Swelling

[Desertrose]

Hiya

Has any one had any problems with their hands / fingers swelling ? my hands have been swelling up really bad all week end to the point i can't get my rings off. It only seems to last for an hour or so then it goes down again.

Also my legs are itching like mad.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

this might be best of being posted int he tri you are currently in. but i will answer with what i think anyway.

swelling and itching can be normal, but i would get your MW to check your liver functions to check for OC due to the itching. not 100% about the swelling though.

pop a damp flannel in the fridge for a bit and use that to cool your hands and legs down.

I've got swelling in my feet and ankles...

How soon after having baby does it stop happening?? It's driving me bonkers!
