strange question

I'm just wondering when you all started to have problems with swelling. My last pregnancy i swelled pretty bad but not until the end. This time it seems pretty early. I'm only 18 weeks and my legs FEEL swollen from the knees down but don't really look swollen and my wrists and hands are swollen and puffy but not my fingers. My blood pressure was fine at my last ob appointment so I dont' thinks that's it. It's really just kind strange and I was just want to know if anybody else has this problem or if just a weirdo. lol


thanks

I'm at 32 weeks and have no swelling yet....though I probably just jinxed myself..

 

I never had this issue with either of my pgs... are you on your feet a lot? have you been eating a lot of salty foods lately? those are the only things I can think of that might impact that issue aside from normal pg swelling some women have...

 

With my single pg i was very swollen. With this one i dont feel swollen but the Dr said that my ankles look swollen and I had some problems putting on my shoes this morning....

 

No swelling here yet. My rings don't fit on my fingers anymore, but other than that, I haven't had any problems. It could mean that you're on your feet too much. I sit/lay down any opportunity I get and I always make sure to put my feet up at the office.

 

I had alot of swelling with my hands and feet during my single pregnancies, this time the only swelling I have is "down there" which started when I was about 30 weeks or so.

I started swelling pretty bad at about 34weeks.. now i looklike a balloon.. my feet and now vae cankles my hands r so swollen i cant wear my rings and my fingers hurt from all the pressure

 

It's very common! With my singleton pregnancy, I didn't swell until near the end, maybe from 36 weeks on....and, it was just my ankles, which were really scary looking.

This time, I've had some swelling in my hands, fingers and wrists....and my ankles have been starting to swell just in the past week or two, although not TOO badly yet. I have a feeling it will get much worse! I've gained a ridiculous amount of weight, so I am just looking huge all over, swelling or no....

 

Never had any swelling. But I think that may be because I was always very pg in Winter in VT?

Good luck! B)
