should I be worried, swelling**
35w3d
I've been checking my blood pressure at the pharmacy counter with the self service machine. I haven't checked it in probably 5 days though.
I worked an 8 hour shift, on my feet walking around. I came home and immediately started making dinner.
when I took my shoes off, I noticed my ankles were swollen and that they're kind of numb. (Probably from the socks and shoes.)
I've never had any swelling at all before now.
but I did have preeclampsia with my last pregnancy. ***no prior swelling until I was already well into labor at the hospital.***
how worried should I be? should I take off work tomorrow and rest? or should I go to work, check my blood pressure at the pharmacy, and see how the day goes?
any hours at work would be better than none.
