Should I go in?

Question

I am 34 weeks and 2 days and just noticed my legs and ankles and feet are HUMONGOUS! I'm starting to worry some, my baby still moves around. I have been tested for preeclampsia and passed the test so I'm not sure why my legs and ankles and feet a swelling up?! Should I go into the hospital?

Answer

Call L&D and see what they say. It could def be preeclampsia if the swelling is severe and sudden.

Answer

Have you been drinking water? Keep drinking plenty of fluids, elevate your feet higher than your heart. If swelling persists it wouldn't hurt to call your doctor!

Answer

I work in heath care, working 2-12 hour shifts a week on Saturday's and Sunday's. These saved me!! My legs wouldn't be swollen one bit, only hard part is getting them on when you are preggo! I have one pair and plan to buy another pair for the next pregnancy

Answer

I’d run to Walgreens and grab a wrist BP checker. They’re pretty cheap. That way you can keep an eye on it
