@mspeece, we live in Alaska. My hubby is from here so I moved after we had our 1st baby. I love it, it's just really effin cold!!! Definetly homesick for the past 6 years. I mostly miss the food ohhhh, what I would do for some squid luau lol

oh okay thank you!!! how are you liking the mainland? i bet your homesick!!!@graciebaby

I'm originally from Maui, moved 2 AK because the hubby is from here. Nice 2 see another local on here! Try cutting out the salts like shoyu. Drink loads of water-even if u feel like ur going to the bathroom every 1/2 an hour. Elevate your feet above your heart, helps w circulation. If u can, try to take 10 min walks after u eat-if u decide 2 eat something salty, also flush w water. Good luck! I had pre clampsia w my 1st pregnancy, make sure there's no.protein in ur urine w ur doc and ur BP is good.
