Swelling in Hands - 39 weeks

[marie201]

I'm 39 weeks today.

Just got home and noticed that my hands are quite swollen to the point that I can't get my wedding ring off which is usually a little loose.

Decided to weigh myself also and since the 7th I've put on 5lb which seems rather a lot tbh.

Should I be concerned or just see if my hands go down this aft/evening?

I have no other symptoms i.e. no blurred vision, headache or pain under my ribs.

Might be worth a call to triage, could be just standard late pregnancy swelling but doesn't hurt to check with them if you're at all concerned xx

Get checked to be on safe side, I had rapid weight gain from 36 weeks and swelling, they found Hugh levels of protein in urine indicating pre eclampsia. It's one of those things that can come randomly at the end of pregnancy x
