Ok so, just got in from work and I dnt think my legs and ankles have ever been so swollen. And they hurt..unbelievably. I've not felt well all day, been going dizzy, sick and hot. I've noticed past few days my ankles being swollen. I'm only 16 +3 weeks.

Drink more water and wear flight socks/ maternity support tights. If you have headaches/ any visualdisturbance call your midwife to get checked for pre eclampsia. In fact with dizziness get checked anyway. Watch your salt intake.

If you sit at a desk, get up every half hour and all around. Try sitting with your feet up (talk to your work about footstool or similar). Have you done work place risk assessment yet?

No I work in a pub, just saturday nights and cash in hand n wt not. He said I can finish work whenever I want. And well I developed pre clampsia with my first born. I do drink a lot of water, have gone off fizzy pop quite a bit n love dilute squash. So drink tht with water obviously all the time.
