Q: 9weeks 6 days and swelling?

I noticed yesterday that my feet were swollen....With my first pregnancy I had pre-eclampsia. But that didn't become detected until after 20+ weeks. Two pregnancies followed without any complications. I am now 33 and pregnant with my 4th and notice that I am showing significantly, morning sickness is horrible, everything seems to be heightened. I am just worried about the swelling so early on...it was very hot yesterday and I was active and on my feet. Has anyone else experienced this?

I just turned 17 weeks but have been struggling with it since about 15 weeks. It's been brutal here as far as heat, but I'm indoors most of the time so I wouldn't think it'd be such a thing for me. My doc didn't seemed concerned for me but it is uncomfortable. I've been upping my water uptake and I squeeze a whole lemon on my water one to two time a day because I heard that helps (either way it's good for ya). GL and hope it gets better soon.

Hello Mrs Smith,
Congratulations, as much usual any other symptoms of pregnancy are, as are the swollen feet. It is not unknown a fact that nevertheless not all women feel the same amount of swellig in the feet, while some does! As we all know already, pregnancy is a unique experience for every women, so it is better if you try to stay calm. Swollen feet occurs due to decreased circulation in your kower limbs. For over comig this situation you can wear the specially reated accupressure socks online. And wear these as much long as you can! This will surely improve your circulation, and make your feet less painful.

Hi, I am 21 weeks. in my first trimester I did notice some of my sneakers were not as comfortable as they used to be. Also, I wear socks with my toms and it feels tighter with socks on. Just try to make sure your not eating a lot of salty things and when your home keep your feet elevated.
