Swelling

[Minime]

The other day my right leg got really swollen then my left followed suit a couple of days later. I ruled out pre-eclampsia and DVT as had no other symptoms. I was sat there and had my hand between my legs below the knee and when I moved it I had a very very deep perfect imprint of my entire hand on one leg and the back of my hand on the other. Kind of like you putting your hand into dough. It looked totally bizarre! Me, OH and DD were all poking it!

MW assures me this is normal and water retention which is what I thought so you ladies approaching the cankles stage watch out for this little gem

Ooooh I used to love play dough

Will definitely look forward to this....I have been lucky I think as so far no swelling.....but I got a feeling its just a matter of weeks. Even my fingers haven' got ay bigger yet...but thats prob cos I had fat fingers in the first place
