I'm 37 weeks and I'm experiencing swollen feet and swollen hands ! Does any one know why ?

Yes swelling can be a sign of preclampsia. This is why checking your blood pressure is important. additional signs are. vomiting, blurry vision, flashes of lights, floaters in eyes, upper abdominal pain and headaches that wont go away. if your only symptom is swelling. it is not likely. but monitor closely.

Swollen feet are a common occurrence during pregnancy, especially toward the end of the third trimester, or the 35th week of pregnancy. In most cases, swelling of the feet is normal and not a cause for concern. In other cases, your doctor should be notified immediately. Swelling is typically due to an increase in fluid that is retained while you are pregnant. Twenty-five percent of weight gained during pregnancy is a result of fluid retention.

make sure its not preclampsia (didn't spell right I'm sure ) if you press on your leg and goes white and takes longer than 10/seconds to regain color I'd call my Dr

part of pregnancy typically especially that far along. water retention. elevate your feet. but keep an eye on your blood pressure as well!! almost there mama
