my feet and ankles are swelling up by evening and it looks scary honestly. im 28 weeks. what causes this swelling? is it normal ya should i be worried? anyone went through this?
My doctor explained that during pregnancy, your body produces about 50% more blood and body fluids to meet the needs of the developing baby. This extra fluid can accumulate in your tissues, especially in your hands, face, legs, and feet. Also, the growing uterus puts pressure on your veins, which can cause fluid to pool. It's usually normal but report any sudden swelling.
Meri saas ne toh bataya tha ki yeh 'paani bhar jaana' normal hai pregnancy mein. Body mein blood volume badh jaata hai na, aur baby ke liye bhi extra fluid chahiye hota hai. Bas zyada der khade mat raho aur pair thode upar rakho jab leti ho. Thoda namak kam khao, woh bhi bolte the.
Edema can be quite normal, but please discuss it with your doctor at your next appointment. Sometimes it's just fluid retention, but in some cases, it can be a sign of something else, especially if it's sudden or severe. It's always best to be vigilant and get medical advice, just to rule out any complications.
Haha, my feet are officially cankles now! I think it's mostly extra fluid your body holds, plus gravity. And maybe all those salty chips I crave don't help, lol. But yeah, totally normal. Just try to put your feet up whenever you can, even when watching TV.
Ho na, edema toh bahut common hai pregnancy mein. Body mein extra blood aur fluids hote hain, aur baby ko bhi support karna hota hai. Isliye pair aur haath thode swell ho jaate hain. Bas zyada der khade mat raho aur rest karo ho na.
It's a common part of this beautiful journey, beta. Your body is working hard to create a new life, and sometimes it holds onto extra water. Just remember to take good care of yourself, stay positive, and if it bothers you a lot, speak to your doctor. God bless you and your little one.
Oh god, I remember how much I worried about my swollen feet! My doc said it's usually just your body holding onto more fluid for the baby, and the pressure from the uterus. But I would constantly check it. If it's sudden or just one leg, definitely call your gynac immediately, okay? Otherwise, just try to elevate your feet.
