swollen ankles

I don't believe thr burn has anything to do with it. Secondly they say ever pregnancy is different even with the same woman. Have you tried drinking more water and cutting out salt/pop? Thats what they made me do and I swelled so bad that I went on bedrest.

My ankles swell after I've been on my feet for a while. Just go easy on salt and prop your feet up above heart-level for a while. It's just water retention. However, if your ankles, hands and face are swollen, and you feel dizzy, have headaches or see spots you need to go to a doctor. Those are signs of preclampsia and can be very serious.

I don't drink pop and they told me to add more salt as i was getting extremly bad leg cramps.

my ankles are actually sore there that swollen and there turning a funny shade of blue ive had left higher than my hear since 3 this after noon but they seem to be getting worse ??

any thoughts

Hmm, they shouldn't be turning blue. You can call the labor and delivery area of your hospital and explain it to them. They're usually pretty good about answering my questions. It may be something you need to go in for.

thank you!
i'll phone them now! im there tommorrow anyway

You're most welcome. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Good luck!

no problem, they've told me to get them even higher drink plenty of water and see the doctor tommorrow! got my measuresments for such a tiny bump :)

I've had swelling for the first time with this pregnancy (this is my 4th) and I'm 32 weeks. I know being in the heat can make the swelling worse. Also try soaking your feet in cold water, that seems to help me some.
