Is there anything I can do
about it,

Keeping your feet up, taking regular naps, drinking more fluids, increasing
protein intake, taking baths . . . these are all things I have read, and some

It CAN be an indicator of pre-eclampsia, but it is also a regular and normal
part of most pregnancies. With my first pregnancy I began to swell at four or
five months and remained ridiculously swollen throughout the pregnancy, with
BPs around 100/60 the whole time. There's just no telling.
