Swollen eyes can be a sign of fluid retention, which is quite common in pregnancy, especially as you progress. However, if the swelling is sudden, severe, or accompanied by headaches or vision changes, you should definitely call your doctor immediately to rule out anything serious.
Swollen eyes, haan? I think I was so busy craving every possible snack, I barely noticed my eyes, haha! But seriously, fluid retention is common, maybe a little less salty food and more water?
Our bodies go through so many changes during pregnancy, and some swelling is quite common, even in the face and eyes sometimes. It's usually just fluid retention. Keep yourself hydrated and elevated rest can sometimes help. You're doing great!
Yes, beti, my mom used to tell me that swelling, even around the eyes, is quite common in pregnancy due to all the changes in your body. She used to put cool compresses for me. But if it's too much or sudden, always tell your gynac right away, okay?
