Swollen shins and ankles

Christine • First baby on the way! Happily married, step mom and love my god!
I'm only 16 weeks and wow my ankles are swollen and my shins hurt 😞 I've gained 12lbs so far I weighed 125 before I'm 5'1 so am I gaining weight to fast or does anyone know why I'm already swelling? I'm worried this is my first pregnancy. Any tips how to help the swelling
