Im in my 7th month and my feet and ankles have gone so puffy by evening, even my chappals feel tight. Is this just a normal pregnancy thing or something i should mention to my gynac? a little worried na.
I've heard from my pregnant friends that mild swelling in feet is very normal due to extra fluids. But since it can sometimes relate to blood pressure, it might be a good idea to gently mention it to your doctor during your next visit.
Actually yaar, my feet looked like little balloons by the 8th month! It's super common, but if the swelling is very sudden or on your face and hands, definitely call your gynac just to be safe.
Mild swelling is common, but you must always check with your gynac to rule out any high BP issues. It is always better to be cautious and get a professional opinion than to ignore it.
I totally understand how uncomfortable it feels when your feet swell up, dear. While mild swelling is very common as your body holds water, please do mention it to your gynac to ensure your blood pressure is perfectly fine. Take care of yourself.
Please be very careful with swelling. I had sudden swelling along with high blood pressure in my third trimester, which became a complication. I strongly advise you to check with your doctor immediately to monitor your BP levels.
Swelling in the feet is quite common in the later months, but it's always best to keep your doctor informed. They will check your blood pressure to make sure everything is normal and safe.
