Hey Ladies, Hope u all had a great weekend. My ankles have been swelling a bit and hurting. Mainly my left one and my left knee also. Get really hot and burning. Did have probs occasionally with knee before pregnancy so maybe the extra weight is bringing the problem back on. Also with my foot, when I walk It feels like a vein in bottom is going to explode, if u know what I mean.. My fingers are swelling a bit but not too bad and only occasionally. Not getting as many headaches anymore , touch wood. dont feel sick or anything so cant see it being anything too serious. Anyone have any input?? ------------- http://pregnancyplanet.net/tickers/">

hows your blood pressure? when did you last get it checked? some swelling is ok, but if you have headaches and high blood pressure etc.. its not always so good.
if in doubt ring your midwife for a check up (of blood pressure etc...) it cant hurt if you are worried. take care

I would say it's definitely something to get checked out, try not to panic, but at least ring your midwife and ask her what she thinks as swelling can be a sign of other things. ------------- Jacquie - Mama to Erin, 13.07.06 - Chief Cat Chaser & Marmite Sammie Eater
