I have my 36 week Dr appointment tomorrow. This last week I started getting swelling in my ankles and feet. It was pretty bad but I was constantly on my feet, getting things ready for my daughters 4th birthday party. Yesterday I called the on call Dr and he told me to drink lots of water and prop my feet. so I did and it went down dramatically. My friend is still bugging me to go see my Dr early because of Preeclampsia. she's making me nervous. Does the swelling go down if its preeclampsia? Should I be worried? My BP has been great at every visit. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

When the swelling is extreme and you also have high blood pressure or you have blood/protein in your urine...that's when your doctor gets concerned about preeclampsia. If the swelling went down dramatically I wouldn't worry just yet. Your doctor will let you know tomorrow. Seriously get plenty of water and elevate those legs though. Swelling is just a bunch of water retention.
Contractions are 9 minutes apart and painful... On way to hospital my dr already called said to go straight to registration, so they can check me in then they will take me to maternity... Getting anxious..
Admitted in labor & delivery due to high bp, excessive swelling on face, feet, ankles, legs, hands and severe headaches "sign of preeclampsia" doc wants to wait anotherrrr week to induce me. Bed resting until then 😩 im beyond exhausted!!! Oh.. And that's my mother in the background 👯
What are symptoms of preeclampsia? Everyone keeps telling me that the swelling on my feet and hands aren't normal and to go get checked but I would hate to go to the ER for nothing😔
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Called dr office. Even though i have a csection in 3 days i dont know if i should be concerned about significant swelling in my legs and they are turning purple and my feet blood red, when i sit and stand.
Thank you @raegenice! I definitely will.
