Swollen ankles

37 weeks today my ankles/feet/calves are swollen. I’ve spoken to the midwife and she said it’s totally normal. Today my legs are feeling bruised to the touch like someone has kicked my shins. Currently got my legs raised. Just wondering if anyone else is having this? And if anyone has any tips

I'm 38+5 and my ankles have swollen today x

I’d ring triage/delivery suite as too much swelling can be a sign of preeclampsia

I’ve got same… I’m 38+2, went to triage to check for pre eclampsia but everything is fine, they told me that they would worry more about swelling around face and hands.
