When to be concerned about swelling?

Question

31 weeks and my feet and ankles are very very swollen, even first thing in the morning. I do have some leg cramping and restless legs when relaxing or trying to sleep but no pain.

Answer

I'd call your doctor and see if they want to check up on it. I don't think you should be concerned unless your doctors are, but it's always good to keep an eye on it. Preeclampsia can come so fast and isn't always noticeable.

Answer

Call your doc

Answer

I had preeclampsia with my first.  My feet and legs were always extremely swollen and nothing helped with the swelling.  I’m at risk for it with this pregnancy as well and was told swelling that doesn’t get better with rest(while keeping your feet elevated) needed to be looked at.
