i'm sorry to hear what you're going through. it's probably rather alarming. some swelling of the feet and ankles is common with pregnancy. however if you have been diagnosed with preeclampsia and this swelling is new i would suggest you contact your ob-gyn to let him or her know of this development. the fluid retention in your lower limbs may be nothing to worry about. and then again it might be. your best bet is to not try diagnosing this yourself. let your doctor do it. if you've been diagnosed with preeclampsia and experience sudden swelling of the hands arms or face then you should contact your doctor right away. wishing you and your baby well!
family history of kidney cancer eclamptic with pregnancy now have swollen feet/ank that wont go away should i worry?
