Swollen ankles and purple feet
The past few days my ankles having been swelling up by end of day and my feet have been turning purple. I am on my feet most of the day and have chalked it up to that but has anyone else experienced this? I had my blood drawn to check for pre eclampsia like 2 weeks ago and there was no signs so I don’t think it’s that but it’s starting to worry me a little.
My whole body was so swollen by the end of my pregnancy, it’s basically your body producing fluid to separate all your joints so your pelvis can come apart when you give birth. Pre eclampsia comes with serious headaches so if you’re swollen without the headaches then you should be ok. If you’re having really bad headaches then you need to see your midwife and potentially go on bed rest x
