Is it normal for my heels and feet to swell a lot?

Question

I’m 22.5 weeks with my first. And I’m having really bad heel pain the spikes through my foot along with swelling that makes it hard to walk on. Is this normal?

Answer

I was told if I start swelling a lot to check my blood pressure to make sure I don’t have preeclampsia

Answer

I had the same issue with my first pregnancy. I never developed preeclampsia and my blood pressure was always good. I tried putting my feet up as much as possible to help with the swelling and pain.

Answer

It’s been doing to for a couple days and I’m already on preeclampsia watch so I have a cuff and I keep checking and my blood pressure is down like it’s low 90’s over high 60’s

Answer

Yes. I agree with the other commenter. Please check BP! Could be early pre-e. I had it with my last pregnancy. Need to stay aware and cautious! Good luck!
