital but it ended up being I had a lot of fluid. When your feet go back down you will feel like its skin and bones lol.
my worst thing so far this pregnancy is pelvic pain (spd) it makes it that I can barely walk now or put on pants. It started at 17 weeks and I am now only 28.
My blood pressure has been fine at every appointment, but I've definitely got the swelling going on...especially if I dont get my feet up during the day! I wear slippers everywhere I go...my poor husband probably feels like he's married a slob who's going to wear slippers and sweat pants the rest of her life;) I can't even wear my wedding ring right now...:(
Just to be on the safe side do enquire about it with your midwife/doctor and make sure you are okay.
Your face will swell with preeclampsia... they don't count get swelling as a sign/symptom because swelling of the feet already naturally occurs in pregnancy... don't put more stress of paranoia then need be...
Soak your feet in Epsom salt. Incline your feet above your hips any time you get down time to relax. My first pregnancy, my feet swelled like crazy.. I had to change my diet and drink more water. But the Epsom salt baths are my favorite.
Thank you very much that is one of my greatest fears I assumed my face swelling was due to the way I sleep
Do u have swelling anywhere else? And you neeed to have your blood pressure checked asap, could be pre-eclampsia, i suffered sevre eclampsia and my feet didnt it into my shoes which where a size bigger then i originally am! Ask someone if maybe ur hands or maybe parts of ur face look a little big as if u where fatter then normal, as i looked like i was FAT but turned out i was swallen like no other! It could be odema aswell, but do get it checked, if u got pain in ur upper belly or migraines then its all a sign. Dont leave it just incase. Good luck.
I got 5 weeks in a half weeks left and my feet just started swelling but I've been getting migraines just about everyday for the past week. Doct said it was bc i don't rest and probably fatigued
3 weeks to go and I have morning sickness still :( can't go anywhere after 3pm otherwise ill be spewing! It ***** :(
