My feet feel a tiny bit puffy by evening lately and im in my second trimester. Just wondering when does this water retention usually kick in for most people? Want to know what to expect ahead.
For most it picks up in the later months, like third trimester, feet and ankles especially. Mild puffiness is normal. But if swelling comes on suddenly or with headache or blurry vision, call your gynac right away, dont wait.
I am in my 5th month and my feet feel a bit puffy already, is that too early? Reading that it usually increases later makes me feel better. Did anyone else notice mild swelling around now?
Mine started around the 7th month, my feet would swell by evening after standing. Putting legs up and drinking water actually helped, sounds opposite but it does. It eased after delivery quickly for me.
Some swelling later in pregnancy is normal, but I will say this from experience, sudden swelling in face and hands with high BP needs immediate doctor attention. Mine was checked and watched closely. Please dont ignore quick or severe swelling.
