Swelling?

Question

Who is all swelling? Where at? How long? I just now started feeling swelling in my feet the last 2 days. And maybe a little in my hands. With my last pregnancy i was SUPER swollen on my ankles and feet at the end. Then i found out i had preeclampsia. I don't remember what week it started though. Is 35 weeks a pretty normal time to start swelling up? I feel like a lot of you have been swollen for a while. So maybe if it's only just now starting for me then maybe that's a good sign I wont be getting preeclampsia again. I dont even see the swelling in my feet, I just feel the tightness in them as I walk if that makes sense.

Answer

My feet and ankles are horribly swollen, it started for me this week, 35 weeks. My blood pressure has been running high so I’m on the lookout for preeclampsia, I’ve been taking my blood pressure daily and it’s been normal so I don’t know what’s going on. I have an appointment on Saturday and I’ll mention it to my doctor.

Answer

This is my first so everything is new to me. I started swelling for the first time last week (33 weeks) really bad on my legs, ankles and feet, like woke up and they were awful and hurt so bad to walk on. I called OB and they done the 24 hour urine test and blood test because they found traces of protein in my urine sample at the office. I’m waiting for them to call with the results. I’ll be 35 weeks Saturday. I know ppl say swelling is normal but it’s hard to know what’s normal when u are experiencing it for the first time. Here’s what my swelling looked like, my legs were slightly discolored too. (Over look my toe nails!)

Answer

My hands/fingers are all that I’ve noticed. Maybe feet just a little

Answer

Same here. I’ll be 34 weeks tomorrow and have noticed I’m starting to swell slightly. I was badly swollen with my first pregnancy. I think a lot of it has to do with my diet though! Reducing and watching the amount of salt I consume has personally helped me greatly.
