Swelling
So the past couple of days I have been waking up with my feet swollen....
Has anyone else experienced this, and if so, what have your doctors said? Like I said in one of my other threads, I do get to see the doctor today so I'm going to talk to him about it....
I'm just nervous that he's gonna tell me that I'm going to need a C since I'm waking up with it and it's not happening after a whole day of work.....

Re: Swelling
Add me to the swelling list. I now have tree trunks instead of ankles. My doctor didn 't really have anything to say about this. Curios what yours had to say.

I wake up swollen in the morning too. My Dr isn't overly concerned.

Re: Swelling
Well when I had my appt today.... he was totally cool - all my tests were in the normal range, and he just said that it was the norm swelling. Had there been any protein in my urine or anything tho, it would have been a diff story!
Can we say.... PHEWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!

Re: Swelling
Be careful! During my 1st PG, I had sweeling pretty bad and the doctor kept telling me that I was "okay" because the "tests" came back okay Stay away from salt and try to keep your feet up as much as possible. It only got worse, so take care of yourself. I would hate to see anyone go through what I went through

awwww thank you sweetie!
it was wierd - i actually woke up with it this morning, and that's why I was a little concerned about it. I did munch down on some Doritos the other night after *someone* so kindly mentioned them .... I'm thinking it was them that didn't help!
I will be kinder to my body now....

Re: Swelling
I have heard that having good protein intake and water as well actually helps this.

that's a huge prob for me right now.... since my doc is against me having tuna, and i have a TOTAL aversion for anything poultry....
there's only so much beef a girl can eat!
