I know I had some water retention but out and out swelling not really. I've never had to take off rings or buy wider/bigger shoes etc.. I keep hearing of the heat making you swell and since I am due in June I am keeping my fingers crossed that I don't this time around as well! --?

I don't have any swelling that is noticeable to others, in fact I don't think I have any swelling so to speak but maybe some water retention....I don't look swollen, The reason I think I may have some water retention is because my wedding ring is tight, but my fingers don't look swollen at all. My other rings fit but my ring finger is very small and the rings I wear on it are sized a bit more fitted to prevent them form slipping off. I haven't noticed any swelling in my feet or ankles (yet!) I think my face is a little swollen. I don't have a round face so it's not in my cheeks, but I look chubbier in the chin and jaw area.

swelling
I think some people swell up, and others don't. I really have
absolutely no idea why. One of my husbands co-workers swelled up so badly she had to buy shoes 2 sizes bigger than her normal size and couldn't wear any rings after 20 wks. But then she had a very complicated pregnancy. I'm closing in on 27 wks and have had little or no noticable swelling. I think it can be normal either way. But swelling up too much is also a symptom of pre-eclampcia (sp?) I believe.

Some people just don't swell up, like me. Others do under certain circumstances (hot, humid weather is a great one) and you really can't predict which you'll be. My sister swelled up a LOT with both her pregnancies, I didn't with any of mine. And to answer a couple of your questions in another thread, the GBS test is fairly standard in Australian hospitals if you are a public patient, not necessarily if you are private, it is generally done at around 34-36 weeks, and you shouldn't be offered an internal exam unless there is a reason to assume you are (or should be) dilating. When I was seeing an OB with my first pregnancy I was given an internal at my request at 39 weeks because I asked for an induction at 41 weeks, with the second I was given one at 37.5 weeks because I was going to be induced at 38.5 weeks, with the third it was never an option. -- Cheryl Mum to DS#1 (11 Mar 99), DS#2 (4 Oct 00) and DD (30 Jul 02) |

Round puffy cheeks, round arms, round bust, round butt, round calves and Flintstone-esque feet. I'm The Amazing Puffy Woman, already, and from experience, I suspect it's going to get worse. Last time I was pregnant, I peed away 40 pounds in the ten days after delivery. I deflated. Donna (shaking head) |

In fact, I lost so much weight both times that my rings were falling off. debbie |
