Swelling...

[Panda12345]

I’m 29 weeks today and in the last week the swelling has really picked up. Does anyone have tips to bring it down? So far I’m drinking water and walking but hoping for a magic cure! My hands are the worst, it feels like my nails are bruised from the pressure. And my feet are beautiful!

If it is really bad you should see your midwife for a proper check up.

I second the above - it can be a sign of pre-eclampsia so best to get it checked out. Especially if it's constant.

Otherwise, not an awful lot you can do about it 😬 can try massaging the swollen areas, that might give you some relief.
