Swollen Ankles

Tiffany

Going on 30 weeks on Monday... and if i sit for more than 20 minutes my ankles swell up!!! I do foot exercises (foot rolls, calf raises, etc)... I drink a lot of water everyday... when I'm sitting, I'm in class... so now I started sitting in the very back so i can get up every now and then. The professor let's us take a break every hour for 10 minutes and i use those 10 minutes to use the restroom and do some more exercises.

If I'm home, it's a different story... I elevate my feet and they don't get AS bad.

I've gained 16lbs total so far... I don't know, I guess I was expecting this to start happening maybe 4 weeks before she arrives.

Anyone else experiencing swelling? Any tips on what can help it go down?
