@peaceofheaven121, Called today, Dr said elevate and watch through the weekend if worse call the after hours number. Said she thinks it's too early for pre-eclampsia but have an appointment on Monday anyways.

@peaceofheaven121, I think I'm going to call in the am because my next appointment isn't for nearly 3 weeks still. The swelling just started tonight so it kinda freaked me out. I had a pretty deep pit in my shin area scared me a little. I will definitely let you know what I find out tho and maybe it will help you too....😄

Oh. Mention it at your next appointment just to make sure there isn't any issues, but I've heard it's quite common! My feet are starting to tingle and sting when I stand too long.

@shortizzie, My bath isn't big enough...or I'm too big one or the other. But thanks. @peaceofheaven121 I will try. I've had my feet up for awhile and when I put them down to get up is when I noticed they were swollen.

@shortizzie, @lucylu2 Thank you. I will try to move more and try to elevate while I'm sitting. And I'll call the Dr in the am and see about getting an appointment.

@newbee2016, it could make it worse but if the swelling is worse on the left if definitely go get checked out and make sure evetything is okay.. I know when I was working EMS that was never a good thing especially when you where retaining only on one side.. almost everything has salt some more then others and increase your water intake

I don't use salt. But I guess things have salt in them already huh.....I work at a job where I sit most of the day right now. Is that going to make it worse?
