swelling

anyone else dealing with this lovely symptom? the swelling all of a sudden hit me within the last week (I am in the middle of my 37th week). I can only wear flip flops (thank goodness my job is ok with this!), my fingers look like sausages at times and hurts to bend them.. i have been trying to increase my water intake the last few days and it hasn't seemed to help.. i feel like the stay puft marshmallow man Chat Icon sorry just a vent!

Re: swelling

Oh i remember swelling. It sucks!! The only plus side is that your near the end. Try to drink lots of water, it does help it slightly and put your feet up as much as possible.

Re: swelling

You are lucky this didn't start until now! It's been REALLY hot this week and I definitely started getting more swelling, esp in my hands. And carpal tunnel along with it. Chat Icon

Try to drink more water...but you really don't have too much longer to go!!!! Hang in there!!
