yup! Smile my feet started swelling first and for the past two weeks my legs have. my hands swole when i was about 24weeks! say to ur mw though so they can monitor it. have u any headaches/visual disturbances/pain below bra at the front? if so ring mw asap. apparently its quite common for excess fluid and it can travel up ur back. thank god ive only a week to go!

Do you mean amniotic fluid or just discharge? If its the former it should decrease a bit in late pregnancy I think. If its the latter, that is normal as long as its not white and itchy (thrush) or with a "distinctive smell" which could indicate infection or leaking amniotic fluid (it's probably not that though).
