    Very normal during pregnancy, you might even get the tingly feeling in your hands in the morning, drink lots of water and try elevating your feet as much as possible its worked for me..

Its probably nothing to worry about but i'd get it checked out just incase as it can be a sign of pre-eclampsia.

mild swelling is common in pregnancy but if you think it's severe and it lasts more than 24-48 hours then you should definitely call your doctor as this can be a sign of preeclampsia. and please drink lots of water...

welcome to pregnancy, honey :) we all swell up like balloons, but if you think it's excessive, talk to your midwife; if 'better safe than sorry' applies to anything, pregnancy is it! congratulations (on the baby, not the swelling! LOL!) x

no i havent had this and ive had 3 children but i think every one put on a little weight but if your worried speak to your midwife

Its normal if you don't have high blood pressure and protein.. make sure they are ok or otherwise the swelling can be a sign of something serious ~MeL~

People can look puffier, but if you have swelling you need to talk to your doctor right away. In fact, you should just call and ask about it anyway. Weight gain is one thing, but swelling is another. Swelling could be a serious sign. Talk to the doctor about it.

Yes,it is pretty common.Mostly it's nothing to worry about,but get it checked anyway as it could be a symptom to something underlying. You may find this link helpful.http://www.babycentre.co.uk/pregnancy/antenatalhealth/naturalremedies/swelling/ Good luck with your pregnancy. :O)
